Utility
There's no clear winner between the Ram 2500 and the Chevrolet Silverado 1500 Hybrid with respect to transporting cargo. Drivers with frequent child-duty might favor the Dodge Ram 2500 over the Chevrolet Silverado 1500 Hybrid. Towing is considerably more the Dodge Ram 2500's forte than it is the Chevrolet Silverado 1500 Hybrid's.

Performance
With that kind of horsepower, both the Dodge Ram 2500 and the Chevrolet Silverado 1500 Hybrid are genuine sportscars.

Dimensions
Your wallet will hurt more every time you fill up the Dodge Ram 2500 than the Chevrolet because of its larger tank. The Silverado 1500 Hybrid and the Dodge compete for the same parking spaces.

Cost
The destination charge is a standard charge for transporting the vehicle from its point of origin to the dealer. It costs about the same to get the Dodge Ram 2500 to the dealership as the Chevrolet Silverado 1500 Hybrid. Regarding MSRP, the Silverado 1500 Hybrid costs significantly more than the Dodge.

Handling
With their similar turning radii, the Ram 2500 and the Silverado 1500 Hybrid definitely handle almost the same into and out of tight spots.

Drivetrain
The Dodge Ram 2500's engine is a tad smaller than the Chevrolet's, but not terribly so. The Chevrolet Silverado 1500 Hybrid has no lessons to learn as far as torque from the Dodge Ram 2500.

Comfort
While the front cabin in the Chevrolet Silverado 1500 Hybrid offers a bit more head room than the Dodge Ram 2500, there frankly isn't much of a difference.

Warranty
The Chevrolet Silverado 1500 Hybrid and the Dodge Ram 2500 have the same basic warranty.
