A Spacious, Upscale Cabin
Few pickups can create an interior that feels atmospheric and high-end, but the 1500 manages to do just that. Even on lower trims, you’ll be pleasantly surprised by a wealth of high-end materials and luxurious touches. At the higher end of the RAM trims, enjoy features like dual-zone automatic climate control, a dual-pane sunroof, and an auto-dimming rearview mirror.

Excellent Handling
You’d hardly believe you’re driving a truck when you take the wheel of the 1500. The well-tuned suspension soaks up bumps and dips in the road, making the pavement feel smooth and manageable. Responsive, engaged steering means taking corners is a dream. Two 1500 models are particularly adept at off-roading: the Rebel and the TRX. You’ll reap the rewards of features like skid plates, a locking rear differential, a unique chassis and axle ratio, and four-wheel drive.
Incredible & Safe Technology
RAM’s infotainment system is intuitive and easy to use. It comes in three variations: a standard 5-inch touchscreen, an available 8.4-inch touchscreen, or an available 12-inch touchscreen. Bluetooth, USB ports, and a six-speaker stereo come at the base trim level, while upgrading to higher trims will get you Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, satellite radio, navigation, HD Radio, a 7-inch digital instrument cluster display, and either a 10 or 19-speaker stereo.
There are numerous driver-assistance features available to keep you focused on the road while you drive.
