- The 2025 Ram 1500 is expected to receive a facelift based on new spy photos.
- Images of a camouflaged crew-cab model reveal updated headlights, hint at other cosmetic changes, and suggest an updated touchscreen.
- The refreshed half-ton Ram is also expected to adopt a version of the Hurricane twin-turbo inline-six, which currently makes up to 510 horsepower.
Ram’s full-size pickup truck should soon have a fresh face as well as other exterior and interior updates. Based on images captured by our spy photographer, it appears the 2025 Ram 1500 will definitely receive restyled headlights, which are partially visible through the truck’s camouflage.
With just the half-ton Ram’s front and rear ends disguised, it’s presumed they’ll be the only parts to see notable cosmetic changes. We expect the new headlights to be accompanied by revised grille designs and possibly different bumpers. The truck should also gain a new set of taillights, tweaks to the rear bumper, and possibly updated tailgate appliqués. A variety of updated wheel options are expected too.
Inside, we don’t think the Ram 1500 will undergo any major surgery. We’d wager that a fully digital gauge cluster will finally be offered along with an updated infotainment system. One of our spy photos shows the truck’s vertically oriented touchscreen, which could potentially be enhanced with features not currently found on the current model’s available 12.0-inch unit.
Not only will the 2025 Ram 1500 benefit from updated styling, but it’s also expected to adopt Stellantis’s new Hurricane twin-turbocharged 3.0-liter inline-six. Currently, the Jeep Wagoneer and the Jeep Grand Wagoneer are the only two models with the engine. Both pair with an eight-speed automatic transmission, and the Wagoneer’s 420-hp engine works with rear- or all-wheel drive. Meanwhile, the Grand Wagoneer comes standard with all-wheel drive and features a high-output Hurricane engine that makes 510 horses and 500 pound-feet of torque.
It remains to be seen if the ’25 Ram 1500 will continue to offer any of the current engine options. The roster for the 2023 model year includes a 305-hp 3.6-liter V-6 and a 395-hp 5.7-liter V-8 with or without a 48-volt hybrid system. More details on the refreshed pickup truck will likely come sometime later this year, so stay tuned.

Eric Stafford’s automobile addiction began before he could walk, and it has fueled his passion to write news, reviews, and more for Car and Driver since 2016. His aspiration growing up was to become a millionaire with a Jay Leno–like car collection. Apparently, getting rich is harder than social-media influencers make it seem, so he avoided financial success entirely to become an automotive journalist and drive new cars for a living. After earning a journalism degree at Central Michigan University and working at a daily newspaper, the years of basically burning money on failed project cars and lemon-flavored jalopies finally paid off when Car and Driver hired him. His garage currently includes a 2010 Acura RDX, a manual ’97 Chevy Camaro Z/28, and a ’90 Honda CRX Si.
