Heavy-duty trucks are built to bear the harshness of the building site across its lifespan. That means they are designed with resilience and longevity in mind, often forsaking luxury and tech in the process. The 2021 Ram 2500 breaks the mold in this and many other regards. This truck merges comfort and infotainment with unrivaled strength and power. Read on to find out why the Ram is one of the best options in its segment.
1. Powerful Engine
An incredible 410 horsepower and 429 lb-ft of torque are delivered from the 6.8 liter HEMI V8, which comes as standard in the 2500. You would have to upgrade a competitor model to get a similarly powerful engine.
A diesel option is also available. The 6.7 liter I6 Cummins turbo-diesel doubles the torque that you get from the gas engine, making it perfect for pulling large cargo.
2. Large Payload
How much you can load onto the back is an important factor to consider when choosing your net pickup. All engine types that are available with the 2500 have an extremely impressive payload capacity of 4,010 pounds. The unequaled load-bearing ability of its frame allows it to beat the competition with its hauling prowess.
3. Unbeatable Towing Capabilities
Much like the top speed of a supercar, towing capacity is of major importance for any heavy-duty truck. Again, the Ram is top of the class when it comings to pulling power. With the diesel engine installed, the 2500 can tow a truly staggering 19,860 pounds, while the petrol engine can manage a very respectable 17,540 pounds.
4. Off-Road Ready
If you fancy getting off the beaten path and take the road less traveled, the Ram 2500 has you covered. The massive amounts of torque, raised underside, and 4WD potential allows the 2500 to take all terrains in its stride.
5. Top Tech
The star of the show here is the 8.0-inch touchscreen infotainment system which is well-placed within the cabin. The user interface is instinctive and very user-friendly. A giant 12.0-inch upgrade is available.
Both Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are installed meaning all smartphone users are catered for. There are five USB ports in the cabin for all your devices.
6. Luxurious and Comfortable Interior
Gone are the days when a hard-working vehicle would torture you with inhuman interior design. The materials used are worthy of any top-end luxury vehicle. With comfortable seats and ample storage space, you will have a smile on your face every time you get behind the wheel.
The acoustic glass and noise cancellation system means you are separated from the hubbub of the outside world, allowing you to cruise along in peace.
6. Precise handling
The 2500 has a wonderful steering system that allows you to control the massive amounts of power under the hood. The breaks are sharp and responsive and the eight-speed transmission all add to the superior ride quality.
