2025 Ram 1500: Everything You Need To Know

In 2025, Ram is going to offer three combustion engine options, including two Hurricane options. The Hurricane made its debut on the Jeep Grand Cherokee L and will now make its pickup truck debut. Let’s talk about what that looks like.

• The Pentastar V6 eTorque engine pairs a V6 with a 48-volt hybrid battery to develop 305 horsepower and 271 lb-ft of torque. Available on Tradesman, Big Horn/Lone Star trims
• The Hurricane 3.0-Liter Straight-Six Turbo (SST) offers 420 hp and 469 lb-ft torque using Premium 91 octane fuel. Available on Tradesman, Big Horn/Lone Star, Laramie, Rebel trims
• The Hurricane 3.0-Liter Straight-Six Turbo High Output (SST H/O) bumps power to 540 horsepower and torque to 521 lb-ft using Premium 91 octane fuel. Available on Longhorn, Limited, Tungsten trims

All engines are mated to a TorqueFlite eight-speed automatic transmission

Aside from the engine options, the 2025 slate of Ram light-duty trucks is jam-packed with a ton of new features, including:

• The all-new Tungsten top-level trim
• An updated Uconnect 5 system that includes a 14.5-inch touchscreen and a segment-first 10.25-inch passenger screen
• An optional dual wireless phone charger
• A Hands-Free Driving Assist feature that allows drivers to let the truck manage interstate highway driving
• An available key card option, so you can access your truck with what is essentially a credit card sized key
• A 23-speaker Klipsch Reference Premier audio system, the most powerful available on a truck
• Frankly delicious 24-way power adjustable seats

Ram’s Tradesman trim is designed to be a bare-bones work truck, so its standard features are just about the absolute minimum you can get.

Standard 2025 Ram 1500 Tradesman features:

• Pentastar V6
• Quad cab 6'4" box
• 140.5-inch wheelbase
• 4x2 drive
• 3.21 axle ratio
• Electronic part-time transfer case
• Six-speaker sound system
• Backup camera
• Active features like lane management, adaptive cruise control, adaptive emergency braking, and blind-spot monitoring
• 26-gallon fuel tank
• 8.4-inch screen

Even the workhorse Tradesman trim comes with plenty of options, including crew-cab configuration, 4x4 drive, the Hurricane SST, advanced safety features, a 33-gallon tank, and a few appearance and equipment packages dedicated to towing, trailering, or off-roading.

Including destination and handling fees, the 2025 Ram 1500 Tradesman starts at $42,270.

The Big Horn or Lone Star Ram trims serve as a step up from the Tradesman; you’re still investing in a truck that can do work, but you also open yourself up to more features, both standard and optional.

Standard 2025 Ram 1500 Big Horn / Lone Star features:

• Pentastar V6
• Quad cab 6'4" box
• 140.5-inch wheelbase
• 4x2 drive
• 3.21 axle ratio
• Electronic part-time transfer case
• Six-speaker sound system
• Backup camera
• Active features like lane management, adaptive cruise control, adaptive emergency braking, and blind-spot monitoring
• 26-gallon fuel tank

Bumping up to Big Horn / Lone Star gives buyers a chance to secure some add-ons like active-level four-corner air suspension, a power-operated sunroof, a more impressive sport appearance package, and a few different tech packages that can add things like heated front seats, remote start, a 12-inch Uconnect infotainment system, and plenty of USB charging ports. You can also opt for head-up display, a digital rearview mirror, and trailer/towing packages.

Including destination and handling fees, the 2025 Ram 1500 Big Horn / Lone Star starts at $46,930.

Ah, the Rebel. If you’re looking for the perfect off-road machine, the Ram Rebel is a great place to start. It’s got beefier tires, more capability, and plenty of options and packages to further refine the ride.

Standard 2025 Ram 1500 Rebel features:

• Hurricane SST engine
• Crew-cab, 5'7" inch box
• 4x4
• 3.92 axle ratio
• Electronic locking rear differential
• Electronic on-demand transfer case
• 10-speaker sound system
• Safety features like backup camera, active lane management, adaptive cruise control, blind spot monitoring, forward collision mitigation, and park assist
• 26-gallon fuel tank

You’ve got a ton of minor options for the Rebel, like the addition of a larger fuel tank or a sunroof, but the primary options here are two Rebel-specific equipment packages:

Rebel Level 1 Equipment Group adds power-adjustable pedals, power-folding mirrors, rear defrosters, power tailgate release, a security alarm, and a wireless charging pad.

Bump up to the Rebel Level 2 Equipment Group, and you get all those aforementioned goodies, plus a 14.5-inch Uconnect touchscreen, an interactive passenger display, dual wireless charging pad, interior outlets and USB ports, rain-sensing wipers, eight-way power passenger seat, memory functions, a 19-speaker sound system, and some painted handles.

Including destination and handling fees, the 2025 Ram 1500 Rebel starts at $66,190.

