The 2019 Ram 1500 Offers the Powerful Performance You Need in Charlevoix

It's no shock that the all-new Ram 1500 is back and better than ever for 2019, and after numerous generations of ingenuity, performance, and a commitment to creating the best truck, you'll love everything about the 2019 Ram 1500. True to the Ram heritage, the new Ram 1500 offers the same classic design and style elements that you love, while upgrading your technology to be on the cutting edge of the full-size pickup truck segment.

New Engineering and Materials

Thanks to new features like an aluminum hood and tailgate, you'll enjoy a lower overall body weight reduction and a high-strength steel frame, you'll love your stronger than ever Ram 1500. Just like previous generations, the 2019 Ram 1500 comes standard with a 3.6-liter Pentastar V6 engine, but this engine has been updated and upgraded for added power and performance. The inclusion of the eTorque system makes this engine more of a mild-hybrid, which bumps your fuel efficiency, without having to sacrifice on the performance you want. Additionally, there is an available 5.7-liter HEMI V8 engine option that puts out a powerful performance. When well equipped, you can tow a maximum of 12,750 pounds, and haul up to 2,300 pounds. This is a strong increase over last year's towing and hauling numbers for the 2018 Ram 1500 in Kalkaska.

The Ram 1500 also features numerous aerodynamic features for improved fuel efficiency and performance. The class-exclusive Active Front Air Dam, along with the active grille shutter, reduce drag at speeds over 35 mph. The Active Front Air Dam lowers down to divert air around the sides of the truck, rather than diverting it underneath where there is more resistance. This means a 9% reduction in drag, making this Ram 1500 one of the most aerodynamic trucks in the class.

Interior Features and Technology

Currently available with seating for six, the Ram 1500 offers two cab sizes known as Quad and Crew Cab. The interior is lined with high-quality materials, soft-touch points, and all the technology you want.

Available features offered are things like wireless device charging, a Harman Kardon audio system, sunroof, and satellite radio. You can also upgrade your Uconnect system with an 8.4 or 12-inch touchscreen display including Apple CarPlay, Android Auto and integrated navigation. No matter which Uconnect system you choose, you'll love how easy it is to use, with responsive buttons, easy to navigate menus, and of course a beautiful display.
