If you are searching for a light-duty pickup that can handle your cargo demands, then you should turn your attention to the 2021 Ram 1500 Classic Tradesman. As the entry-level model, it allows you to choose between two powertrain options - both of which can be fitted with a 4x2 or 4x4 drivetrain to ensure truly custom performance.Â
Â
The standard version of the Classic Tradesman uses a 3.6-litre V6 engine paired with an 8-speed automatic transmission. Featuring an E-shifter, this particular unit delivers 305 hp and 269 lb-ft of torque (ideal for everyday cargo). Depending on the cab style, you can enjoy a fuel economy of up to 13.8 L/100 km in the city (17 mpg) and 9.4 L/100 km on the highway (25 mpg).
Â
For more power, you may want to test out the available 5.7-litre HEMI V8. Generating 395 hp and 410 lb-ft of torque, the block uses the same transmission as the V6. Don't fret about economy, however. Despite it strength, it will still generate 15.6 L/100 km in the city (15 mpg) and 10.7 L/100 km on the highway (22 mpg).
