Your Guide to the 2026 RAM HD

Exterior

The 2026 Ram HD features updated grilles that vary by trim level, giving each model a distinct appearance. Standard LED headlamps come on all models, while premium LED headlamps with twin bi-functional projectors are available. The front end projects a bold presence, with functional design elements that support heavy-duty work. New incandescent taillamps are standard across the lineup.

The cargo box uses double-wall steel construction for durability. RamBox is available for those who need secure, weatherproof storage built into the bed rails. The system includes lockable, illuminated, and drainable storage bins. A cargo rail system with four sliding, adjustable cleats and a bed divider can be added to enhance organisation. Available step designs and grab handles support easier bed access.

Interior

Inside the cabin, the 2026 Ram HD offers new technology that improves both function and comfort. The Uconnect 5 system features either a 12-inch or available 14.5-inch touchscreen display with split-screen capability. Both screens use Full Array Local Dimming technology for better contrast and visibility. The interface responds quickly, with touchscreen input processing in as little as 0.05 seconds.

An available segment-first 10.25-inch passenger screen offers three functions: co-pilot assistance for navigation and device management, entertainment via HDMI connection, and exterior camera views. Only the front passenger can see this screen, allowing them to connect phones or tablets and mirror content through the Uconnect system. Available dual wireless phone charging pads keep devices powered. The 12.3-inch digital gauge cluster displays nearly two dozen different menus, including driver-assist technologies and vehicle information.

Powertrain

The 2026 Ram HD offers two engine choices. The 6.7-litre Cummins High-Output Turbo Diesel produces 430 horsepower and 1,075 lb-ft of torque. This inline-six engine uses a redesigned block and head, heavy-duty pistons, a new performance intake manifold, a new turbo, and a higher-pressure fuel system. The engine features top-feed injectors and integrated fuel filters for easier service. Glow plugs assist cold-weather starting.

The standard 6.4-litre HEMI V-8 delivers 405 horsepower and 429 lb-ft of torque. Both engines pair with the TorqueFlite HD eight-speed automatic transmission, which includes a new electronic column shifter. The transmission uses a lower cruise engine rpm for improved efficiency and features wide gear ratios that allow for a reduction in rear axle ratio without losing capability. The system recognises whether the truck is loaded or unloaded and allows smooth second-gear starts when unladen.

Technology

The Uconnect 5 system operates up to five times faster than previous generations. An available fully digital rearview mirror with tow mode provides an unobstructed rear view using a rear-facing camera. The mirror toggles between digital and traditional reflective modes with a simple switch. Power telescoping trailer tow mirrors extend away from the truck to improve sightlines while towing.

Available Trailer reverse steering control lets the driver enter trailer measurements before the camera tracks the trailer position during backing. The driver rotates a dial left or right in the direction they want the trailer to go while the system controls the steering wheel. Trailer-Tow Pages consolidate comprehensive trailer monitoring information, including Trailer Light Check-out, available trailer tire pressure monitoring, Trailer Brake Status, and auxiliary camera shortcuts in one touchscreen application.

An available on-board power inverter offers up to 2.4 kilowatts with two covered outlets located inside the bed. With the engine running and the truck parked, the inverter can be activated via the touchscreen and a switch near the outlets. The engine increases rpm to support the inverter's power output. Available class-exclusive dual wireless phone charging enhances connectivity for front passengers.
