View Inventory View Gallery Contact Us
Ram has always delivered when it comes to capability, and the 2026 Ram 2500 takes things a step further. This year brings fresh style and more technology with the addition of the Black Express and Warlock packages, both designed to give the truck a unique, aggressive presence. Inside, an available 12-inch full-colour digital cluster display has been added, providing a customizable and modern interface for drivers. It’s a well-rounded refresh that adds to an already proven heavy-duty platform.
Power Backed Performance
The 2026 model offers two serious engine options to match different needs. The standard 6.4-litre HEMI V8 delivers 405 horsepower and 429 lb-ft of torque, capable of handling a maximum gas payload of 1,959 kgs. For those needing maximum muscle, the available High-Output 6.7-litre Cummins Turbo Diesel I6 is the star. Paired with a TorqueFlite HD eight-speed transmission, it generates up to 430 horsepower and a Best-in-Class 1,075 lb-ft of torque, with a maximum towing capacity of 20,000 lbs. Whether hauling equipment out to a job site or pulling a fifth-wheel through the hills, this truck has the muscle to back it up.
Built for Capability
Every detail of the Ram 2500 is engineered to help get big jobs done. Features like integrated towing hardware, an available Trailer Reverse Steering Control system, and Trailer Tire Pressure Monitoring make towing simpler and safer.
For those who rely on their truck year-round, the Snow Plow Prep package equips the Ram 2500 for Calgary’s long winters. Add the available Auto-Level Rear Air Suspension, and the ride is smooth whether loaded up or empty. With available skid plates, Bilstein® shocks, and Ram’s proven suspension design, it’s just as ready for gravel backroads as it is for city driving.
Striking Looks
The 2026 version stands out with bold styling and functional upgrades from 2025. The Mopar Sport Performance Hood, available with select packages, adds a more aggressive look. Standard LED headlights and taillights, available power side running boards, and the dampened tailgate with optional power release make it as practical as it is stylish.
Drivers can also opt for the RamBox Cargo Management System, which provides lockable, drainable side storage bins with LED lighting and even a 115-volt outlet for tools or tailgate gear. Pair it with the available 2.4-kilowatt onboard power panel, and the Ram 2500 doubles as a mobile generator.
Interior Comfort and Technology
Inside, this workhorse blends ruggedness with refinement. Depending on trim, buyers can choose from durable cloth to premium leather with wood accents. Flexible seating options include 40/20/40 split-folding front benches, reclining Mega Cab rear seats, and clever storage solutions like the Class-Exclusive fold-flat load floor and in-floor Ram bins.
On the tech front, the Uconnect 5 system is standard across the lineup with support for Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, Bluetooth, and navigation. Screens range from the standard 8.4-inch display up to the largest-in-class 14.4-inch touchscreen, plus an available 10.25-inch passenger display.
The available Harman Kardon premium audio system with 17 speakers and active noise cancellation elevates the cabin into a mobile concert hall. Dual wireless charging pads and a reconfigurable centre console with room for a 15-inch laptop make it practical for workdays too.
Safety and Driver Assistance
The latest 2500 is equipped with over 100 standard and available safety features, giving Calgary drivers added peace of mind. Key highlights include Forward Collision Warning with Active Braking, Adaptive Cruise Control, and LaneSense Lane Departure Warning with Lane Keep Assist.
Additional available systems such as Drowsy Driver Detection, Traffic Sign Recognition, and a 360° Surround View Camera with Trailer Surround View further boost safety when towing or navigating tight job sites. For families, the Rear Seat Reminder Alert adds extra security.
