Few trucks have made an impression as strong as the 2022 RAM 1500 when it comes to towing capabilities. It can tow up to an astonishing 12,750 pounds when equipped with a 5.7L HEMI V8 Engine with eTorque.
The reason why RAM models are so powerful in towing is that only steel frames of extremely high strength are used in manufacturing them. It is to be noted that with every engine type, the 2022 RAM 1500 has a different towing capacity. Using the V8 engine, it has the maximum strength. A 2022 RAM 1500 equipped with a V8 engine without eTorque can tow up to 11,610 pounds.
People often wonder what eTorque is and the role it plays in towing. eTorque is a 48-volt system that is used to further boost the launch torque by 130 lb-ft. This is particularly useful for those who are regularly towing extremely heavy loads. Although eTorque is a standard feature for the 2022 RAM 1500’s V8 engine and 3.6L Pentastar V6 engine, you can still opt for not choosing it. The 2022 RAM 1500 equipped with the Pentastar V6 engine and eTorque can tow a maximum of 7,730 pounds.
Then comes the 3.0L EcoDiesel V6 Engine for the 2022 RAM 1500. With this equipped, your RAM model can tow up to 12,650 pounds. While the number is indeed less than that of the 5.7L HEMI V8 engine, it does score more points when it comes to fuel economy.
All the engines of the 2022 RAM 1500 are extremely powerful. Regardless of the engine option you have, you can drive the RAM model comfortably without feeling any cumbersome load on the back.
