Key Features of the 2026 RAM 2500
High-Output 6.7L Cummins® Turbo Diesel I6 with TorqueFlite® HD Eight-Speed Automatic
For heavy-duty confidence, the available High-Output 6.7L Cummins® Turbo Diesel I6 is the heart of the 2026 Ram 2500. It produces up to 430 horsepower and a best-in-class available 1,075 lb-ft of base diesel torque, channeling that twist through the TorqueFlite® HD eight-speed automatic transmission. The powertrain is tuned for enhanced durability, low vibration, and software-optimized shift logic that keeps you in the torque band when grades rise or when a trailer is pushing from behind. Diesel buyers gain formidable stats—up to 20,000 pounds of maximum available diesel towing capacity—supported by heavy-duty four-wheel disc antilock brakes and an available Automatic Smart Exhaust Brake that adds extra control on descents. If you run gasoline, the 6.4L HEMI® V8 complements the lineup with impressive payload numbers, including up to 3,930 pounds of maximum gas payload, so contractors and weekend haulers alike can tailor capability to their needs.
Largest-in-Class 14.5-Inch Touchscreen with Uconnect® 5 NAV
The available Largest-in-Class 14.5-inch infotainment touchscreen is the command center for modern heavy-duty work. With Uconnect® 5 NAV, you can create up to five driver profiles, preset tow-specific navigation routes, and quickly surface the right camera angle, page, or setting on a vibrant, high-resolution display. Connectivity comes standard via available wireless Apple CarPlay® support for your iPhone® and available wireless Android Auto™ compatibility, while Ram Connect services help integrate safety, security, and comfort controls. The available 12-inch Digital Cluster Display is the perfect counterpart, surfacing Trailer Tow Pages, Trailer Brake Status, Trailer Light Check, gauge summaries, and Off-Road Pages in crisp 3D graphics within your line of sight. Together, these digital interfaces keep your hands on the wheel and your focus forward, while making complex tasks—navigation, towing setup, and vehicle diagnostics—simple to manage.
Digital Rearview Mirror with Side Camera Integration and Tow Mode Camera
When your trailer blocks the traditional mirror view, the available Digital Rearview Mirror is a game-changer. With an LCD monitor delivering a real-time video stream from a rear-facing camera, you can see behind your truck regardless of cargo height. Pair it with available exterior mirror cameras for left and right views of the trailer, and activate the available wired Tow Mode Camera to see directly behind the trailer when reversing. For broader visibility, the available 360° Surround View Camera and available 360° Trailer Surround View Camera provide an overhead perspective that makes it easier to position your truck, align with a coupler, or confirm clearance around obstacles. The result is a more relaxed, controlled experience in tight lots, on narrow driveways, or at busy worksites.
Class-Exclusive Available RamBox® Cargo Management System
Organization matters when deadlines are tight. The Class-Exclusive available RamBox® Cargo Management System equips two lockable, drainable storage bins with LED lighting and remote access via the key fob, plus a front driver-side 115-volt power outlet. Store tie-downs, straps, gloves, and tools where you can reach them fast—and rinse the bins after messy jobs. In the bed, available LED lighting keeps the work going after dark, while accessible exterior elements like available power side running boards, an available Mopar® bed step, and a dampened tailgate with available power release help streamline repeated climbs in and out. Inside, the 2026 Ram 2500 adds useful storage touches such as in-floor Ram Bins, a fold-flat load floor, and a center console rear cubby bin—plus an available 900-watt Harman Kardon® Premium Audio system with 17 speakers and an Interior Active Noise Cancellation System for a quieter, more focused cabin.
Trailer Reverse Steering Control and 360° Trailer Surround View Camera
Backing a trailer can be the most stressful part of any tow. The available Trailer Reverse Steering Control system simplifies this task by allowing you to guide the trailer with a dedicated knob while the truck automatically controls the steering wheel. This intuitive interface reduces overcorrection and helps drivers of all skill levels maneuver more precisely. Layer in the available 360° Trailer Surround View Camera for a bird’s-eye perspective of your rig and surroundings, and use available Trailer Tire Pressure Monitoring to keep an eye on up to four trailers right on the Digital Cluster Display. Add the available Fifth-Wheel/Gooseneck Prep Package for a factory-integrated hitch platform and the Snow Plow Prep Package—standard—to extend utility through winter. For long stretches between fill-ups, select configurations offer the Largest-in-Class available 50-gallon fuel tank on Crew Cab models with the 8-foot bed. This is confident, practical towing—engineered end to end.
