RAM 1500 weight

RAM 1500 curb weight affects the fuel efficiency, handling, and overall driving experience. A heavier 1500 may have a more stable ride and handle better in adverse weather conditions, but it may also require more fuel and have slower acceleration.

On the other hand, a lighter RAM 1500 may boast of better MPG and quicker acceleration, though it may also have reduced stability and less control on the road.

The lightest RAM 1500 was produced in 2015 with a weight of 4510 lbs. And the heaviest model came off the production line in 2022 with 6396 lbs pounds in curb weight.
