2022 Ram 2500 pricing and features for Australia

The upgraded 2022 Ram 2500 has officially arrived in Australia and in local showrooms, just a handful of months after the updated 1500 launched in May.

As the first major update for the truck in more than five years, skin-deep changes include a new bonnet, bumper and interior, while a bigger intercooler helps the 2500 now pump out 1152Nm of torque, a 68Nm increase over the previous model.

On top of a comprehensive upgrade to its in-car systems, the Ram 2500 has also shed 64kg thanks to lightweight materials being used in its new frame and body panels, not quite making it a featherweight – but still providing a marked improvement from the outgoing 2500.

Engine, drivetrain and capacity

Perhaps the smallest change for the 2022 Ram 2500 comes in the form of its engine, retaining the Cummins-built 6.7-litre, straight-six pushrod which has previously featured.

Power remains unchanged – 276kW @ 2800rpm – but torque is now up from 1084Nm to 1152Nm @ 1600rpm, courtesy of a larger intercooler and revised tune.

Mated to a six-speed torque-converter automatic gearbox, the 2500’s high torque figures and BorgWarner four-wheel drive system gives it a braked towing capacity of up to eight tonnes.
