Power and Performance That Stands Out
Whether you're towing massive loads or hauling gear, the 2025 Ram 3500 delivers impressive strength with two powerful engine options:
-
6.4L HEMI® V8 Engine: Offers excellent performance and reliability for day-to-day tasks. With 410 horsepower and 429 lb-ft of torque, this engine is a great option for those who need substantial towing capacity but don’t require the maximum available towing power.
-
High-Output 6.7L Cummins® Turbo Diesel I6 Engine: Produces a staggering 1,075 lb-ft of torque and 430 horsepower, paired with the advanced TorqueFlite® HD eight-speed automatic transmission. With a maximum towing capacity of 36,610 pounds and a payload capacity of 6,050 pounds, you’ll have no problem taking on the biggest challenges.
Advanced Towing Features:
Whether you choose the single rear wheel (SRW) or dually configuration, the 2025 Ram 3500 comes equipped with advanced towing features to make your job easier.
-
Trailer Reverse Steering Control: Take the hassle out of backing up with a trailer. This system allows you to control the direction of your trailer while the truck’s steering handles the rest, making it easier whether you're towing with a SRW or dually.
-
Auto-Level Rear Air Suspension: This system automatically adjusts the suspension, ensuring a smooth ride whether you're hauling a lighter load with the SRW or carrying heavy-duty cargo with the dually.
-
Integrated Fifth-Wheel/Gooseneck Prep Package: Ready to tow right off the lot, this factory-installed hardware makes it easy to hitch up a fifth-wheel or gooseneck trailer, available with both SRW and dually configurations.
How Much Can You Tow? A Quick Guide
To further help you make the best decision, here’s a simple breakdown of the towing capacities based on engine choice and configuration:
| Engine Option | Towing Capacity | Payload Capacity |
| 6.4L HEMI® V8 | Up to 16,000 lbs | 4,050 lbs |
| High-Output 6.7L Cummins® Turbo Diesel | Up to 36,610 lbs | 6,050 lbs |
This table allows you to compare engine choices side by side, so you can determine the right balance between towing and payload needs.
