For the best Ram 1500 fuel economy, go with the 3.6-liter Pentastar V-6 engine with eTorque. This engine produces up to 305 horsepower and 269 pound-feet of torque.

Next up to the plate is the 5.7-liter HEMI V-8 engine. This engine makes 395 horsepower and 410 pound-feet of torque. A 2WD setup with an eight-speed automatic transmission gives you an EPA-estimated 18/23 MPG (City/Highway).1 The EPA-estimated MPG becomes 18/22 MPG (City/Highway) with 4WD.1
Last but not least is the 6.2-liter supercharged HEMI V-8 engine, which is only available on the Ram 1500 TRX trim. It offers incredible power and thrills, with horsepower, 650 pound-feet of torque, and a top speed of 118 mph. This Ram 1500 powertrain only comes with 4WD and uses an eight-speed automatic transmission to get an EPA-estimated 10/14 MPG (City/Highway/Combined).1 Admittedly, fuel economy isn't this engine's strong suit, but its supercharger provides near-instant torque and can withstand 1,595 psi.
If having the best 2024 Ram 1500 MPG is your top priority, the 3.6-liter Pentastar V-6 engine with eTorque is the best option.

Find Your Next Ram 1500 at Our Dealership
A Ram 1500 offers more than fuel efficiency. It is a capable tower and hauler, and it's great for off-roading, especially if you select certain trims and a 4WD drivetrain.
While this truck is built to work and work hard, that doesn't mean it doesn't have a playful side. Its smooth handling and Uconnect infotainment offerings can help keep your family comfortable and entertained on your journeys, and it can just as easily help you bring along the family camper as it can transport a utility trailer to a jobsite. When you stop by, you can feel its power and hear its rumble for yourself on a test drive.
However, if you discover that this truck is not the right one for you, there is always the rest of our Ram inventory. The Ram 2500 is a more heavy-duty version of its Ram 1500 sibling – and let's not forget about the Ram 3500, the strongest of them all.
There are also alternatives to buying a new truck outright. Check out our Ram lease specials to see how you can save on the opportunity to drive a brand-new truck for just a few years. When your lease is up, you can upgrade to a newer model or decide to buy your Ram 1500 after all.
Regardless of where you want to go with a Ram 1500, we want to be the people who help you get there. If you have any questions, please reach out to our dealership. One of our team members will happily work with you to find the right trim level, engine option, and everything in between.
