How much power does a Dodge Cummins have?

The power output of a Dodge Cummins engine varies significantly depending on the year, model, and specific engine configuration. There's no single answer. Cummins engines have been used in Dodge trucks for many years, and power ratings have increased steadily.

You'll find outputs ranging from under 200 horsepower in older models to well over 400 horsepower in more recent high-output versions. Some heavily modified aftermarket engines can produce far more.

To find the horsepower of a *specific* Dodge Cummins, you need to know:

* The year of the truck: This significantly impacts the engine options available.

* The model of the truck: Different models (e.g., Ram 2500 vs. Ram 3500) may have different engine options.

* The engine designation: The specific Cummins engine code (e.g., 5.9L, 6.7L, ISB, I6) will determine the horsepower.

With that information, you can find the factory horsepower rating in the owner's manual, online resources like the Dodge/Ram website (for newer models), or automotive databases.
