For the third year in a row, Fiat Chrysler’s 3.0-liter “EcoDiesel” engine was one of Ward's 10 Best Engines — and, for the second year in a row, it was also the only diesel on the list. This makes the EcoDiesel the longest continuous "10-Best" resident of any engine on the latest Ward's list.
Tom Murphy, executive editor of WardsAuto World, wrote, “the Ram 1500 proved superior and continues to impress us with ideal measures of power, torque, refinement and luxury-car smoothness.”
The engine contributes to best in class economy for both the Ram 1500 and the Jeep Grand Cherokee; it is matched to an eight speed automatic in both cases.
