An all-new Dodge Ram was released for 2019. Available only in the four-door crew-cab body style for now, the new Ram 1500 is offered in Big Horn, Rebel, Laramie and Limited trims for the GCC region. The exterior styling is a departure from the Ram’s previous three generations’ “big rig” looks, with a selection of grille designs and headlight configurations based on the trim you buy. The top-dog Limited features the most chrome, and also comes with 22-inch wheels and electric-folding side-steps. The Rebel gets a black plastic-cladded look with 18-inch wheels, slightly lifted ride height and fixed side steps. Inside, the abundantly-spacious Ram features stitched-leatherette on the dash, doors and sides of the centre-console as well as a huge 12-inch touchscreen in the Limited version. The screen is fairly responsive, and there are still physical buttons for the main a/c controls along the sides. The Rebel gets an 8.4-inch touchscreen. Aside from the wonderfully-configurable centre-console storage and two glove-boxes, there are also underfloor and underseat storage compartments in the rear-seat area. The useful lockable RamBox feature in the bed is carried over from the previous model and remains optional. The bed itself has LED lights and the tailgate is damped so it doesn’t slam open. It is still powered by a 5.7-litre “Hemi” V8 and mated to a knob-controlled 8-speed automatic. The motor has cylinder-deactivation tech. A 3.6-litre V6 will be offered later on the base trim. Underneath, the Ram’s ladder frame is held up by coil-spring rear suspension in contrast to rivals’ rear leaf springs. Height-adjustable air suspension is optional, as is a locking rear differential.
