Top Performance Features in the 2022 RAM 2500


Award-Winning Heavy-Duty Pickup Truck Loaded with Power

The 2022 RAM 2500 is an award-winning heavy-duty pickup truck with plenty of power for daily driving, off-roading, and work tasks. The larger cousin to the popular RAM 1500 comes in six trims with automatic transmissions and respectable towing capabilities.

Impressive Horsepower and Torque

The 2022 RAM 2500 performance features include a pair of powerful engine choices. The first is the standard 6.4-liter V8 with 410 horsepower and 429 lb-ft of torque. The second is the 6.7-liter inline-six Cummins diesel with 370 horsepower and 850 lb-ft of torque. The Power Wagon off-road performance truck only comes with the V8 and ll-wheel drive, while the other trims come standard with the V8 and offer the optional diesel engine and a choice of rear-wheel or all-wheel drive.

The V8 comes standard with an eight-speed automatic, while the Cummins diesel has a six-speed automatic transmission. The Corporate six-speed electronically controlled, multirange transmission with responsive performance and low noise and vibration to quiet the Cummins diesel engine.

Drivers who want off-road capabilities can choose the Power Wagon with all-terrain tires, hill descent control, and upgraded off-road suspension. Despite the Power Wagon having the upgraded suspension and electronically locking transfer case, the other RAM 2500 trim levels can still
manage off-road terrain thanks to larger tires, substantial clearance, and significant torque.
