The new Ram has an improved frame design that incorporates high-strength steel supports; an all-new, first-in-segment, multi link coil spring rear suspension that improves ride and handling characteristics without sacrificing payload (up to an estimated 1,850 pounds); and towing capability (up to an estimated 9,100 pounds).

The line features an available first-in-segment RamBox cargo management system that provides weatherproof, lockable, illuminated and drainable storage compartments integrated into both fender sides for effortless access and convenience. The RamBox system also includes a bed divider/two-foot bed extender for oversize loads and a rail system with sliding, adjustable cleats for infinitely adjustable tie-down capability. Another new segment-first innovation is a pair of "store in the floor" bins with removable liners that offer even more versatile storage.

The all-new interior stands out with a renewed emphasis on craftsmanship, expressed in premium interior appointments--including six-ring instrumentation, redesigned controls, chrome accents, premium seating with improved bolsters and two-tone upholstery. In addition, the interior is significantly upgraded with "soft-touch" materials and premium fit and finish.
