CANADA’S BEST-SELLING AND MOST DURABLE DIESEL PICKUP.

Few

diesel powerplants have achieved the respect and recognition earned by the

Cummins name; and none other can claim best-in-class

torque,

towing and recommended oil change intervals (up to 24,000 km).

With the AISIN

heavy-duty 6-speed automatic, a properly

equipped Ram 3500 pickup can deliver a jaw-dropping 13,608 kg (30,000 lb) of towing

capacity and a Gross Combined Weight Rating (GCWR) that reaches a stunning 17,191 kg

(37,900 lb).

The Cummins is available with three high-performing transmissions. The available

high-strength AISIN 6-speed automatic features beyond-tough components and a massive

322-mm torque converter. This proven and sophisticated 6-speed multi-range automatic

transmission delivers driver-adaptive shifting and optimized gear ratios for responsive

performance, while the standard, class-exclusive

6-speed manual gives you the fuel economy

of a manual along with invaluable two-sided Power Take-Off (PTO) access.

CLASS-EXCLUSIVE

“SMART” DIESEL EXHAUST BRAKE. Helps control the descent of your pickup on

a slope. Working much like cruise control, the engine brake uses the diesel’s turbo to maintain smooth,

less aggressive braking while helping to provide vehicle stability and reduced wear on the disc brakes.

CLASS-EXCLUSIVE

RAM ACTIVE-AIR

INTAKE. Here, a computer-controlled valve system in the

engine’s air box automatically determines when air is pulled from the grille or the fender.

Controlling the air intake ensures optimal performance in all driving scenarios, irrespective of

temperature, grade or payload.

BEST-IN-CLASS ELECTRICAL OUTPUT.

Opt for the dual 220-amp alternators, and you’ve got a

best-in-class 440 amps of power

at your service. A convenient “auto idle-up” feature automatically

adjusts the output when greater electrical power is needed.

CLEAN, CONVENIENT—AND BEST-IN-CLASS.

The Diesel Exhaust Fluid/Selective Catalytic

Reduction system enhances fuel economy and contributes to its time- and money-saving best-in-class

recommended oil change intervals

of up to 24,000 km.

OUR WARRANTIES WORK

JUST AS HARD AS THE

TRUCKS THEY PROTECT.

As the largest displacement V8 gas engine in the class,

the

available 6.4-litre HEMI V8 with MDS technology delivers a

stunning combination of best-in-class gasoline engine horsepower

and torque,

delivering tremendous capability. It’s mated to the sophisticated, multi-range and

electronically operated 66RFE 6-speed automatic transmission, featuring full electronic control

for all automatic up- and downshifting. It further optimizes the gear ratios for responsive

performance and state-of-the-art efficiency. Attributes of this powerplant include:

FUELSAVER MDS TECHNOLOGY, which seamlessly transforms this 6.4-litre V8 into a fuel-saving

4-cylinder in many highway cruising situations.

INTERACTIVE DECELERATION FUEL SHUT-OFF (iDFSO), a transparent system that ceases fuel flow

to the engine when decelerating, a direct contributor to its fuel-efficient performance.

COOLED EXHAUST GAS RECIRCULATION (EGR) SYSTEM, which ranks among the first of its kind

for a gas engine. Relatively common to diesel engines, the EGR system helps enhance fuel efficiency

by cooling and then recycling exhaust gas. It’s especially beneficial in heavy-load hauling and

uphill towing situations, keeping internal components balanced and functioning at full capacity.

LARGE DISPLACEMENT, A HIGH COMPRESSION RATIO AND AWESOME POWER. Combine that

392 cubic inches of displacement with sophisticated Variable Valve Timing (VVT), and add a

high compression ratio of 10:1. The result: best-in-class gasoline engine horsepower and torque.

tHe forMidable 6.4l HeMi

The ingenious thinking that led to the development of the

hemispherical head is one of the major steps in automotive

engine design—exactly the credentials that make today’s

5.7-litre HEMI V8 the standard engine for Ram 2500/3500 Heavy Duty models. This

powerplant is a highly effective and proven engine design that delivers superb torque and

horsepower. Engineering advantages like Variable Valve Timing (VVT) and interactive

Deceleration Fuel Shut-Off (iDFSO) contribute to outstanding power and fuel economy.

VVT opens and closes valves with exacting precision, translating into peak performance and

increased torque for confident towing and hauling.

iDFSO seamlessly ceases fuel flow when the vehicle decelerates or coasts along. Real-world fuel

economy is measurably improved, with no noticeable change in engine performance.

BULLETPROOF CONSTRUCTION with a deep-skirt cast-iron block, cross-bolted main bearing

caps; three-way catalytic converters; aluminum alloy heads and dual spark plug technology. The

legendary hemispherical combustion chambers create outstanding airflow during the combustion

process, leading to high power and impressive torque.

HIGH COMPRESSION RATIO with an aggressive 10.5:1 combustion ratio achieves the highest

degree of performance.
