HEMI Performance and eTorque Efficiency

At the heart of this 2023 RAM 1500 Big Horn/Lone Star lies the legendary HEMI 5.7L V8 Multi Displacement VVT eTorque engine. This powertrain is a masterclass in modern engineering, combining the raw strength of a traditional V8 with the innovative eTorque mild-hybrid system. This setup utilizes a 48V Belt Starter Generator to optimize performance and smoothness, particularly during stop-and-go driving. Paired with a precision-engineered 8-Speed Automatic transmission, the power delivery is fluid and responsive, making it ideal for the varying elevations and long stretches of road found throughout the High Desert.

With an EPA-estimated 23 HWY MPG, you can spend more time enjoying the drive and less time at the pump.
