2025 Ram 1500-1

2025 Ram 1500:  2025 marks the end of yet another fantastic chapter for the Ram 1500, a truck that consistently ranks well in terms of cabin elegance and ride comfort. This time Ram take a risk by swapping out the classic Hemi V8 for a brand new twin turbo inline six.

While that might sound like a shock to the loyalists the new powertrain proves Ram’s focus on efficiency, refinement, and long-term sustainability. Thankfully none of this evolution comes at the cost of the Ram’s trademark smooth ride or upscale interior feel.

Five Things We Love About the 2025 Ram 1500

Introducing the Mighty Hurricane

The replacement more than makes up for the loss of the Hemi. The brand-new 3 liter inline-six Hurricane twin-turbo engine produce an amazing 420 horsepower and 469 lb ft of torque. A high-output variant capable of reaching 540 horsepower is available for individuals seeking even greater power.
For base model Ram also keeps its 3.6-liter V6 engine, which produces a respectable 305 horsepower and is mated to a seamless 8-speed automatic transmission. The outcome? A perfect balance of power, manners and fuel economy.

Segment-Leading Ride Comfort

Because of its coil spring rear suspension the Ram has long been lauded for its comfortable ride. That reputation is maintained in the 2025 model. Even the opulent Tungsten option with its enormous 22-inch wheels, can provide a remarkably calm ride.
The handling is still easy, predictable and well-weighted—everything you would anticipate from a premium full-size pickup.

Easy Towing

Ram didn’t forget what matters most to truck owners. The torque of the Hurricane engine facilitates easier and more seamless hauling. It easily managed a 7,300-pound Airstream trailer during tests.
Although it is slightly less powerful than its Ford and GM competitors, its maximum towing capacity of 11,580 pounds is still sufficient for the majority of real-world applications.

Good Off-Road Confidence

The Ram 1500 Rebel is still a genuine off road fighter. It can easily handle rocky routes with to its locking rear differential, adjustable air suspension and 33-inch mud-terrain tires.
On muddy routes and difficult climbs, the Hurricane engine’s increased low-end torque offers it even more muscle. On both highway and mountain trails, this truck is just as comfy.

Upper-Grade Cabin Class

Ram’s interior game has always been class-leading, and for 2025 they’ve pushed it even further. With its faux suede headliner, actual wood and metal details, and stitched leather upholstery the Tungsten trim is a masterwork of craftsmanship.
The best part? 24-way power adjustable front seat with heating, cooling and massaging capabilities. On the inside it feels more like a high end SUV than a pickup.

Three Things That We Don’t Love

Too Familiar Looks

The 2025 Ram has slimmer body lines a new grille and redesigned headlight but overall the look is relatively similar. You won’t be able to detect the difference if you park it next to the 2024 model. It would have stood out even more with a more unique exterior upgrade.

Lane Departure Warning Goes Full Vigilante

Good intentions, but poorly executed: this lane-departure system is very sensitive yet too overtly crawling onto you-yes, even when it is set to the most soft-spoken sensitivity. But it is easily disabled with the touch of one button on the main screen.

Vertically Arranged Touchscreens

Ram new 14.5-inch vertically oriented touchscreen looks high-tech but might take time to get used to. Some drivers find it less ergonomic compared to the older horizontal layout. It’s crisp and fast but can feel overwhelming during on-road use.
