Ram 2500: Mighty Engine Performance
Take your pick between two immersive engine choices with the 2021 Ram 2500. The 6.4L HEMI® V8 is the standard motor on each Ram 2500 and is known for its impressive capabilities. The 410 horsepower is engineered to execute consistently powerful acceleration, and the 429 lb-ft of torque tops things off with its refinement from the moment you first start the truck.
Then there's the 6.7L Cummins® Turbo Diesel I6. This one is a get-up-and-go engine meant to deliver precision, responsiveness, and multirange transmission. Achieve a maximum 370 horsepower and 850 lb-ft of torque-a behemoth on both flat and rough surfaces. Its low noise and vibrations serve as a reminder of the power of Ram-even with a powerful engine.
Towing and Payload Capacities in the Ram 2500
Both available engine types are powerhouses in their own rights when managing towing and payload capacities. Achieve a maximum payload of 4,010 pounds and maximum towing of up to 17,540 pounds with the 6.4L HEMI® V8
Alternatively, the 6.7L Cummins® Turbo Diesel I6 one-ups the base engine by delivering a maximum towing capacity of up to 19,680 pounds. This next-level haul allows you to manage a colorful palette of items to pull, including:
- Large recreational boats
- Small RVs
- Camping trailers
In addition to the towing capacities, the available kick-out bed step offers a firm foothold underneath the rear bumper. With this accessory included, loading and unloading just became that much more of a breeze.
Ram 2500: Next-Generation Interior Tech
Whoever said the technology inside a pickup has to be run-of-the-mill? The Ram 2500 takes all that you know with interior design to surprise you with its brazen, modern-day overhaul. Take for example the Active Noise Cancellation system designed to block out exterior noise. Pretty neat, yeah?
Equally neat is the available 12-inch touchscreen display. It's not just the largest touchscreen in its class, but one of the most intuitive. Access navigation, make and receive phone calls, reply to texts with your voice, and more. Smartphone integration like Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ allows for seamless access to your favorite apps, too.
Oh, and you may want to consider the available Harman Kardon® Premium Audio System. The 900-watt 17-speaker set is something that will make your journeys that much better.