If you’re looking for a truck that includes plenty of comfort and convenience on top of its capability, then you’re looking for the Laramie. This is one of the few truck trims that I wasn’t able to check out during Ram’s press event, but we can still run through the big key features.

Standard 2025 Ram 1500 Laramie features:

• Hurricane SST engine
• Crew-cab, 5'7" box
• 4x2
• 3.21 axle ratio
• Electronic on-demand transfer case
• 10-speaker sound system
• The same suite of active safety features mentioned above
• 26-gallon fuel tank

The Laramie comes with its own inbuilt suite of features, but the real comfort is going to come from the optional packages you can select for this trim. You can get some great appearance packages, but functionality will come from one of three equipment packages.

First is the Laramie Level 1 Group, which adds rain-sensing wipers, power tailgate release, and a wireless charging pad.

Laramie Level 2 Group adds a 14.5-inch Uconnect radio, passenger interactive display, a 12-inch digital display cluster, dual wireless charging pads, a 19-speaker sound system, and heated rear seats.

The GT equipment group adds bucket seats, a performance steering wheel with paddle shifters, a performance floor shifter, performance screens in your infotainment system, metal pedals, cold-air intake, and all-weather floor mats.

Including destination and handling fees, the 2025 Ram 1500 Laramie starts at $62,025.

With the Limited Longhorn, we really start getting into the fancy trims. Here, you’re primarily opting for appearance with the Limited Longhorn’s saddle interior and different grille — but never fear, because everything on the Limited can be added to your Longhorn.

Standard 2025 Ram 1500 Limited Longhorn features:

• Saddle brown interior and unique grille
• Hurricane SST H/O engine
• Crew cab, 5'7" box
• 3.92 axle ratio
• Active-level four-corner air suspension
• Electric on-demand transfer case
• 10.25-inch passenger screen
• 19-speaker audio system
• The full suite of active safety features mentioned above
• 33-gallon fuel tank

Big options for the Limited Longhorn come in the form of equipment packages: the 4x4 off-road package, trailer and towing packages, and the advanced safety group.

Including destination and handling fees, the 2025 Ram 1500 Limited Longhorn starts at $77,645.

Once upon a time, the Limited used to be the swankiest Ram 1500 you could buy. It was the top of the line. The pinnacle. The apex.

For this coming model year, though, Ram has upped the ante and introduced the Tungsten — a trim that changes the name of the game for the luxury pickup truck. The Limited is still here, though, and it’s still a damn fine machine.

Standard 2025 Ram 1500 Limited features:

• Hurricane SST H/O engine
• Crew-cab, 5'7" box
• 4x4
• 3.92 axle ratio
• Active-level four-corner air suspension
• Electric on-demand transfer case
• 10.25-inch passenger screen
• 19-speaker sound system
• All the previously mentioned active safety and security features
• 33-gallon fuel tank

With the Limited, you can select from a handful of additional package options: the Night Edition appearance package, off-road and 4x4 packages, and towing packages. You can also select Limited Level 1 Equipment Group, which adds: 14.5-inch UConnect touchscreen, 360-degree surround camera, autonomous parallel and perpendicular park assist, highway assist plus, smartphone as key, heads-up display, digital rearview mirror with tow mode, and a premium sound system.

Including destination and handling fees, the 2025 Ram 1500 Limited starts at $77,150.

Here it is: Ram’s new top-of-the-line trim. The Ram 1500 Tungsten is basically what happens when you outfit a Limited truck with as much finery as you can manage.

Standard 2025 Ram 1500 Tungsten features:

• Hurricane SST H/O engine
• Molded front fascia
• Crew cab, 5'7" box
• 4x4
• 3.92 axle ratio
• Active-level four-corner air suspension
• Electronic on-demand transfer case
• Dual pane-power operated sunroof
• 10.25-inch passenger screen
• Ultra-premium 23-speaker sound system
• All previously mentioned active safety and security features plus: surround view camera, drowsy driver detection, evasive steer assist, intersection collision warning and traffic sign recognition
• 33-gallon fuel tank
• Front/rear bumpers painted body color

There really isn’t any higher up the Ram scale to go after you opt for a Tungsten. The price tag is a little steep, but it’s also as maxed out as you can get with a Ram — and I’m gonna be honest, if you can find something you’re missing in the Tungsten, I’d be legitimately impressed.

There are a handful of options, though, including towing and off-roading packages, and a handful the Limited Level 1 features that are not included as standard.

Including destination and handling fees, the 2025 Ram 1500 Tungsten starts at $89,150.

2025 is going to be a frankly massive year for Ram and its pickup trucks. The brand’s February media drive was confined to its core slate of combustion-engined light-duty trucks. You can also expect big news this year about commercial trucks and heavy-duty trucks, followed by the release of the all-electric Ram REV and the hybrid Ramcharger, then the Ram RHO.
