It uses a 5.7-litre HEMI V8 petrol engine with eTorque mild-hybrid assistance, officially rated at 291kW and 556Nm in Australia.

The Big Horn prioritises work-ready value and V8 character, while Hurricane grades use newer twin-turbo inline-six engines and may offer more luxury or performance equipment.

The Australian-market RAM 1500 Big Horn HEMI V8 uses an eight-speed automatic transmission matched to its engine and intended workload.

RAM Australia advertises up to 4.5 tonnes maximum braked towing for the Big Horn, subject to configuration, equipment and all legal mass limits.

It uses a spacious crew-cab layout with seating for five. Buyers should confirm the exact seating and interior configuration on the vehicle ordered.

It can be used daily and offers a comfortable cabin, but its full-size dimensions require more parking space and care on narrow urban roads.

RAM paint availability varies by model year, production allocation and option package. Confirm the final colour choice and any additional cost with an authorised RAM Trucks Australia dealer.

It suits buyers who want a practical RAM 1500 workhorse with HEMI V8 sound, towing strength and crew-cab space.
