Combining impressive towing power with advanced technology and premium comfort, the Ram 1500 continues to stand out as one of Canada’s most versatile full-size trucks.
When properly equipped, the 2026 Ram 1500 can tow up to 11,610 pounds, giving Canadians the confidence to handle everything from jobsite equipment to large RVs and recreational trailers. The available 3.0L Hurricane twin-turbo inline-six engine delivers strong horsepower and torque while maintaining smooth highway performance for long-distance road trips across Canada.

Available Trailer Reverse Steering Control helps simplify backing up a trailer, while integrated trailer brake controls and multiple camera views improve visibility when towing. Available air suspension can automatically level the truck while carrying heavy loads, helping improve stability and ride comfort.
Inside, the Ram 1500 offers one of the most refined cabins in the truck segment. Available heated and ventilated seating, large touchscreen displays, premium materials, and advanced driver-assistance features make it ideal for both hard work and long Canadian road trips.
