RAM 1500 Fuel Tank by Year

The Ram 1500 gas tank capacity listed here ranges from 23 to 35 gallons across the catalog years shown. The figures describe the range of capacities, not one capacity shared by every Ram 1500.

The catalog covers 2012-2022, and the listed capacity varies within that year range. The facts do not identify which year, trim, or engine has each capacity, so use the range as a guide rather than assuming a specific figure for your truck. If you need the exact capacity for a particular vehicle, confirm it on the door jamb or in the owner's manual.

Compare the year and engine details for your Ram 1500 when checking the catalog. Because the available facts do not break down capacity by year or engine, they cannot show how the tank size changes between configurations. Use the vehicle's door-jamb information or owner's manual to verify its figure.

Which catalog years and configurations are the most fuel efficient, plus tank size and estimated range where both exist.

The largest stored change occurs between 2012 and 2013, when highway mpg, city mpg, and tank change.
