Can you tell me about the engine options?

When it comes to power, the Ram 1500 is loaded! The standard engine for the 2019 model year is the beloved Pentastar that powers other models in the Ram, Jeep, Dodge, and Chrysler lineup. This 3.6L V6 engine pumps out up to 269 lb-ft and 305 hp. This engine's capabilities are enhanced with the brand new eTorque mild-hybrid system which boosts fuel economy, enhances torque when needed, and hastens the engine's start/stop technology restart. If you are in need of more power you can opt for the available 5.7L V8 engine that puts out up to 410 lb-ft and 395 hp. This engine can be equipped with the mild-hybrid eTroque system or not depending on what you prefer. Ram matches both these engines with an 8-speed TorqueFlite transmission for a smooth and crisp drive time after time. For even more capabilities, there are both RWD and 4WD configurations available.
