Performance and Specs
The 2026 Ram 3500 offers two proven engines designed to deliver strong power across a wide range of workloads. The standard 6.4 liter HEMI V8 generates 405 horsepower and 429 pound feet of torque, providing confident acceleration and steady power delivery when towing or transporting heavy cargo.
Drivers who require maximum pulling strength can choose the 6.7 liter Cummins Turbo Diesel. In its High Output configuration, the Cummins produces 430 horsepower and 1,075 pound feet of torque. This engine has long been a benchmark in the heavy duty class for torque, durability, and long term reliability. It is designed for consistent performance under demanding conditions such as hauling trailers through steep grades or towing equipment over long distances.
Both engines pair with a heavy duty eight speed automatic transmission engineered for thermal stability and smooth shifting. Multiple axle ratios are available depending on configuration, including options designed for improved towing performance. Rear wheel drive and four wheel drive configurations allow buyers to choose the drivetrain best suited for their needs.
Capability
The 2026 Ram 3500 is designed to handle significant workloads with ease. Properly equipped models can tow up to 22,500 pounds according to the official Ram towing guide. This makes the Ram 3500 a strong choice for drivers who need to haul large trailers, agricultural equipment, or construction materials.
Payload capability varies depending on configuration, drivetrain, and selected axle ratio, allowing buyers to tailor the truck to their specific needs. The 3500 uses a solid rear axle paired with Ram’s heavy duty engineering to deliver stability and control. On select configurations, available rear air suspension improves load leveling and maintains ride quality when carrying heavier cargo.
Trailer Tow Technology packages add features such as an integrated trailer brake controller, wiring harness connections, surround view camera availability, trailer tire pressure monitoring, and auxiliary camera support. These features help improve visibility, safety, and confidence when towing in tight spaces or at highway speeds.
