With the 2018 Ram 2500, you have a choice of one diesel or two kinds of gas engines. Each option has all the power you want to perform the toughest job. The efficient 5.7-liter HEMI V-8 engine comes standard under the Ram 2500's hood. Get outstanding airflow from a combination of aluminum cylinder heads and hemispherical combustion chambers, leading to maximum power and torque. Keep costs low with a recommended 10,000-mile oil change interval. The proven 6.7-liter turbodiesel I6 engine by Cummins offers 800 pound-feet of available, maximum torque. The legendary, heavy-duty 6.4-liter HEMI V-8 offers drivers available best-in-class 410 horsepower.

Chrysler engineered the Ram 2500 to perform outstandingly in the harshest conditions. Head off the beaten path with the off-road package loaded with all the power to push, pull and haul just about anything. In fact, the Ram 2500 can tow an impressive amount of weight: best-in-segment maximum of 17,980 pounds when outfitted with the turbodiesel V-8. That's plenty to tow your camper across the country — and then some. And for a superior ride on those long road trips, take advantage of the rear auto-level air suspension and class-exclusive coil rear five-link suspension.

Climb up into the Ram's sophisticated-yet-comfortable cockpit.

Loaded with AppleCar Play and Android Auto, think of your new 2500 as an office on the move. The rugged power of a Ram truck deceivingly hides the comfort of a luxury interior. Every surface has been shown the utmost attention to detail, and offers clever storage solutions and work-grade vinyl seats.
