2019 Ram 1500 vs. 2019 Chevrolet Silverado 1500

We know Dayton and Springfield drivers need a truck that can transition from weekend to work and back to weekend, leaving just a few choices — like 2019 RAM 1500 vs. 2019 Chevy Silverado 1500. Today we compare these two titans to see which wins in performance, cargo management, and interior features at New Carlisle Chrysler Jeep Dodge Ram.

RAM 1500 vs. Silverado 1500: Performance

The RAM 1500 and Silverado 1500 are real trucks, but when you put the specs side-by-side, the Chevy just comes up short:

• RAM 1500: Sports a V6 engine that generates 305 hp and has best-in-class V8 towing of 12,750 pounds.
• Silverado 1500: The Silverado’s V6 delivers 285 hp and also falls behind the RAM on towing capacity, maxing out at 12,200 pounds.

If you need a powerful truck for your Huber Heights job site, the RAM 1500 has now established itself as above the Silverado — and the Ford F-150.

RAM 1500 vs. Silverado 1500: Cargo Management

Pickup trucks are built for working, and the RAM 1500 and Silverado 1500 can both haul quite a bit. But drivers expect more from a modern truck, and RAM has innovated the truck bed with features you won’t find on the Chevy:

• Reconfigurable Center Console: Keep your interior organized and stocked with what you need thanks to the RAM’s class-exclusive features.
• RamBox® Cargo Management System: This available class-exclusive cargo box adds two drainable storage bins that you can easily lock — complete with LED lighting so you can always find what you’re looking for.

RAM 1500 vs. Silverado 1500: Interior Features

While both the RAM 1500 and Silverado 1500 offer connectivity features like Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto®, the RAM offers features missing on the Silverado:

• Uconnect® 4C NAV: Voice commands and handsfree calling make driving and calling easier, and Uconnect comes with a one-year trial of the SiriusXM All Access Package and offers 3D maps with Uconnect® Navigation.
• 12-inch touchscreen: The largest-in-class touchscreen lets you customize the home screen, unlike virtually every other touchscreen in the auto industry. Pinch and zoom, control just like your phone, and always have access to your tech.
• Harman Kardon® Premium Audio System: It’s a 900W sound system, for a soundtrack that’s as powerful as your pickup truck.
