For 2025, the Ram 1500 continues to redefine what a full-size pickup truck can be, combining cutting-edge performance with next-level comfort. Already known for its smooth ride and impressive capabilities, the latest iteration of this popular truck comes with significant upgrades that will keep it at the top of the segment. From a new range-topping Tungsten trim to an overhauled engine lineup, the 2025 Ram 1500 is poised to deliver on every front, appealing to both workhorse truck enthusiasts and luxury-seeking drivers.
One of the most notable changes for 2025 is the introduction of Ram’s new twin-turbocharged 3.0-liter inline-six engine, known as the Hurricane. This engine replaces the outgoing Hemi V-8 and comes in two variants: one producing 420 horsepower and the other an impressive 540 horsepower. Paired with an eight-speed automatic transmission, this new powerplant delivers the same torque-heavy punch that truck owners expect while also improving fuel efficiency and lowering emissions.
For those looking for a base engine, Ram offers a 3.6-liter V-6, generating 305 horsepower with assistance from a 48-volt hybrid system. While this setup provides adequate power for everyday tasks, the twin-turbo option is the real star for those looking for more muscle.
On the road, the 2025 Ram 1500 is remarkably refined. Thanks to its coil-spring rear suspension—a unique feature in the segment—the ride quality is smoother and more composed than competitors like the Ford F-150 or Chevrolet Silverado, which rely on traditional leaf springs. Opting for the available air suspension enhances comfort even further, offering adjustable ride heights that improve off-road capabilities and fuel economy.
The Ram 1500’s cabin continues to set the bar for comfort in the full-size pickup segment. With ample space for passengers and innovative storage solutions, it remains one of the most versatile trucks on the market. The rear seats in crew cab models are especially spacious, offering as much legroom as many large SUVs.
Ram’s unique split-folding tailgate adds extra flexibility when loading and unloading cargo, while two available bed sizes—5-foot-7-inch and 6-foot-4-inch—ensure you have enough room for your gear. Whether you’re hauling tools for work or luggage for a weekend getaway, the Ram 1500 is designed to handle it all.
For those who crave adventure, the 2025 Ram 1500 Rebel stands ready to conquer challenging terrains. This off-road-oriented trim comes equipped with beefed-up suspension components, skid plates, and rugged tires, making it the perfect companion for venturing beyond paved roads. Whether you’re navigating rocky trails or sandy dunes, the Rebel’s enhanced ground clearance and four-wheel-drive system ensure you’re well-prepared for the challenge.
Ram has always excelled in offering a refined driving experience, but with the introduction of the Tungsten trim, the 2025 Ram 1500 now sits at the pinnacle of truck luxury. Priced at nearly $90,000, this model is not for the faint of heart, but for those willing to invest, it delivers a cabin experience that rivals high-end luxury SUVs.
Inside the Tungsten, you’ll find quilted leather upholstery, a suede headliner, and 24-way adjustable front seats with massage functions. But the luxury doesn’t stop at comfort there’s also modern tech, including a 23-speaker Klipsch audio system that envelops the cabin in crystal-clear sound. Ambient lighting, genuine wood trim, and a panoramic roof round out the features, ensuring that even the longest drives are enjoyable.
The available hands-free active driving assist (ADA) is a standout feature, perfect for longer hauls. Using sensors, cameras, and radar, this system helps maintain a set speed and safe distance from vehicles ahead while also keeping the truck centered within its lane.
Navigating into tight parking spots is also a breeze with the available ParkSense® Automated Parking System, which uses advanced sensors to detect parking spots. Once engaged, it takes over gear selection, throttle, and braking to guide the truck into parallel or perpendicular spots with ease.
For those driving long distances, the available Drowsy Driver Detection system monitors for signs of fatigue. If the system detects that the driver is drowsy, it will issue both visual and audible alerts, recommending that the driver take a rest.
