At Orange Coast Chrysler Dodge Jeep® RAM FIAT, we help contractors and fleet operators configure a chassis-cab that supports long days on the job, confident towing, and easy upfitting. With strong engine options and a rugged foundation, this truck is built for capability you can feel every day across Southern California.
Power and Performance
The 2026 RAM 3500 Chassis Cab offers two proven engines engineered for heavy workloads. The 6.4-liter HEMI® V8 delivers up to 410 horsepower for confident acceleration with equipment loaded. An available 6.7-liter Cummins® inline-six turbodiesel engine emphasizes torque for towing, hauling, and extended upfit options. Both systems support smooth control on the road, giving drivers a stable, grounded feel during long workdays.
A steel frame rated at 50,000 pounds per square inch reinforces durability, making the truck well-suited for hauling tools, transporting materials, or supporting specialized commercial bodies. The electronic front-axle disconnect on four-wheel-drive models enhances efficiency when additional traction is not required, keeping performance responsive in varying conditions.
Technology Features
Inside the 2026 RAM 3500 Chassis Cab, technology focuses on productivity and driver comfort. An electronic column shifter opens floor space for gear, while practical controls sit within easy reach. The available 2.4-kilowatt onboard power system adds real job-site versatility, supplying electricity for tools or auxiliary equipment without relying on an external generator.
Active Air™ grille shutters help regulate engine temperature and airflow, aiding efficiency during long highway stretches or slow movement between job sites. Drivers also benefit from available Uconnect connectivity, creating an environment that feels organized and dependable throughout the workday.
Safety Features
Advanced safety systems help deliver steady confidence behind the wheel of the 2026 RAM 3500 Chassis Cab. Available features in this new RAM truck include forward collision warning with automatic emergency braking, adaptive cruise control, and pedestrian detection—systems designed to support awareness when navigating busy areas or tight commercial spaces.
Standard four-wheel antilock disc brakes and electronic stability control help maintain secure stopping and controlled handling, even with weight on the frame. A rearview camera assists when maneuvering into loading zones or positioning a trailer.
