Notes and sources

  1. Fuel economy: Natural Resources Canada's combined rating for the 1500 HFE EcoDiesel, 8.9 L/100 km (26.4 mpg, US gallons). The NRCan file is dated 2026-09-15, the Last-Modified sent by the server with nrcan_2015-2024.csv.↩
  2. CO₂: NRCan's tailpipe rating for the car driven as rated on the test cycle — 238 g/km, or 383 g/mi.↩
  3. Fuel cost: not estimated. This site has no diesel price source yet, so no cost is computed for a diesel car.↩
  4. Power: 260 hp is the rated figure, from NHTSA's CAFE market data. NHTSA is the US regulator.↩
  5. Crash rating: NHTSA rated vehicles under this nameplate, but the ratings differ between the configurations it tested and none of them is this car's, so no rating is stated.↩
  6. Recall campaigns: NHTSA's count for this variant (1500 CREW CAB), as of 2026-09-10 — a US register. Each is repaired free of charge by dealers.↩
  7. Complaints: NHTSA holds 70 for the 2022 1500, 6 of which describe a crash, fire, injury or death. The rate per 10,000 built is not computed: complaints no VIN places, or production no fuel code places, make the rate uncertain by more than 5%.↩
  8. Kerb weight: not published. No source states a curb weight for this car.↩
  9. Warranty: 3 years or 60,000 km, from Ram's published 2022 warranty statement, compiled into carstandings.com's warranty table.↩
  10. Registrations: 344 1500s of this model year on New York's roads, from the NY DMV registration file as of 2026-09-02.↩
  11. This car is measured on the diesel scale: litres per 100 km, the tailpipe CO₂ rating and whole-car horsepower. MPGe and charge-weighted CO₂ are electric-scale quantities and do not apply to it.↩
  12. Price: no free, resellable source publishes a price for any 2022 car sold in Canada, so none is shown for any car in this market.↩
