Automotive industry Off-road obsession continues, Ram added a new off-road toy. The pickup brand used the Texas State Fair to showcase the 2023 Ram 2500 Heavy Duty Rebel. Honestly, it’s a truck they should have made years ago.
Ram says the new Rebel 2500 is a combination of off-road performance with heavy-duty handling. The best of both worlds. Those off-road conveniences include off-road suspension, 33-inch all-terrain tires, skid plates for the gearshift box, and a fuel tank. You also get that goodness in the form of a five-link coil suspension that offers both excellent off-road wheel alignment and better load-carrying capacity. Speaking of which, this thing can carry 3,140 pounds and tow up to 16,870 pounds.
The bigger news here is the engine options. Buyers will have the option between the standard 410hp 6.4-litre Hemi V8 engine (possibly with an available WARN Zeon-12 winch priced at £12,000) or the bigger news, the 6.7-litre Cummins I6 diesel liter puts 370 horsepower and 850 pound-feet of torque. That’s the engine you’ll want.

Outside, you’ll be able to tell the Rebel 2500 apart by its unique badging and a special hood that Ram says is from Mopar. Inside you can have an old-school bench seat or individual buckets with leather seating. There’s also a 360-degree view camera that helps with both off-roading and towing.
Essentially what we have here is a Ram Power Wagon with a diesel engine, which Ram never did.
