Unpacking the Tech in the Ultimate Off-Road Truck

The 2021 RAM 1500 TRX takes the already amazing RAM 1500 to bring us an incredible off-road pickup truck that touts fearlessness and all-terrain capability. Utilizing a supercharged 6.2-liter HEMI^® V8 engine, the truck gives you 702 horsepower and 650 lb-ft of torque to play around with while giving you advanced four-wheel drive that puts it to good use. While we may all know about the power that may be under the hood, strap yourself in as we explore the technology that’s been packed into this incredible RAM off-road truck.

Technology for the Off-Road

Taking you off-road to conquer any terrain you set your wheels on is an advanced technology that ensures that you have confidence whether you’re in sand, mud, snow, or rocks. The Drive Mode Selector has been placed above the transfer case switches for convenience and offers various drive modes, modulating the four-wheel drive system and changing the personality of the RAM 1500 TRX. Power is modulated, wheel spin is monitored, and torque is split between the front and rear axles as you navigate over various terrain. Choose between Normal, Wet/Snow, Off-Road, and Baja, and you’ll get to experience the thrill of the world without trepidation. Set the drive selector to Baja mode and the RAM 1500 TRX calibrates the four-wheel drive with the steering system, stability control, and suspension for optimal performance on loose surfaces.

When you’re on solid ground, slide the Drive Mode Selector into Launch Mode and get ready for liftoff. Once your RPM is set, and you unleash all 702 horses, wheel speed sensors monitor for wheel hop and immediately provide inputs to the powertrain to regain full grip without inhibiting performance.

Technology You Can Touch

Climb inside, and you’ll find a plethora of technology at your fingertips that not only makes the journey easier but also keeps you in-tune with your truck. The available digital rearview mirror gives you an uncompromised view of what’s behind you, while you view your past on a crystal clear 9.2-inch LCD monitor. If you have a trailer in tow, you can take advantage of the available Trailer Reverse Steer Control. The ingenious feature allows you to use a dial to point the trailer in the direction you want your trailer to go, while the system modulates steering for easy maneuverability.

If you crave infotainment, you won’t be disappointed with the thanks to the 12-inch UConnect^® 4C touchscreen infotainment system. Not only does the advanced system feature seamless smartphone integration thanks to Apple Carplay^® and Android Auto^™, but the system also features turn by turn navigation, so you’re never lost no matter where the adventure takes you. An all-new available head-up display even allows you to see up to five content areas at once, so distraction becomes a thing of the past.
