Mated with an 8-speed automatic transmission, it will provide you with a smooth experience every time you get behind the wheel.
 

There are also two drivetrains to pick between - 4x2 and 4x4. The 4x2 system boasts the highest pulling rate capped at 5,783 kg (12,750 lbs). Meanwhile, the 4x4 version is able to handle an attachment weighing up to 5,175 kg (11,410 lbs).
 

This particular motor can also be coupled with the eTorque mild hybrid system, which adds 130 lb-ft of torque for improved acceleration at low speeds. This enhancement is typically found on models with the GT Package.
