2020 Ram 3500 heavy duty interior spied

The 2020

Ram 2500

and

3500

trucks continue their steady testing regimen, and the engineers

are still keeping the trucks under careful wraps

. Or at least they are with the outside. As the photos above show, some test drivers got a little sloppy with interior coverings, and our spy photographer took advantage of the situation. And the good news is that the interior will be basically identical to that of the 2019

Ram 1500

.

We say good news because the Ram’s stylish interior and well-thought-out controls are part of

why it’s our favorite fullsize pickup right now

. This particular model has the 8.4-inch UConnect touchscreen infotainment. Since the entire center stack is the same as the

1500

, we wouldn’t be surprised if the monster 12-inch display were to be available on high-end trims.

The small 5-inch infotainment

will probably be the standard option.

Another interesting detail is that this test truck does not have the rotary shift dial shared with the Ram 1500 and various other

Chrysler

products. Instead, it has a traditional steering column-mounted shift lever.

As for the outside, nothing new is revealed to us. We shouldn’t have to wait too long to see the production truck, though. We expect it to be revealed early next year. What we’ve seen so far seems to indicate that the heavy duty Rams will have styling a little closer to the old model than to the new 1500. Still, expect grilles and other cues from the lighter duty model, just translated to a slightly different shape.
