The 2025 Ram 3500 is a powerful truck ready to handle all your heavy tasks. Whether you need it for heavy-duty work or extreme adventures, here are the reasons drivers love it.
Capable Engine Options
The Ram 3500 gives you the choice between two capable engines. The standard powertrain uses a 6.4L HEMI V8 engine that generates 405 horsepower and 429 pound-feet of torque. It pairs with a TorqueFlite8 eight-speed automatic transmission and rear-wheel drive to provide a towing capacity of up to 18,150 pounds when properly equipped. With this engine, the truck also has a payload capacity of up to 7,590 pounds.
If you have to tow heavier trailers, you can opt for the available high-output 6.7L Cummins Turbo Diesel I6 engine that pairs with a TorqueFlite HD eight-speed automatic transmission and generates 430 horsepower and 1,075 pound-feet of torque. With these specs, the truck provides a maximum payload capacity of 6,050 pounds, and it can tow up to 36,610 pounds.
Plenty of Configurations
When designing your truck, you can also select from a wide range of cab and bed configurations. If you need a work truck, the Tradesman and Big Horn models can be had with a regular cab that offers seats for up to three riders and an 8-foot bed that provides plenty of space for bulky cargo. Available across the lineup, the crew cab offers seats for up to six riders and can be had with the 8-foot bed or a shorter 6.4-foot bed for easier maneuverability.
In the Laramie and upper trims, the shorter bed can also be paired with a mega cab. Like the crew cab, the mega cab comes standard with seats for six riders, but it is more spacious for enhanced second-row comfort. This cab type pairs exclusively with four-wheel drive and can be customized with front bucket seats and luxury amenities.
Smart Technologies
Regardless of the cab type you prefer, each Ram 3500 model comes packed with modern technologies. The Uconnect 5 infotainment system integrates the Global Telematics Box Module for in-cabin connectivity and easy fleet management. Ram’s connected services are also standard across the lineup and include the Ram Connect app that allows you to operate various vehicle functions remotely.
Advanced driver assistance technologies include adaptive cruise control with stop-and-go and a ParkView rear backup camera that can help you avoid obstacles when parking or moving in reverse. A traction control system and trailer sway control are other standard features that boost your safety on the road.
