We are in Duluth, Minnesota right now, driving the new 2020 Ram 1500 EcoDiesel lineup. While our driving impressions are under embargo until 12:01 a.m. EST on Tuesday, August 20th, 2019, Ram Trucks has just released pricing on the 2020 Ram 1500 EcoDiesel models.
The 2020 Ram 1500 with the third-generation 3.0-liter EcoDiesel V6 produces 260 horsepower @ 3,600 RPM and 480 lb.-ft of torque at 1,600 RPM, providing a class-leading half-ton diesel towing capacity of 12,560 lbs. when properly equipped. For the first time, the EcoDiesel will also be available across all trim levels of the Ram 1500, including the Rebel and allowing buyers more choice.
So what will the new third-generation EcoDiesel set you back? Try $4,995 USD over the standard 3.6-liter Pentastar V6 featuring the eTorque system, $3,300 over the 5.7-liter HEMI V8, and $3,000 over the standard 5.7-liter HEMI V8 with eTorque.
A 2020 Ram 1500 Tradesman Quad Cab 4×2 model, powered by the new EcoDiesel will start at $36,890 and does not include the destination charge of $1,695.
While EPA ratings have yet to be released, we have been able to share all of the details about what makes the third-generation EcoDiesel so new. But, be sure to check back on Tuesday for our full driving impressions on Ram’s latest powertrain offering.
Those numbers don’t look right. Since when is the 5.7l Hemi with eTorque $300 cheaper than the Hemi without eTorque?
Came here to say this, and the eTorque is not the “standard” engine.
For 2020 it is in some trims…
You folks have bound to look at the engine close enough to see if the diesel has eTorque or not???
No eTorque on the EcoDiesel, we originally thought it was going to have electric stop/start as FCA has mentioned for the upcoming Wrangler EcoDiesel but the Ram EcoDiesel doesn’t have that either.
Thanks
Good catch, 2 numbers got flipped around, it’s been fixed now.
Things have changed for 2020…
