Ram 1500 2020 review: Laramie diesel tow test

Описание: The Ram 1500 diesel is finally here. This is arguably the big pick-up truck Aussies have been waiting for, because until now, if you wanted a Ram 1500 you had to have it with a petrol engine.

But the launch of the 2020 Ram 1500 Laramie EcoDiesel could well be the answer to plenty of people’s questions. Diesel is often preferred for those who tow heavy loads or lug a lot of weight on a regular basis, and it’s often a more affordable fuel type if you’re travelling outside the city limits, too.

For those thinking that a diesel version of the Ram 1500 would push it into new territory when it comes to fuel consumption – especially for a variant named EcoDiesel – there’s some bad news. We’ll get to that below.

For this test we did more than, er, 1500 kilometres to get an idea of how the Ram 1500 diesel handled itself. From a long highway trip to a heavy-duty towing review, this test aims to tell you everything you need.

If you need a comfortable and competent towing vehicle then the Ram 1500 Laramie EcoDiesel is a pretty strong contender.

It’s expensive, yes, and it doesn’t really tow $50,000 better than a Ford Ranger, for instance. But if you need a ute of this size and you plan to spend a lot of time touring, the Ram 1500 diesel is a solid option.
