2025 vs. 2024 Ram 3500: Redesign Specs Showcase
Pop the hoods across the 3500 trim lineup, and you'll recognize some familiar engines. The 6.4-liter HEMI V-8 is the classic standard powertrain for the most recent of the Ram 3500 generations, and the 6.7-liter Cummins® Turbo-Diesel I-6 keeps its potency from last year, posting an impressive torque stat of 1,075 pound-feet and upgraded 430 horsepower, which leads to the maximum 2025 Ram 3500 towing capacity of 36,610 pounds.1 This is a small decrease from 2024 but still able to handle hefty gooseneck setups, large livestock trailers, construction equipment, and further possibilities like a racetrack-prepped 2023 Dodge Challenger on a flatbed trailer.

You'll notice that this most recent year of Ram heavy-duty trucks is the fastest, most consistent, and most enjoyable to drive once you explore our Ram 3500 vehicles and try one yourself!
2025 vs. 2024 Ram 3500: Changes to Exterior Style
The 2024 Ram 3500 is an incredibly handsome truck featuring a design language that can be simply translated to "muscular." The 2025 Ram 3500 redesign emphasizes the qualities that make your Ram heavy-duty special with reimagined grille emblems – unique to each trim level – and standard LED exterior lights. Alternatively, on higher trim levels, you can pierce the darkness with bi-function LED projector headlamps and really leave an impression.
2025 vs. 2024 Ram 3500 Size Comparison
The Ram 3500 continues to be the large, immensely capable machine professionals love. The standard length of the Tradesman Regular Cab 4x2 8-foot box is still 232 inches, the same as it was in 2024. The length of the Crew Cab 6-foot box is also the same for both years, at 237.4 inches. Both model years in our inventory of CDJR vehicles offer roomy cabins with 40.2 inches of rear legroom for 2024 and 2025.
What New Features Come With the 2025 Ram Trucks?
The exteriors might be similar, but the interior of the 2025 Ram 3500 is a whole new world compared to last year. Let's start with what's standard. The 5-inch touchscreen of the 2024 has been discontinued, replaced with an 8.4-inch infotainment console.
The safety features have been upgraded, too. Adaptive Cruise Control is now the default rather than an upgrade, making long towing trips on the highway less fatiguing. You'll also notice that the Full-Speed Front Collision Warning Plus is standard, letting your 2025 Ram 3500 help prevent a sudden obstacle from becoming a disaster.
As you climb toward the prestigious Limited and Limited Longhorn trims, the convenience systems only improve. You'll see that the maximum screen space has grown from 12 inches to 14.5 inches, while your front-row crew member can access navigation, trailer, and entertainment menus through the brand-new available 10.25-inch passenger display.
Safety has also been enhanced across the board. Starting with the Tradesman, an available Drowsy Driver Attention system can help you stay safe during long, fatiguing workdays. An available Active Lane Management System monitors your vehicle and trailer to keep you in line. Higher trims also get standard Front/Rear ParkSense Parking Assist and available Traffic Sign Recognition.

Frequently Asked Questions
What are the anticipated fuel efficiency improvements in the 2025 Ram 3500?
The fuel improvements coming to the Ram 3500 are almost entirely from the new engine, column-shifted TorqueFlite eight-speed transmission, and 3.42 rear axle ratio. The 6.4-liter HEMI V-8 and 6.7-liter Cummins® High-Output Turbo-Diesel powertrains are familiar names from 2024, but last year's six-speed transmissions have been phased out for eight-speed alternatives.
Does the 2025 Ram 3500 offer any new trim levels or special editions?
No, the 2025 Ram 3500 keeps what works by offering the same five trims as last year, maintaining what drivers loved. They are:
- Tradesman
- Laramie
- Big Horn
- Limited
- Limited Longhorn
However, the trims offer additional features for 2025, like the passenger touchscreen on the Limited and Limited Longhorn. Once you test-drive any of the trims, you'll see that these familiar-sounding levels are almost entirely upgraded.
When will the 2025 Ram 3500 be available at dealerships, and can I pre-order it?
The 2025 Ram 3500 has already rolled into our dealership's inventory; you can begin ordering it now! We started receiving our Ram 2500 and 3500 HD models of most trim levels at the end of March and early April.
