Since the Ram Truck brand was established in 2009, it has consistently led the pack. With its blend of superb performance, robust durability, ultimate comfort, and technological innovation, the Ram Heavy Duty enters its fifteenth year, continually outpacing its rivals. As information about the 2024 Ram Heavy Duty models starts to incrementally emerge, our excitement level for what’s next for Ram continues to expand.
Firing On All Cylinders
The introduction of the new Heavy Duty Rebel in 2023 marked the arrival of a standard Power Wagon that boasted remarkable capacity for towing and payload-hauling. The Rebel was able to maximize the potential of its Cummins Turbo Diesel engine, which returns as a choice for the 2024 Ram Heavy Duty. All engine options include:
- 6.4-liter HEMI V-8 delivers 410 horsepower at 5,600 rpm and 429 lb.-ft. of torque at 4,000 rpm – and features variable-valve timing (VVT) with Fuel Saver Technology cylinder deactivation
- 6.7-liter Cummins Standard-Output Turbo Diesel produces 370 horsepower and 850 lb.-ft. of torque (Ram 2500 and 3500)
- 6.7-liter Cummins High-Output Turbo Diesel produces 420 horsepower and 1,075 lb.-ft. of torque (Ram 3500)
The Heavy Lifter
Every passing year witnesses a continual growth in the Heavy Duty’s ability to handle progressively larger towing and payload capacities. According to the most recent update from Ram, the projected capability statistics for the 2024 Heavy Duty model are as follows:
- Towing – Up to a 37,090 pounds with Ram 3500
- Towing – Up to 20,000 pounds with Ram 2500
- Payload – Up to 7,680 pounds with Ram 3500
- Power – 410 horsepower and 429 lb.-ft. of torque with 6.4-liter HEMI® V-8 engine
Despite its impressive towing and hauling abilities, it’s remarkable how the Ram Heavy Duty – particularly the off-road-centric Rebel – consistently delivers outstanding off-road performance. A 12-inch infotainment touchscreen in the center of the dashboard serves as the perfect off-road assistant and navigation guide.
The Ram 2500 also offers two distinct rear suspensions, a five-link coil system and air suspension system, while the 3500 offers an exclusive supplemental air suspension system.
Variety, the Spice of Life
From the luxurious Laramie to the powerful Big Horn, the Ram Heavy Duty line has successfully responded to the diverse needs of its drivers. The 2024 Ram Heavy Duty will come available in seven unique trims, including the aforementioned Rebel. Those seven trims are:
- Big Horn/Lone Star
- Laramie
