It once was a compromise, pitting the built-in efficiencies of the
6-cylinder engine against the pickup standard: 4x4 capability. No
longer. Once again, new 2013 Ram 1500 breaks the rules, achieving
new benchmarks with the best V6 in our history — our award-winning
Pentastar V6 power plant with 305 horsepower and 269 lb-ft of torque.

figures and available 4x4
capability both rank high — but the Pentastar V6 story was written with
way-big-picture economies in mind. The engineering utilizes some of
the most advanced automotive engine technologies available; results are
exceptional, with an engineered-in focus on low cost of maintenance
over the life of the power plant.
The details prove it. This award-winning engine delivers an outstanding
balance of high specific output and high torque over a broad rpm band,
with notable control over noise, vibration, and harshness (NVH). Assets
include a “Silent Chain” timing drive — which also contributes to
durability; four valves per cylinder; a dual overhead cam design; high-flow
“tumble” intake ports; and an authoritative 10.2:1 compression ratio.
Further assets include the new pulse-width-modulated fuel pump and
cooling fan for more efficient fuel delivery and electrical load, Variable
Valve Timing (VVT), and a fine, sophisticated thermal management
system for optimal power, performance, and efficiency.
