The Ram 1500 with eTorque: A Mild Hybrid

If you purchase or lease a new Ram 1500 that comes with eTorque, which is available on my trim level, you're getting what's classified as a mild hybrid. That's because this eTorque system works to make a specific part of the vehicle more efficient, by adding more torque and giving your more wheel. It is an electric motor with regenerative braking which is attached to the crankshaft of the engine via a belt that adds torque in a stop/start situation. It is certainly helpful when you're towing, or have a lot of payload in your truck bed because it allows you engine to not need as much power, because this motor will help pick up some of the power, so you drive more efficiently.
