Drivers in search of a practical pickup truck wrapped in a comfortable and modern package are sure to find their ideal fit in the 2024 Ram 1500! Here are just five of our favorite must-have features of this iconic vehicle.
Five Must-Have Features of the 2024 Ram 1500
1. Power and Performance
The 1500’s base model comes equipped with a standard 3.6L V6 24V VVT eTorque Engine that produces 305 horsepower and 269 lb.ft. torque, offering a responsive and powerful ride. Its engine includes Engine Stop/Start technology, which provides you with greater fuel efficiency by automatically stopping your engine when you’ve brought the vehicle to a complete stop and restarting it when the brake pedal is released.
2. Towing and Payload Capacities
The 1500’s base model sports a maximum towing capacity of 7,760 pounds and payload capacity of 2,320 pounds when properly equipped. This is impressive for a vehicle in its class, and most drivers will find these work perfectly for their day-to-day needs. Drivers who need additional towing power, however, can easily increase that capacity by opting for other trim levels and configurations.
3. Infotainment
The 1500’s standard infotainment system is powered by Uconnect 3 technology and centered around a beautiful 5-inch touch screen display. This intuitive system is perfect for most modern drivers. Those hoping for an even more advanced system, however, might opt for available Uconnect 5 technology, larger 8.4-inch touch screen display, and Android Auto and Apple CarPlay capabilities. Whichever system you choose, you’ll find that staying connected and entertained has never been easier or more convenient!
4. Convenience and Comfort
Speaking of convenience, the 1500 includes several standard features to help make your life easier and more comfortable. These features include USB ports throughout the cabin, an audio jack input for physically connecting your phone to your speaker system, and a standard 4-way manual adjustable front passenger seat. Also standard is the Ram Clean Air System, which keeps your cabin air fresh and free from 95% of particulates, reducing everything from stale air to allergen levels.
5. Safety Features
The 1500 includes several standard safety features we love. These include electronic roll-mitigation and stability-control, which help with stability and prevent rollovers, and hill-start assist, which helps to prevent rolling back on inclines by holding your brakes until you accelerate. We also love the peace of mind provided by available driver assistance features, such as Blind-Spot and Cross-Path Detection, Lane Keep Assist, and Full-Speed Forward-Collision Warning Plus.
