The 2024 Ram 1500 is a full-size truck that’s as comfortable as it is capable. ## What’s New for the 2024 Ram 1500 For 2024, the Ram 1500 TRX super-truck enters its final year (for now?), and Ram is celebrating with a TRX Final Edition. It features unique colors and badging. Elsewhere, the Ram 1500 Tradesman Warlock returns, adding off-road kit to the affordable entry-level trim. ## Design The Ram 1500 lineup for 2023 includes the Tradesman, Big Horn, Rebel, Limited Longhorn, Limited, and TRX. The TRX boasts wider fenders, a taller suspension, and all-terrain tires. ## Powertrain The base engine in the 2023 Ram 1500 is a 3.6-liter V6 engine. It makes 305 horsepower and 273 pound-feet of torque. A 5.7-liter Hemi V8 is available, putting out 395 horsepower and 410 pound-feet of torque. And for the truly bold, the Ram 1500 TRX comes fitted with a supercharged 6.2-liter V8 engine with 702 horsepower and 650 pound-feet of torque. Power is routed through an eight-speed automatic transmission to the rear wheels or to available four-wheel drive (4WD) with low range. When properly equipped (5.7-liter V8, 4x2, quad-cab, Tradesman, long bed), the Ram 1500 can tow up to 12,750 pounds. The most efficient version of the ’24 Ram 1500 is the base V6 engine with rear-wheel drive (RWD). It returns fuel economy of 20 mpg city, 25 highway, and 22 combined. With 4WD, fuel economy with this engine falls to 19 mpg city, 24 highway, and 21 combined. The 5.7-liter V8 with 4WD returns fuel economy of 18 mpg city, 22 highway, 19 combined. The least-efficient version is the Ram TRX, which returns just 10 mpg city, 14 highway, and 12 combined. The V6 can run on regular fuel, the 5.7-liter V8 requires mid-grade, and the supercharged V8 requires premium fuel. ## Interior The Ram 1500 is offered in regular cab, quad cab (extended cab) and full four-door crew cab.

An 8.4-inch touchscreen infotainment system with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto is optional on the Big Horn and Rebel trims, and it comes standard on all but the TRX, which receives a massive 12-inch touchscreen. This largest screen is available on all but the Tradesman trim. ## Safety The 2023 Ram 1500 comes standard with a backup camera, but most of the driver-assistance features are either optional or come equipped on upper-level trims.
