Backed up by decades of engineering, the HEMI design still lives under the 2024 RAM 3500’s hood. This signature mechanical technology is applied to the massive 6.4-liter engine block. Configured into a V-8 alignment, the iconic powertrain generates 410 horsepower. This gas-burning powerhouse dishes out 429 pound-feet of torque. When equipped with this eight-cylinder powertrain, the RAM HD truck hauls a payload of up to 7,680 pounds. The 2024 GMC Sierra 3500 HD’s standard 6.6-L gas engine is rated at just 401 hp. You certainly can’t haul as much payload with this V-8 engine. Nevertheless, General Motors offers the 6.6-L Duramax engine for the Sierra 3500 HD model. Peak ratings of this diesel engine include 470 hp and 975 lb-ft of torque. Also operating on diesel fuel, the RAM 3500’s optional Cummins engine delivers a whopping 1,075 lb-ft. You should look for the high-output certification for such a unique engine block on this heavy-duty RAM truck. Designed by Allison, a 10-speed automatic transmission drives the Sierra 3500 HD. Engineered by Aisin, a six-speed gearbox is paired with the RAM 3500’s diesel engine. When equipped with a gas engine, this model from Stellantis runs on an eight-speed transmission. Some other mechanical features that give the RAM truck greater advantages over rivals include the Auto-Level Rear Air Suspension and a 4×4 drive system with the on-the-fly transfer case.

Entering a fifth generation on the market, the Uconnect technology is integrated into the 2024 RAM 3500’s cabin. You can get a 12-inch LCD monitor for this full-size pickup truck.
