How RAM Trucks Handle Different Terrains

Are RAM trucks off-road capable? Absolutely. Along with everything else RAM pickups are acclaimed for – prodigious towing and hauling power, next-gen technology, and innovative beds – they’re also among the most all-terrain-ready trucks in the world. Helfman Chrysler Dodge Jeep® RAM Fiat breaks down the innovations that allows RAM trucks to capably handle different terrains.

RAM Truck Terrain

Powerful Engines

For any serious off-road excursion, a capable engine is a must. The RAM brand obliges with two newly available 3.0-liter six-cylinder “Hurricane” engines. These power plants render the 2025 RAM 1500 the strongest RAM 1500 ever.

The standard Hurricane engine achieves 420 horsepower and 469 lb-ft of torque. The High-Output Hurricane engine increases output to 540 horsepower and 521 lb-ft of torque, with 540 horsepower being a class-leading number.

Rough Road Cruise Control

This feature is an invaluable asset when confronted with bumpy roads and rough trails. With Rough Road Cruise Control, your new RAM truck will be able to maintain a smooth, consistent speed in tough terrain – without you having to even touch the pedals.

Drive Modes

Depending on the specific model and trim you purchase at our Houston, TX RAM dealership, you’ll have up to nine different drive modes for enhancing your all-terrain experience. Ranging from Mud/Sand, Baja, and Tow to Snow, Sport, and Rock, each mode is designed to provide maximum vehicle control in whatever road or weather condition comes your way.

Factory-Installed Bilstein® Shocks

The Bilstein® Black Hawk® e₂ Shock System is one of the most advanced systems of its kind, and select RAM trucks have it. Each shock boasts its own independent remote reservoir fueled by a pressurized nitrogen gas charge. This allows for unparalleled adaptation to the speed, torque, and steering angle required to maintain optimum body control in whatever terrain you’re exploring.

RamBox® Cargo Management System

With the RamBox cargo management system, you can add an extra dimension to your all-terrain explorations. This class-exclusive feature isn’t just a durable, secure, and versatile solution for storing your gear. It’s also lighted and comes with a 115-volt AC outlet.
