2020 Ram 2500 Towing Capacity and Payload

It’s impossible to ignore the overall strength of the 2020 Ram 2500. All you need to do is take a quick look at the model, with its imposing size and athletic stance, to know this truck means business. So whether it’s towing or payload, you’re going to be impressed with the capability of the Ram 2500.

The maximum towing capacity, which comes courtesy of a 6.7L turbo diesel engine, peaks at 19,680 pounds. If payload is more your emphasis, you can choose a 6.4L HEMI® V8 motor and enjoy a maximum payload capacity of 4,010 pounds.

A Pair of Heavy-Duty Engines

Let’s take a deeper look at these two motors, the 6.7L and 6.4L options for the 2020 Ram 2500, which make it possible for you to emphasize the type of capability you care most about. No matter which you choose, however, you’re going to get reliable and strong performance.

The smaller 6.4L HEMI® V8 generates 410 horsepower, 429 lb-ft of torque, and reaches a maximum towing capacity of 17,540 pounds in addition to that payload figure of 4,010 pounds.

Stepping up to the 6.7L Cummings® turbo diesel helps you generate even more oomph. The engine is able to generate 370 horsepower, an impressive 850 lb-ft of torque, and can achieve 3,160 pounds of payload capacity to go with the maximum 19,680 pounds of towing!

Practical, Up-Scale Interior

Beyond the raw strength of the trucks developed by Ram, maybe the other defining feature of the brand is a useful and enjoyable interior. From high-grade materials to new-age technology, the cabin of the 2020 Ram 2500 is a serene environment to lounge in.

Active noise cancellation helps block out the hub-bub of the outside world. An available 12-inch touchscreen display is easy-to-use and will serve as your hub for music, directions to far-off work sites, and more.

Smartphone integration is also key in the modern world, so the Ram 2500 offers Apple CarPlay™ and Android Auto™. Using these features means you can access applications that exist on your phone directly on the large touchscreen display!
