New Ram Hurricane Engine

Introducing: the New Ram Hurricane Engine

If you're a longtime Ram shopper in Nashville, NC, you're probably familiar with the powerful V6 and HEMI V8 engines that appear under the hood of some of the most iconic pickup trucks ever made. But there's a new boss in town - it's the twin-turbocharged 3.0-liter inline-six (or straight-six) cylinder engine. Dubbed the Hurricane, this is one seriously impressive powerplant. Check out the incredibly potent 3.0-liter engine today with Rocky Mount Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram FIAT.

Twin-Turbo Power: the 3.0-liter Hurricane

Whereas older engines like the 3.6-liter Pentastar V6 and HEMI V8 relied on natural aspiration, the Hurricane engine brings two turbochargers and an efficient, balanced inline, or straight, cylinder configuration. That means more responsiveness, a linear powerband, and - best of all - potent power figures for Wilson, NC, drivers. The standard twin-turbo 3.0-liter Hurricane straight-six delivers 420 horsepower and 469 pound-feet of torque - 200 more pound-feet and 115 more horsepower than the 3.6-liter Pentastar V6. All while achieving superior fuel economy and towing capacity. That's right - the standard Hurricane straight-six can tow up to 11,550 pounds.
