The 2026 RAM 2500 Laramie Cummins High Output is a heavy-duty 4WD diesel ute designed for buyers needing serious towing capacity-its 8000kg limit and 1152Nm of torque from the 6.7L Cummins engine make it genuinely capable of hauling large trailers that lighter utes can't handle. The standout strength is its 313kW output paired with that torque delivery, offering the pulling power you'd expect from a premium American diesel without excessive fuel consumption at 12.4L/100km for a vehicle of this class. One consideration is the annual running costs of around $4593, which reflects the premium nature of diesel fuel and maintenance for this heavy-duty platform, so factor this into your long-term budget alongside the warranty period.

The 2026 RAM 2500 Laramie Cummins is a heavy-duty diesel ute built for serious work, delivering 1152Nm of torque and an impressive 8000kg towing capacity that makes it ideal for tradies and rural buyers who need genuine pulling power. Its standout strength is the legendary 6.7L Cummins diesel engine-proven across decades-paired with an automatic gearbox that handles demanding loads reliably, though you'll need to budget roughly $4593 annually for running costs given its 12.4L/100km consumption. Consider that with a kerb weight of 2948kg and 4WD capability, this is a serious workmate rather than a weekend cruiser, so ensure your use case justifies the commitment.
