RAM 2500 details
Price$172,950
ANCAP Safety RatingUnrated
Fuel TypeDiesel

The RAM 2500 is a heavy-duty, full-size pickup built for serious towing. Powered by a 6.7-litre Cummins turbo-diesel inline-six, it offers plenty of torque and durability for tough jobs and long hauls.

Its rugged body-on-frame chassis and heavy-duty suspension make it ideal for trades, farming, and anyone needing maximum capability in rough conditions. Inside, the RAM 2500 is roomy and well-equipped, especially in higher trims like Laramie and Limited. Its size and weight mean it’s less nimble than smaller utes, but it compensates with towing capacities well over 4500kg and strong payload figures.

Pros

  • Massive torque and towing capacity for heavy-duty tasks
  • Durable build with rugged suspension suited for rough terrain
  • Spacious, well-equipped cabin with modern features

Cons

  • Large size limits manoeuvrability on tight trails
  • Higher fuel consumption compared to lighter utes
  • Premium price and costly servicing due to import status

Warranty

The RAM 2500 in Australia comes with a five-year unlimited-kilometre warranty. Servicing intervals are typically set at 12 months or 15,000km, with maintenance costs generally higher than lighter utes due to the truck’s size and diesel engine complexity. While authorised dealers offer full support, running and repair expenses can be significant, reflecting the RAM 2500’s status as a specialised, imported heavy-duty pickup.

Pricing

The RAM 2500 carries a premium price tag in Australia, starting from $172,950 for the Laramie variant. Its heavy-duty capabilities, powerful Cummins diesel engine, and spacious interior justify the cost for buyers who need serious towing and payload performance.
