The 2020 Ram 1500 is ready to redefine your workday, plain and simple. This mid-size truck boasts quite the legacy, traversing years of technological evolution beginning from the 1980s. Throughout the decades, the Ram has been a worthy pacesetter of truck design as well as a serial award-winner. This year’s truck continues with that momentum, all while dropping remarkable improvements in towing capabilities, off-roading, and more personalization choices than any of its predecessors.

1. Large Comfy Seats

The Ram 1500 wouldn’t be deemed a luxury vehicle if it didn’t deliver opulent comfort on long treks. It has some of the coziest seats of any truck you’ll find today, and the seats are ventilated and heated in the front and the rear. Seeing ventilated seats in the back of a pickup truck is beyond surprising, even in the six-figure price range. Not only are the back seats ventilated, but they are also huge.

2. Multifunction Tailgate Features and Dimensions

A re-invented multipurpose tailgate adds a bit of versatility to the already-powerful Ram 1500. This Ram truck is fitted with 60/40-split soft-open doors, a smart feature that gives you more flexibility when unloading or loading your pickup. Additional bed rarefactions, such as LED lighting and the RamBox Cargo Management System, cements the reputation of the Ram 1500 even more.

3. Luxury Interior

Step inside this steely truck, and you’ll find a tasteful, luxurious cabin area full of convenient amenities and high-end comfort. Standard tech, safety, and interior features include:

  • Heated and ventilated front seats
  • Leather-trimmed seating
  • Heated and leather-strapped wheel
  • Remote start system
  • Push-button start
  • Cross path detection

4. Smooth Driving Experience

The Ram 1500’s ride quality is nearly perfect compared to all other trucks with a five-link coil-spring back suspension. The steering boasts linear, firm effort and reassuringly accurate on-center.

Even more impressive, this vehicle’s EcoDiesel motor comes with a swift response, steady power, smooth acceleration, and quiet and confident roar. The engine also produces a whopping 410 lb-ft of torque and 260 horsepower, with the V6, in particular, possessing eTorque, which greatly helps in towing.

5. Trendy Infotainment and Connectivity

It’s easy to agree that Ram pickups have had one of the best (if not the best!) connectivity features and infotainment systems in the class for quite some time. That continues in the 2020 pickups, where you can choose from an intuitive 8.4-inch screen or a large optional 12.0-inch touchscreen available in most trims.

These systems have many power points as well as a mobile hotspot, Android Auto, and Apple CarPlay options. Even better, the massive screen boasts hard buttons and physical knobs that ultimately elevate your driving experience.

6. Impressive Fuel Economy

With the 2WD configuration and a 33-gallon gas tank, the new Ram 1500 allows you to drive more than 1,000 miles without refilling. That would get you from Houston, Texas to Disney World! Insane fuel economy, right?
