The 2021 Ram 1500 TRX Has Power That’s Unbeatable
Test drives and reviews repeatedly reveal the 2021 Ram 1500 TRX is the most powerful pickup truck ever. It’s power doesn’t just come from speed, though, because it is a well-rounded high performing four-door, five-passenger off-roader.
Power and Performance
Sometimes called the “T. Rex,” the Ram 1500 TRX 2021 features a 6.2-liter supercharged V8 engine that produces a whopping 702 horsepower and 650 lb.-ft. of torque. Along with an eight-speed automatic transmission, the TRX has a fuel efficiency of 10 mpg city and 14 mpg highway. It comes standard with four-wheel drive (4WD) and a Crew Cab body with a maximum towing capacity of 8,100 pounds.
With this powerful setup, the 1500 TRX bests its leading competitors, like the Ram SRT-10 segment and the 2020 Ford F-150 Raptor. Additionally, the Ram 1500’s chassis was reengineered to transform it into an off-road supertruck capable of beating out every other pickup on the market. It’s speed comes from a giant 29-liter air box designed to filter out particles on the four-by-four drivetrain with a low-range transfer case, locking rear differential, and a full-time all-wheel drive (AWD) capability. All of these features combine to make the TRX capable of reaching 60 mph in just over four seconds and covering a quarter of a mile in just under 13 seconds.
Featuring a Strong Exterior
Along with the power upgrades to the engine, the 2021 Ram 1500 TRX’s frame was beefed up to include stronger steel sections and a suspension that is 6-inches-wider than the rest of the lineup. Broad and muscular, the TRX even requires amber indicator lights like a heavy-duty truck. It comes in seven color options: Diamond Black Crystal Pearl, Bright White, Flame Red, Granite Crystal Metallic, Anvil Clear Coat, Billet Silver Metallic, and Hydro-Blue Pearl.
The TRX really shines off-road. Even on rough terrain, the TRX offers 13 inches of front-wheel travel and 14 inches of rear-wheel travel. At high speeds, the vehicle’s body and setup makes bumps disappear, leaving you driving an off roader that feels light as a feather. Additionally, the new vehicle’s suspension uses aluminum control arms, four-corner coil springs, and unique computer-controlled remote reservoir Bilstein shocks capable of handling 100 mph trips through the desert and the occasional high jump over rugged terrain. This is all topped off with standard 35-inch all-terrain tires that provide grip to the pavement.
