First and foremost, it is important to specify that the 2024 model year of RAM pickups will be the very last year during which the RAM 1500 Classic will be available on the Canadian market, placing the focus on all the other trim levels of the 1500 for 2025. 

Another major difference between these two model years: the formidable TRX model has been removed from the catalog for 2025, while a brand-new model, the Tungsten, has been added.  

 
Given the extensive experience RAM has as a manufacturer, it comes as no surprise that the available trim levels remain abundant and options generous, in order to adapt to every buyer's needs, no matter if it is in terms of finding the perfect work horse or the ideal companion for your adventures! 

Here are the different trims offered for each model year, with their respective prices (MSRP):
