The RAM 1500 is built for a driver who needs both power and efficiency. The EcoDiesel powertrain option offers excellent fuel efficiency without sacrificing your truck’s capability.

Fuel-Efficient RAM Diesel Engine

The 3.0-liter EcoDiesel V6 Engine offered in the RAM 1500 truck offers a marked improvement in fuel efficiency over traditional gas engines without sacrificing power. The EcoDiesel offers up to 33 miles per gallon on the highway and 23 miles per gallon in the city, compared to 23 miles per gallon on the highway and 16 miles per gallon in the city for the 3.6-liter gasoline engine.

This increased fuel efficiency translates into a driving range of up to 950 miles on one tank of diesel fuel, making the RAM 1500 an excellent option for pulling a heavy load over a long distance. In fact, the EcoDiesel particularly shines in long-distance driving, with excellent mileage and handling, as well as an improved driver experience with reduced road noise and vibration.

Impressive Towing Capacity

The high-strength steel frame that supports a RAM 1500 truck brings durability and support that you’ll notice when you’re pulling a heavy trailer. The EcoDiesel engine offers up to 9,600 pounds of towing capacity, and your truck will handle the weight with ease when properly equipped with a factory-installed towing package.

The EcoDiesel engine produces 480 pound-feet of torque, which gives you plenty of power and support for your load.
