Ram 2500 vs. Chevy Silverado 2500

A lot of power lies between two of the most-recognized trucks in the industry: the 2022 Ram 2500 vs. 2022 Chevy Silverado 2500. Though they may sound similar, drivers are surprised to find that these trucks have major differences in terms of performance, safety, and infotainment.

We at Cecil Atkission Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram have written up this easy-to-read comparison between the two models. If you’re an interested driver near Burnet, Marble Falls, and Lampasas, TX, keep reading to see which truck has the most for your drive.

PERFORMANCE

Get around with ease when loaded with a trailer, off the beaten path, or down the length of the highway with the powerful engine under your truck’s hood. The Ram 2500 has two engines: the 6.4L HEMI® V8 engine and the optional 6.7L Cummins® Turbo Diesel I6 engine.

Unparalleled Power

As you can see, both standard engines keep up with one another for the most part, though the Ram 2500 does offer slightly higher horsepower and much higher towing capacity. Simply put: if you’re looking for the most out of a standard model, the Ram model is capable of more power.

However, it’s not all about the numbers. To receive a truck that can handle any task, you’ll want a model that comes with its fair share of performance features. For example, the Ram 2500 uses available Bilstein® Gas-Charged Monotube Shocks to tackle any uneven or rough terrain. Once engaged, they provide a smoother ride so that you can focus on making your own path.

Unfortunately, the Silverado does not offer a trim level built for off-roading or include any off-roading features.

Safety starts with sight. The Ram 2500 offers an available Adaptive Forward Lighting System to help drivers see every aspect in and around their vehicle. The system comes complete with LED lighting.

Clear Sights Ahead

Some other available features are:

• 15° turning headlamps: When traveling on dark roads, activate these headlights to help you see around corners. You can adjust them up to 15°.
• 360° Surround View Camera: This camera system comes with Trailer Reverse Guidance View, which provides a view of both sides of your truck and trailer.
• LED Trailer Hitch Light: Thanks to this integrated light, no matter the time of day, drivers can set up their hitch. The light effectively illuminates your hitching area so you can safely and securely hook up your trailer or other attachment.

These features are meant to assist drivers as they ride so their line of vision is clear for the journey ahead. The Chevy Silverado does offer available advanced headlights and cargo bed LED lighting; however, it does not offer an assistive lighting system such as the Ram’s.

TECHNOLOGY

Modern Technologies

For example, the Ram 2500 has the available advanced Uconnect® 5C system, which adds more inches to your touchscreen and up to five user profiles, a customizable home screen, and dual-phone connectivity for passenger convenience. There, you can enjoy interfaces, see navigation, and control your entertainment and media settings.

When you find your perfect road playlist, add the optional 900-watt Harman Kardon® Premium Audio system and surround yourself and your passengers with a 17-world-class speaker system.

Meanwhile, the Chevy Silverado can be equipped with an available 8-inch Chevy Infotainment 3 System with optional navigation. Not only will you experience lesser display real estate in the Silverado 2500, but your listening experience won’t be as concert-like,
