Ready for tough jobs and reliable on road trips, the 2025 RAM 1500 redefines what full-size pickups can be by offering multiple engine options, next-level technology for both work and play, and plenty of first-class interior comforts that all make it worthy of a test drive here at our dealership.
Strong Engine Performance
Along with available four-wheel drive, this pickup offers three engines, with a 305-horsepower 3.6-liter serving as the base engine. This engine produces 269 pound-feet of torque and has a 2,370-pound payload capacity, the most in the lineup. The second engine, a 420-horsepower 3.0-liter I-6 with 469 pound-feet of torque, has the strongest towing, pulling up to 11,550 pounds. The third option is a high-output variant of this engine that has the most output, 540 horsepower and 521 pound-feet of torque.
Comfort and Convenience
The truck’s interior comes with standard air conditioning, rear-seat heat ducts, and power front windows with 1-touch up/down. The base model has a 40/20/40 split bench seat, though bucket seats with heating and ventilation functions are available for select trims, as well as dual-zone climate control. The standard rear folding seat can be swapped out for an available 60/40 split-folding one, and seating fabric options among the many trims range from deluxe cloth to premium quilted leather.
Designed for Tough Jobs
The truck’s locking tailgate comes with a dampening feature, and in select trims you can opt for a convenient multi-function tailgate that has swing-out doors for closer access, though it can also be dropped like a conventional tailgate. This can be complemented by the optional RamBox Cargo Management System in many upper trims, two lockable bins that attach to both sides of the bed, and options like a tri-fold tonneau cover, rear power-sliding window, deployable bed-step, and spray-in bedliner.
Next-Level Tech Features
One of this pickup’s many tech highlights is the standard Uconnect 5 infotainment system, which features an 8.4-inch touchscreen display and comes with navigation and a 12-inch touchscreen in select upper trim levels. Other standard offerings include Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility for wireless audio streaming, multiple USB ports for charging, push-button start, remote keyless entry, and a 4G LTE Wi-Fi hotspot that works with a paid data plan.
Safety for All Occasions
While on highways, a suite of standard safety and driver-assist features is ready to make drives safer in this pickup, which includes the Active Lane Management System, Blind Spot Monitoring with Cross-Path Detection, Full-Speed Forward-Collision Warning Plus, the Tire Pressure Monitoring Display, and Trailer Sway Damping. While in parking lots, the Parkview Rear Back Up Camera and ParkSense Front and Rear Park Assist, also standard, are sure to be appreciated, and the available Trailer Reverse Guidance simplifies trailer hook-ups.
