Power and Performance

Power comes standard with the 2026 RAM 1500. The available Hurricane™ twin-turbo inline-six delivers up to 540 horsepower and 521 lb-ft of torque, giving you the muscle needed to tow and haul with confidence. Power builds quickly and stays consistent under load, whether you’re accelerating onto the highway or pulling weight uphill.

An eight-speed TorqueFlite® automatic transmission keeps shifts smooth and controlled. Available four-wheel drive adds traction on loose gravel, mud or snow, helping maintain control when conditions turn unpredictable.

Towing and Cargo

This new RAM truck is built to move weight. The 2026 RAM 1500 can tow up to 11,610 lbs when properly equipped, giving you the strength to handle trailers, equipment, and materials without hesitation. The available RAMBox® Cargo Management System adds lockable, weather-resistant storage built into the bedsides, keeping tools secure and organized. A durable steel bed and available multifunction tailgate make loading easier, especially when you’re working against the clock.

Technology Features

The cabin is built for long hours and practical use. The available Uconnect® system features up to a 14.5-inch touchscreen, giving you a large, clear interface for navigation, media and vehicle settings. It responds quickly and keeps key controls within reach. Stay connected with:

• Apple CarPlay®
• Android Auto™
• Bluetooth® hands-free calling and audio streaming

An available 12-inch digital driver display provides real-time vehicle data, helping you monitor performance, towing information, and navigation without taking your eyes off the road.

Safety Features

The 2026 RAM 1500 offers available driver-assist features designed to support awareness in busy conditions. Forward collision warning with automatic emergency braking helps monitor traffic ahead and react when needed.
