RAM Trucks is releasing the new 1500 Express Crew V8 Hemi for the Australian and New Zealand market.
Sitting one step above the entry-level 1500 Express Quad, the Express Crew features more space, higher specification and an even sportier look.
“We’ve assessed the market and feel the time is right to build on the huge levels of passion for the RAM Trucks brand in Australia,” national sales manager Jeff Barber says.
“The 1500 Express Crew allows us to grow our product portfolio and offer a premium version of our entry level Express range. It also marks the first step in what will be an exciting product roll-out in 2020,” he says.
Priced from $89,950 plus on-road costs, the full-size 1500 Express Crew truck features the larger cabin found on the Laramie, meaning more head, shoulder and leg room for passengers than any other five-seat ute on the market.
The 1500 Express Crew includes updated connectivity with the 8.4-inch touchscreen featuring Apple CarPlay and Google Android and dual zone air conditioning.
Outside, the 5ft 7in tub with spray-in bed liner can be optioned with the RamBox cargo management system.The lockable storage units are built into the side rails of the tub and feature lighting and drainage.
Power is delivered by the 5.7-litre V8 Hemi engine, the only V8 currently available in the full-size pick-up segment. With 291kW and 556Nm of torque, the 1500 Express Crew delivers best-in-class towing capabilities with a maximum braked towing weight of 4.5 tonnes.
The new 1500 Express Crew sits between the 1500 Express Quad and the 1500 Laramie. In addition, RAM Trucks Australia also offers the 2500 and 3500 heavy duty American trucks to suit a range of customer needs.
The vehicle is fully factory-supported and backed by 50 RAM dealer networks across Australia and 13 in New Zealand.
