2024 Ram 1500: Release Date, Price & Features
We’re still well within 2023, but Ram is already thinking forward. Come and see the new 2024 Ram 1500 and read all about its engine, design, and special features.
Notable Changes from the Previous Year
Ram trucks aren’t humble, and the 1500 is no different. It is a heavyweight vehicle with three powerful engine options available -- a V6, a HEMI V8, and a supercharged HEMI V8.
Infotainment and Technology Features
The Uconnect 5 system is now standard for the lineup, with a 12-inch touchscreen display available. You can control many features remotely through the Ram app, including remote vehicle start, vehicle finder, and send & go, which works with your navigation system.
Exterior Design
The 2024 Ram 1500 comes with an improved 60/40 split swing‑away tailgate. It opens nearly 90 degrees while trailering and is strong enough to stand 907 kg when fully open. A 10 sq. ft dual-pane sunroof is available, which you can open and close with just one button. The vehicle also has a special suspension system for rear wheels, which improves overall driveability while trailering. The design has also improved the vehicle’s aerodynamics with an elevated hood.
Interior Comfort and Cargo Space
The 20224 lineup is expected to come with a luxurious interior design. It’s the only model in its class to provide reclining rear seats, and space isn’t an issue, as there’s a lot of legroom and headspace for everyone. Outstanding features include a Harman Kardon Premium sound system.
Performance Features
Three engines will be available for this lineup: a 3.6-litre V6 Pentastar with eTorque, a 5.7-litre HEMI V8 with eTorque, and a 6.2-litre supercharged HEMI V8.
The Pentastar V6 brings 305 horsepower and can deliver 269 lb-ft of torque. The 5.7-litre HEMI V8 is a much more powerful option. It brings 395 horsepower and a torque capacity of 410 lb-ft. Topping the list is the supercharged HEMI V8, which tops out at 702 horsepower and has a torque capacity of 650 lb-ft.
Safety and Driver Assistance Features
The new Ram 1500 is impressively safe, with over 100 safety features available. There are six airbags included in all models, along with large brake rotors, a 360-degree surround view camera, and many driving assists.
