Four engine options pair with an 8-speed automatic transmission: the 3.6L Pentastar® V6 with eTorque, the returning 5.7L HEMI® V8 with eTorque, and standard-output and high-output versions of the twin-turbocharged 3.0L Hurricane inline-six. The high-output Hurricane powers Limited, Limited Longhorn®, Tungsten, and RHO configurations, while the standard-output engine serves several midrange trims. Each offers a different balance of acceleration, hauling capability, and power delivery.

Available trailer brake controllers and integrated hitch equipment support demanding towing applications.

Cargo boxes measure 53.8 cu. ft. with the 5-foot-7-inch bed and 61.3 cu. ft. with the 6-foot-4-inch bed. Available rear under-seat compartments and in-floor storage bins accommodate smaller belongings. Higher trims introduce ventilated rear seating, authentic wood, premium leather, and massaging front seats, with Tungsten delivering the most elaborate cabin treatment.
