All About the 2025 Ram 1500
The Game Changing Full-Size Pickup Learns a New Sport
A leader may not be required to improve, but a good leader always looks for ways to expand and improve upon itself. Greatness is endless, and the 2025 Ram 1500 has not ceased in its quest to be the best. The same truck that debuted in 2019 needed no upgrades to remain at the top of its class, but that hasn’t stopped the people at Ram from deciding otherwise.
Understated and elegant
The Ram 1500 was already a handsomely classy pickup truck, and the new 2025 models continue that trend albeit with a restyled front fascia that is even more bold with a larger grille opening. That coupled with fewer auxiliary openings and thicker outlines and bumper panels, lends itself well to a truck that looks unmistakably right and purposeful without the vulgarity of blingy chrome trim that other brands are increasingly addicted to.
New ‘Hurricane’ engine options
Not without function, the large grille now feeds air to an all-new turbocharged engine that is offered in standard and high output configurations, both significantly more powerful than the legendary hemi engines they replace. You better be prepared to try and take over from a Hemi, and these new ‘Hurricane’ motors bring their A-game, offering either 420 horsepower and lb-ft of torque to begin with, or 540 horsepower in HO trim and featured in the luxurious Limited and Tungsten trims, as well as the RHO off-road weapon.
The best has only improved
These new engines not only bring more power than past naturally-aspirated Hemi engines, but they are inherently smooth and balanced with their turbine-like delivery that aids in daily operation and tasks like towing. Economy also rises so you can spend less of your hard-earned cash at the gas pump. Just like the rock band Scorpions, these new 2025 Ram 1500s are ready to rock you like a hurricane.
