BEST-IN-CLASS

25 MPG HIGHWAY

MAKES THIS ENGINE A GIANT.

BUILT FOR LONG-LIFE RELIABILITY: From Day One, Pentastar V6

designers lasered in on achieving outstanding fuel efficiency. Assets here

include a “Silent Chain” timing drive, dual overhead cams, high-flow

“tumble” intake ports and a no-nonsense 10.2:1 compression ratio.

BETTER BY SEVERAL DEGREES: Both the Pentastar V6 engine and

the TorqueFlite 8-speed transmission employ Thermal Management

Systems. These systems keep fluids at ideal operating temperatures

(surprisingly, slightly higher) for top-echelon numbers for horsepower,

torque and fuel efficiency.

PULSE-WIDTH MODULATION: This maximizes the efficiency of

electrical output. Rather than maintain a constant (and more inefficient)

rate, the Pentastar V6 modulates the pulse-width of the energy. Result:

better and more efficient control of the fuel pump, cooling fan and HVAC

blower controls.

Ram pickups made history by combining the capable efficiency

of the Pentastar V6 with the first-ever truck application of an

8-speed automatic transmission, the class-exclusive

TorqueFlite®

8-speed. Time has shown this partnership to be one of the best,

a fact amply demonstrated by critical acclaim, back-to-back

national awards, available 4x4 capability and indisputably

impressive figures for towing and hauling. We then topped it

off with a best-in-class

[3]

25 mpg highway* rating.

This exceptional powertrain utilizes some of the most powerful

engineering practices and innovative technologies ever developed.

When compared to conventional engines and transmissions,

refinements to the Pentastar V6/TorqueFlite 8-speed powertrain

lineup translate into what counts: awesome fuel efficiency and

phenomenal performance.
