Ram 1500 2024 Q&As
Check out real-world situations relating to the Ram 1500 here, particularly what our experts have to say about them.
- What towing capacity do I need for a float with two horses?
The rule of thumb is that a float with two horses on board is around the 2000kg mark, so that’s the absolute bare minimum towing limit you’d be looking at. Even then, by the time you add a couple of saddles, some feed bins and whatever else it is horsey people cart around, you could easily be looking at 2.5 or even three tonnes.
With that in mind, the smart move would be to buy a dual-cab ute with as much towing capacity as possible. The good news there is that many of the popular choices can tow a braked trailer weighing anything up to 3.5 tonnes. Think about it; if a ute can tow 3.5 tonnes, it should cope easily with two tonnes.
If, on the other hand, we’re talking a three-axle float and a pair of Clydesdale horses, you might have to look at one of the US-made utes from the likes of RAM or other US-market brands. And even then, you need to be careful: Even though some versions of the RAM ute can legally tow 4500kg with a braked trailer, to do so and not exceed the GCM (the combined mass of the vehicle and trailer) the payload in the tray falls to less than 100kg.

Ram 1500 2024 Interior
The Ram 1500’s interior is classy and inviting, with an almost European aspect to the dashboard’s design symmetry and execution. The analogue instrument dials are especially Italianesque. Racy.
With so much space, there’s a feeling of airiness and light streaming through. Storage is fairly good, ventilation is excellent, and the driving position first class – unless, again, you’re in the base Big Horn, since the driver’s seat lacks a height adjuster.
Indeed, the entry-level Ram 1500 misses out on tonnes of convenience features.
Other points worth highlighting include a high level of fit and finish, excellent vision, a simple and intuitive multimedia system and a brace of hidden cubbies for laptops and the like, underneath the floor.
Aiding access are pillar-sited grab handles, while the rear doors open at right angles. And there’s a natty little back window that electrically slides open and shut.
Ram 1500 2024 Seats
Though there is certainly space for six people, the Ram 1500 is a five-seater only proposition in Australia. What looks like a front centre armrest that should fold up to allow for a third front-bench occupant is actually fixed. Blame Australian Design Rules for that omission.
Covered in a cool grey cloth, the front seats are flat yet comfy, but – in the base Big Horn – don’t bother searching for the lumbar support or height lifter as per more-expensive grades.
The rear bench has a backrest that is fixed, and nor does the cushion slide. Three can fit easily, while a centre armrest with cupholders is fitted.
Ram 1500 2024 Speed
The Ram 1500 can sprint from standstill to 100km/h (0-100km/h) in 7.5 seconds, on the way to a top speed of nearly 200km/h.

Ram 1500 2024 Boot Space
The standard Ram 1500 offers 1.7 cubic metres of capacity, and comes with a bed step for easier access, a sprayed bedliner, lighting, four fixed tie-down hooks, a damped tailgate and a towbar with wiring.
The 6’4” tub has an 878kg maximum payload, while the tape measure reveals a 1937mm length, 1687mm width (with 1295mm between the arches) and a 545mm depth.
Ram 1500 2024 Range
The 1500’s eTorque mild-hybrid system features stop/start functionality and brake-energy recuperation, as well as cylinder-deactivation at speed, to help improve range and efficiency.
The combined average fuel consumption figure is 12.2 litres per 100km, which equates to a carbon dioxide emission reading of 283 grams/km.
Running on standard unleaded petrol in the 98-litre fuel tank, the theoretical range average is over 800km.
