Ram 1500 Classic

Price $38,240 – $57,535
Fuel consumption 9.6 – 16.2 L/100km
The Car Guide rating 69%(view ratings)
Since Ram doesn’t have an affordable midsize pickup in its portfolio at the moment, the Ram 1500 Classic is the next best thing. Cheaper than the latest-generation Ram, this truck can be ordered with either the 3.6-litre Pentastar V6 or the 5.7-litre HEMI V8. The fuel-saving eTorque mild hybrid system is not available, however. Incidentally, there are no changes to report for the 2022 model year.