For added safety, the available evasive steering assist comes into play if a potential frontal collision is detected by the Forward Collision Warning System. This feature aids the driver in making a quick lane change when necessary by providing steering support to avoid the hazards.
When approaching intersections, the available Intersection Collision Assist System is there to help prevent accidents. It provides an audible warning when danger is detected and can automatically apply emergency braking if needed to avoid a collision.
Meanwhile, Traffic Sign Recognition is another innovative feature that scans for road signs and displays them directly on the Driver Information Digital Cluster or Head-Up Display if equipped, helping the driver stay informed and compliant with traffic
These features complement the Ram 1500’s existing safety suite, including standard automated emergency braking with pedestrian detection, blind-spot monitoring with rear cross-traffic alert, and available adaptive cruise control with hands-free driving mode. Together, they offer comprehensive safety and convenience for every journey.
Ram continues to set the standard for in-cabin technology with an upgraded infotainment system. For 2025, the Ram 1500 comes standard with a massive 12.0-inch touchscreen, but for those who desire even more, an optional 14.5-inch display is available. Both systems are seamlessly compatible with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, ensuring smooth connectivity and an intuitive interface for all your apps, music, and communication needs.
For an elevated experience, the new Ram Digital Key allows owners to leave traditional keys behind. With this feature, you can add a digital key to a compatible iPhone® or Apple Watch®, giving you the ability to access and start the truck without removing your device from your pocket. The digital key can be shared with other Apple® devices, and a smart card with near-field communication technology is provided as a backup, ensuring that you’re never locked out.
For those who want a clear view of what’s behind their trailer, the Digital Rearview Mirror with Tow Mode offers a live video stream from a trailer-mounted rear-facing camera, providing an added layer of visibility. You can also keep track of your trailer's health with the Integrated Trailer Health Monitor, which displays key towing and performance features on the Driver Information Digital Cluster Display.
The telescopic trailer tow mirrors are an invaluable feature when towing larger loads. These mirrors extend and retract for better visibility and come with forward and reverse spotter functionality. Paired with the available Mirror-Mounted Camera System, they provide a comprehensive view of your surroundings, making towing safer and easier. To assist even further when reversing, Trailer Reverse Guidance with Dynamic Gridlines displays the predicted trajectory of your trailer on the Uconnect® 5 NAV touchscreen, while an audible warning alerts you in case of a potential jackknife condition.
The 2025 Ram 1500 is also packed with innovative features designed to make towing easier. The available Trailer Auto Hitch Assist helps you hitch up quickly and effortlessly by steering the vehicle into alignment with the trailer tongue while you control the brakes and throttle. This smart technology ensures precise hitching every time.
Finally, for the modern driver who relies heavily on their devices, the 2025 Ram 1500 offers class-exclusive dual wireless charging pads. These are conveniently placed in the cabin, allowing both the driver and passenger to keep their smartphones charged and ready for use.
When it comes to towing and payload capacity, the Ram 1500 is certainly no slouch, though it falls slightly behind top competitors like the Ford F-150 and Chevrolet Silverado. The 2025 Ram 1500 offers a maximum towing capacity of 11,580 pounds and a payload rating of 2,300 pounds. While this won’t set any new records, it’s more than enough for the majority of truck owners.
For those who need even more towing power, Ram is introducing a plug-in hybrid variant, the Ramcharger, which offers a best-in-class towing capacity of 14,000 pounds. There’s also the heavy-duty Ram 2500 and 3500 models, which offer maximum towing capacities exceeding 37,000 pounds, ideal for drivers with extremely demanding towing needs.
With its refreshed design, innovative engine lineup, and a new focus on luxury, the 2025 Ram 1500 remains a top choice for truck buyers. Whether you’re looking for off-road adventure, work-ready capabilities, or a high-end cabin experience, the Ram 1500 offers it all. While it may not lead the pack in towing capacity, its balance of performance, comfort, and technology ensures it will continue to dominate the full-size pickup market.
