When RAM introduces a new pick-up truck, it's bound to be anything but ordinary.
RAM lovers have longed for it for a long time, and it's finally here. The Truck Division of Chrysler has been a heavyweight in the American automobile market for over a decade. The brand also has a retro appeal to it - it was launched as a spin-off to Dodge 12 years back. Since then, the RAM brand has constantly tried to keep up with its slogan: Guts. Glory. RAM. All RAM vehicles are launched to stay true to the bland slogan: to challenge the status quo of the automotive industry without compromising on the best-in-class features and attributes. And, the 2022 RAM 1500 TRX is no different. It packs a punch, powerful as ever, and leaves you in complete awe.
Like every vehicle, the 2022 RAM 1500 TRX has its standout features. What is its best feature? And what makes it so special? Let's find out.
When RAM introduces a new pick-up truck, it's bound to be anything but ordinary. While the 2022 RAM TRX has a plethora of extraordinary features, the best part about it is that it boasts more than one best-in-class feature. Based on its 0 to 60 miles per hour time, top speed, horsepower, and torque, the 2022 RAM TRX is the most powerful pick-up truck in the world. The feeling of climbing up the all-new RAM TRX and getting hold of the steering wheel is special. Once you kickstart this monster, it has the capability of going from 0 to 60 miles per hour in just 4.5 seconds - a figure that is bettered by no other pick-up truck in the automobile market right now. At its best, the all-new RAM beast can hit up to 118 miles per hour. Driving the 2022 RAM TRX gives you a dose of adrenaline rush. Based on horsepower, it is the most powerful production street-legal half-ton pick-up truck in the automotive market. Along with 702 hp, it can produce up to 650 lb-ft torque - another attribute that remains unmatched among pick-up trucks.

RAM doesn't just manufacture pick-up trucks. They churn out luxurious demons that look as good as they perform. And the 2022 RAM TRX is no different. A lot has been said about RAM trucks and their looks over the years, but the 2022 model surpasses all expectations. It is sleeker and wider than ever before - about eight inches wider than the previous RAM 1500 model. Its menacing stance will intimidate every other vehicle on the road. Complementing the wide fenders and the menacing stance are seven strategically placed air-flow features that make driving a breeze. The lighting is pretty sick too. The LED amber identification lamps are integrated into the fully functional hood scoop, and the result is glorious. All these outstanding style features are topped up by the eye-catching R-A-M badge on the grille. Not only does it stamp its authority and get the on-looker's attention, but it also acts as an air-flow feature that helps provide up to 32.9 liters of air to the engine every minute. Pretty cool, don't you think?

The 2022 RAM TRX is a performance powerhouse. The makers call it a modern engineering marvel, and they are not wrong. Rockets took humans to the moon. While the all-new TRX cannot take you to the moon, it can take you to quite a few places. A casual drive downtown? Check. Off-road driving? Yes. Baja beast? Of course, yes. The 2022 TRX is a versatile beast. You can take over several terrains and always stay in command. It also happens to be the only beast in the automobile market that boasts the Bilstein Black Hawk e2 shock system. Whether you're exploring the rocks, taking over dunes, or getting past tricky roads, the Bilstein Black Hawk e2 shock system is designed to get all 702 hp to the ground. The Bilstein algorithm is designed around the extreme performance needs of the 2022 TRX. It constantly monitors vehicle sensors and adapts to speed, throttle position, braking torque, steering control, and more. The result? The smoothest driving experience and optimal body control on and as well as off-road. The performance is further enhanced by technology that is common in the aerospace and motorsport industry. Each hose is shielded by a braided stainless steel outer layer and sealed using a metal-to-metal process. This allows the hoses to withstand very high temperatures, accommodate pressures over 5800 psi, and protect against abrasion and corrosion. Each shock is fueled by a pressurized nitrogen gas charge in an independent remote reservoir, allowing for extreme suspension articulation. At the heart of all the action is a supercharged 6.2 L HEMI V8 engine. Words aren't enough to describe this engine. It's beyond anything you've seen in a RAM pick-up truck before. The twin-screw supercharger gives you near-instantaneous torque, for an off-the-line jolt that you’ll want to experience over and over again.
On the inside, we have a flat-bottom steering wheel that boasts integrated aluminum shift paddles, and available carbon fiber and Alcantara suede accents. The 12-inch customizable NAV touchscreen is loaded with a suite of performance and off-road pages. Carrying this monster are the 35-inch Goodyear Wrangler Territory All-Terrain tires with traction-focused tread and Beadlock-capable sidewalls.
RAM is also offering a 2022 TRX IGNITION EDITION that is limited to just 875 models. These special edition TRX models stand out with bold exterior paint, copperhead interior accents, and exclusive 18-inch black wheels. If you like to build your vehicle, the American brand also allows you to customize your 2022 RAM TRX like never before.
