An all-new Ram 1500 made a big splash for the first time in almost a decade. As the top FCA seller in Canada, the 2019 Ram 1500 offers up the 3.6-litre Pentastar V6 and 5.7-litre HEMI V8 as engine choices. However, both will be assisted by a 48-volt eTorque mild hybrid system with stop/start technology that boosts torque by 90 lb.-ft. in the V6 and 130 in the V8, and provides better fuel economy in the process. Other key points are a reduction in weight by 102 kg, six different grille options and a fourth-generation Uconnect infotainment unit. It will be coming out in spring 2018.
