2025 Ram 1500 Ramcharger Performance

Blending the gas-powered Ram 1500 with the all-electric Ram 1500 REV, the 2025 Ramcharger brings the best of both worlds. It comes with the popular 3.6L Pentastar V6 engine under the hood, mated to a 130 kW electric generator powered by a liquid-cooled 92 kWh battery pack in an innovative hybrid powertrain that pumps out 663 horsepower and 615 lb-ft of torque.

Drive Modes and Range

Selectable drive modes come standard on all trim levels, optimizing power output and energy consumption for enhanced performance in various driving conditions and a speedy 0-60 time of 4.4 seconds. You also get 690 miles of total driving range, while the powertrain's plug-in hybrid design means savings at the pump, as you can charge the battery at 400V Level 3 charging stations and add up to 50 miles of extra range in only 10 minutes.

Massive Towing and Hauling Capacity

The Ramcharger's massive power also translates to massive towing and hauling capacity. This model boasts a best-in-class payload capacity of up to 2,625 lbs and can pull up to 14,000 lbs when properly equipped, so you can move heavy loads and tow various trailers across a worksite, around the town, or up a trail.

Head-Turning Styling

With an exterior design heavily inspired by its gas and electric siblings, the 2025 Ramcharger stands out in the traffic. This model boasts the same commanding road presence as the other Ram 1500 versions, impressing with a prominent front grille with distinctive badging, a wide stance for enhanced balance on rugged terrains, and stunning wheel and color options.

Luxury Interior

The new Ram 1500 Ramcharger boasts a luxurious cabin filled with premium materials and designed for comfort. Carbon fiber, metal, and leather elements combine in most trim levels, offering an upscale feel to the interior. Ergonomic seats offer excellent support, keeping you and your passengers comfortable even on the longest journeys.

Smart Tech Features 

A host of innovative tech features complete the new Ramcharger's design, enhancing your ride with entertainment, connectivity, and safety features. The latest Uconnect 5 infotainment system comes standard with a 12-inch touchscreen that can be configured to display the functions you use most. A 12.3-inch digital gauge pairs with the main display, contributing to the dashboard's modern appearance.

To keep your riders entertained, you can add an available 10.3-inch passenger display with an HDMI port for seamless smartphone mirroring, video streaming, gaming, and more.

Before Your Jeep® Finds the Next Trail, Give It the Service It Deserves

Summer has a funny way of convincing you to take the long route home. One minute you're running errands, and the next you're exploring a back road just to see where it goes. That's exactly what a Jeep® is built for—but before the adventures begin, it's worth making sure your vehicle is ready for everything the season has in store. A routine Jeep® service visit can help keep your Wrangler, Gladiator, Grand Cherokee, or any other Jeep® model prepared for hot weather, long highway drives, and weekends spent exploring beyond the pavement. more Summer Asks More from Every Jeep Higher temperatures affect nearly every major system on your vehicle. The cooling system works harder, tires experience more stress, and fluids have to perform under tougher conditions. Scheduling Jeep service before summer gets into full swing helps identify routine wear before it turns into an unexpected repair. It's a simple step that can make a big difference when your plans include road trips, camping weekends, or towing recreational gear. Start With the Cooling System Your Jeep's engine produces plenty of heat without any help from the weather. Add a hot summer day, and the cooling system suddenly becomes one of the busiest parts of the vehicle. During a service appointment, technicians can inspect coolant levels, examine hoses for wear, and verify the radiator and thermostat are operating correctly. They'll also check essential fluids such as brake fluid, power steering fluid, and windshield washer fluid to help ensure everything is ready for the season ahead. Routine visits to our Jeep® service center also allow technicians to catch small concerns before they become larger repairs. Your Tires Are Ready for Adventure—Are They Ready for Summer? Whether your Jeep spends most of its time on pavement or occasionally ventures onto trails, tires deserve careful attention before summer travel begins. Checking tire pressure, inspecting tread depth, and rotating the tires at the recommended interval all help improve handling and extend tire life. If you're planning to explore unpaved roads or trails this season, it's also a great opportunity to have your tires inspected for cuts, uneven wear, or other damage that could affect performance off-road. Heat Isn't Kind to Batteries Cold weather usually gets the blame when a battery finally quits, but summer heat often does the damage first. A quick battery test helps determine whether it's still holding a healthy charge, while technicians can also inspect electrical connections and charging-system components. It's a fast inspection that can help prevent the frustration of a no-start situation far from home. Stay Cool Wherever the Road Leads A properly functioning air conditioning system can make every summer drive more enjoyable. If your Jeep isn't cooling the cabin as quickly as it once did, or the airflow seems weaker than normal, now is the perfect time to have it inspected. Checking refrigerant levels and inspecting the system before the hottest days arrive helps ensure you're comfortable no matter where your next adventure takes you. Schedule Jeep® Service at Bolton Chrysler Dodge Jeep A little preparation now can make every summer drive that much more enjoyable.

Summer Is Tough on Your Dodge. A Little Maintenance Goes a Long Way.

Summer has a way of making a vehicle earn its keep. Between family vacations, highway miles, construction zones, and afternoons hot enough to make the pavement shimmer, your Dodge works harder than it does during much of the year. That's why summer is one of the best times to schedule routine Dodge service. It's not about fixing problems after they happen. It's about finding the little things before they become the kind of repairs that interrupt your plans. more Start With the Cooling System Your engine creates plenty of heat on its own. Add a Kansas summer, and the cooling system suddenly becomes one of the hardest-working parts of your vehicle. During a service appointment, technicians can inspect coolant levels, check hoses for signs of wear, and make sure the radiator and thermostat are doing their jobs. It's a straightforward inspection that can help prevent an overheated engine on a hot afternoon. Your Tires and Brakes Never Get a Day Off Every mile you drive depends on four tire contact patches that aren't much bigger than the palms of your hands. Summer heat, long drives, and changing road conditions all affect how those tires perform. Checking tire pressure, inspecting tread depth, and rotating the tires when recommended helps improve handling and extend tire life. Your brakes deserve the same attention. If you've noticed squealing, grinding, vibration, or a brake pedal that feels different than usual, it's a good idea to have the system inspected sooner rather than later. Heat Is Hard on Batteries, Too Most people blame winter when a battery finally gives up. The truth is, summer heat often does the damage long before cold weather arrives. A battery inspection takes only a few minutes and can reveal whether it's still holding a healthy charge. While technicians are there, they'll also inspect belts and electrical connections to help ensure everything is ready for the miles ahead. Fresh Fluids Help Everything Work Better Engine oil reduces friction and helps control operating temperatures, making regular oil changes especially important during warmer months. A complete service visit is also the right time to inspect brake fluid, transmission fluid, power steering fluid, and windshield washer fluid. Keeping these systems properly maintained helps your Dodge continue delivering the performance and reliability you expect every day. A Little Time in the Service Bay Can Save a Lot of Time Later Routine maintenance isn't exciting, and that's exactly the point. The goal is to spend a little time taking care of your Dodge now instead of spending much more time dealing with unexpected repairs later. If your summer plans include long road trips or simply getting across town every day, preventive maintenance helps keep your vehicle ready for both.
