2021 Ram 1500 TRX – Amityville New York
Vehicle Overview
When it comes to off-road performance-oriented pickup trucks, the Ford Raptor has gone a long time without much competition, and a lack of competition—particularly in a niche automotive segment—is never a good thing. The upcoming 2021 Ram 1500 TRX is Ram’s answer to the Raptor, and the TRX naming—as in T. Rex—is no coincidence. Ram is taking Ford head on, and early indications suggest that Ford is going to have quite the fight on its hands. Since Security Ram in in Amityville New York receives so many questions about the TRX, this early 2021 Ram 1500 TRX review is our attempt to answer them as much as possible. Be mindful that the final specifications have not been released yet. While this information is as accurate as possible as of this writing, some of these details are subject to change.
Exterior – 2021 Ram 1500 TRX
Cab choice dictates box length with the TRX. The crew cab is paired with a bed that measures 67 inches, and the quad cab is paired with a bed that measures 76 inches. The crew cab also features full-size rear access doors that function independently of the front doors whereas the quad cab has half-size rear doors. The TRX will have an aesthetic based on the style of the Rebel but will feature badging and other visual cues unique to it. You can also expect skip plates and other off-road-oriented enhancements.
Interior – 2021 Ram 1500 TRX in Amityville NY
Ram introduced the fifth generation of the 1500 with the 2019 model year, and one of the most compelling aspects of that redesign is that the automaker really pushed pickup cabs forward. You should expect nothing less from the TRX. Like the Rebel, the TRX will be available from Security Ram with either a crew cab or a quad cab. Both configurations provide seating for five due to front bucket seats and a rear bench seat. Spaciousness up front is the same. The big difference is that the crew cab offers a bit more rear headroom—39.8 vs 39.2 inches—and a lot more legroom—45.2 vs 35.6 inches.
Mechanical – 1500 TRX specs in Amityville
While the Rebel is available with rear-wheel drive despite being off-road-oriented, the TRX is expected to be exclusively four-wheel drive. Under the hood, the TRX will boast a supercharged 6.2-liter V8 engine. This powerplant is best known as the Hellcat engine, and it makes more than 700 horsepower—as much as 717 hp in current configurations—and 650 pound-feet of torque. The exact power output for the TRX, however, is still not known. You can currently get this engine with either an eight-speed automatic or six-speed manual transmission, and we expect that to be the case with the TRX as well. Payload capacity should be about 1,800 pounds, and towing capacity should be around 11,500 pounds.
Safety – Ram 1500 TRX in Amityville NY
Now that Uconnect 5 has arrived, we would expect that infotainment system in the TRX along with an 8.4-inch touchscreen, rearview camera, Android and Apple support, a GPS antenna input, Bluetooth capabilities and more. You will have the option of integrated navigation with the 8.4-inch screen or a 12.0-inch screen that has the nav features as well. Optional driver assists will include automatic high beams, adaptive cruise control, forward collision mitigation and lane keep assist.
