Key Features of the 2026 RAM 2500
High-Output 6.7L Cummins® Turbo Diesel I6
For drivers who tow frequently or pull across elevation changes, the available High-Output 6.7L Cummins® Turbo Diesel I6 is the heart of dependable capability. Paired with the TorqueFlite® HD eight-speed automatic transmission, it’s tuned to produce up to 430 horsepower and a Best-in-Class available 1,075 pound-feet of base diesel torque for decisive acceleration and sustained pulling power. The transmission’s intuitive software helps deliver seamless shifts under load, while the available Automatic Smart Exhaust Brake and heavy-duty four-wheel disc antilock brakes work together to help manage speed on long descents and keep your setup composed. Diesel drivers also benefit from minimized noise and vibration characteristics that reduce fatigue during long highway stints. With maximum available diesel towing up to 20,000 pounds, and factory available Fifth-Wheel/Gooseneck Prep that integrates mounting hardware into a reinforced crossmember, the Cummins® powertrain equips the truck for serious trailers as well as daily work.
Uconnect® 5 NAV with Largest-in-Class 14.5-Inch Touchscreen
The available Largest-in-Class 14.5-inch infotainment touchscreen makes viewing navigation, audio, and vehicle settings effortless. Uconnect® 5 NAV supports multiple user profiles, tow-specific navigation, and available Ram Connect Services for added convenience. Wireless Apple CarPlay® support for your iPhone® and wireless Android Auto™ compatibility streamlines phone integration without cord clutter. The available 12-inch Digital Cluster Display can place turn-by-turn directions, Trailer Tow Pages, Trailer Brake Status, and Trailer Tire Pressure Monitoring within your line of sight. Towing visibility is further enhanced with the available 360° Surround View Camera and 360° Trailer Surround View Camera, while the available Digital Rearview Mirror with side camera integration provides an unobstructed, real-time video feed behind your truck or behind your trailer when equipped with the wired Tow Mode Camera. Together, these systems keep vital information accessible and help reduce stress in complex environments.
Trailer Reverse Steering Control and Tow Tech
Backing a trailer is a skill—and the available Trailer Reverse Steering Control was built to flatten the learning curve. Use the trailer steering knob to guide your trailer where you want it to go; the system manages the truck’s steering to follow your input. Add available Trailer Tire Pressure Monitoring to keep tabs on up to four trailers, and integrate available Class-Exclusive Power Convex Trailer Tow Mirrors for extended visibility with forward and reverse spotter functionality. Pair these with the available 360° Trailer Surround View Camera for a bird’s-eye perspective that can show obstacles you might otherwise miss. LED Trailer Hitch Light in the tailgate handle area helps during low-light hookups, while the available factory Fifth-Wheel/Gooseneck Prep Package provides confidence that your heavy-duty connections are anchored to a structural crossmember designed for the task. The result is a trailering ecosystem that supports precision from the driveway to the jobsite.
Class-Exclusive Available Auto-Level Rear Air Suspension
Truck stability and consistent ride height matter, especially when you swap between heavy trailers and bed cargo. The Class-Exclusive available Auto-Level Rear Air Suspension is tuned to help maintain optimal ride height under load, improving headlight aim, braking stability, and trailer dynamics. Combined with Trailer Reverse Steering Control and the Tow Tech hardware, the suspension contributes to a planted, predictable feel whether you are traversing a gravel lot or merging onto the interstate. For winter and utility duty, Snow Plow Prep comes standard, including a 220-amp alternator and prep wiring; add the available Transfer Case Skid Plate on 4x4 models for extra protection when the work carries you off pavement. With heavy-duty braking, purposeful gearing, and available chassis hardware engineered for upfit versatility, the 2026 RAM 2500’s under-the-skin systems are tuned for reliability where it matters most—under load.
RamBox® Cargo Management System and Onboard Power
Productivity starts with smart storage and dependable power. The Class-Exclusive available RamBox® Cargo Management System incorporates two lockable, drainable bins with LED lighting, remote access via the key fob, and an available 115-volt outlet at the driver-side front box. In the bed, available LED lighting and an available Mopar® bed step help you work efficiently after dark, while accessible features like available power side running boards and a dampened tailgate with available power release simplify entry and loading. Turn your truck into a jobsite or campsite generator with the available Best-in-Class Available Onboard Power—choose the standard 400-watt inverter or go up to a 2.4-kilowatt system to run tools and gear in the field. The available 50-gallon fuel tank on Crew Cab 8-foot bed models further extends your operating window, letting you work or roam longer between stops.
