What is eTorque?

One system that’s critical to the RAM 1500 achieving such high mpg ratings is the eTorque system. Instead of an alternator, models equipped with eTorque use a 48-volt belt-driven motor that’s powered by a battery. While a mild hybrid system might seem more suited to hybrid and electric cars, it results in more torque, payload, and towing capability. Higher EPA-rated RAM 1500 mpg doesn’t hurt either.

RAM 1500 Efficiency Systems

Many unique systems contribute to the RAM 1500’s excellent fuel economy:

  • Transmission – A standard TorqueFlite eight-speed automatic transmission adjusts shift points for maximum efficiency and performance.
  • Design – For 2021, the all-new RAM 1500 features an elevated hood and redesigned roof to lower its drag coefficient.
  • Active Air Dam – Standard in the RAM 1500 Rebel and non-air suspension models, this class-exclusive air dam lowers once the truck reaches 30 miles per hour.
