The Ram Heavy Duty is Ready to Steamroll Into 2024

October 19th, 2023 by

Since its inception in 2009, the Ram Truck brand has consistently led the pack. The unique blend of unmatched performance, robust durability, extreme comfort, and advanced technology distinguishes the Ram Heavy Duty, now in its fifteenth year of outperforming its rivals. As details have steadily emerged about the 2024 Heavy Duty models, our excitement for what the future holds for Ram has only heightened.

Firing On All Cylinders

The introduction of the new Heavy Duty Rebel in 2023 marked the arrival of a standard Power Wagon that also 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

The Heavy Duty’s ability to handle rapidly growing towing and payload capacities continues to strengthen year after year. Ram’s most recent update projects the anticipated capability metrics for the 2024 Heavy Duty models as such:

  • 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

The Ram Heavy Duty (particularly the off-road-centric Rebel) consistently delivers outstanding performance in off-road conditions, even with its increased towing and hauling capabilities. A 12-inch infotainment touchscreen, centrally located on the dashboard, serves as an excellent navigation tool for off-road adventures.

The Ram 2500 boasts two distinctive rear suspension options: a five-link coil system and an air suspension system. Meanwhile, the 3500 offers an exclusive air suspension system.

An Option for Every Type of Driver

From the opulent Laramie to the robust Big Horn, Ram Heavy Duty vehicles have adeptly served a diverse range of drivers. The 2024 Ram Heavy Duty will be offered in seven distinctive trims, amongst them the aforementioned Rebel. The remaining six trims are as follows:
