The same applies to the 8-speed automatic 8HP75-LCV transmission available on the gasoline powertrain. When equipped with this heavy-duty 6.4L Hemi® V8 engine, the 410 hp and 429 lb-ft of torque, together with the 8-speed transmission, provide excellent and smooth driving performance while retaining robust towing and payload capacities.

How much can a RAM 2500 tow?

When properly equipped, the 2023 RAM 2500 can tow up to a maximum of 19,980 lbs.
