In the class of full-size pickups, the 2022 RAM 1500 has consistently generated quite a buzz in the auto industry since its release. Its impressive performance and off-road capabilities make it the perfect solution for both work and play, while its comfortable cabin and state-of-the-art technology provide everything you need for everyday commutes and family road trips. With a long list of attractive features, we’ve chosen five found in this iconic pickup that you’re sure to love.
1. A Jaw-Dropping HEMI V8
Among the RAM 1500’s many exciting performance options, the 5.7L HEMI V8 engine has garnered the most praise from truck enthusiasts. This engine has integrated eTorque technology, which provides a few extra miles per gallon, and pushes out 395 horsepower with 410 pound-feet of torque. It also delivers a 12,750-pound maximum towing capacity, so you’ll have no problems hauling a heavy trailer or camper behind the vehicle on highways.
2. The Surround View Camera
While out on the trails or looking for places to park, the 360-degree Surround View Camera will certainly come in handy, as it projects a live video feed of your surroundings to the Uconnect infotainment system inside the truck. Plus, its Dynamic Centerline function provides on-screen visual guidance, so you can easily gauge which angle or direction is optimal when reversing into parking spots.
3. A 19-Speaker Audio System
If music is your passion, you’ll be amazed at the premium Harman Kardon audio system. In addition to offering 19 speakers, the most for any vehicle in the same class, it also comes with a powerful 900-watt amplifier, so you’ll always have enough power to entertain others while on the road or at tailgate parties.
4. Forward Collision Warning
To help mitigate the risk of collisions with vehicles on the road up ahead, the Forward Collision Warning feature monitors your path to ensure that there are never any obstacles in your way. This system works in tandem with Active Braking technology to warn you whenever there is a hazard in the road. If necessary, it can bring the vehicle to a stop if there’s not enough time for you to do so on your own.
5. A Digital Rearview Mirror
Inside the cabin, you can see what’s happening behind the vehicle without having to turn your head if you opt for the Digital Rearview Mirror. This innovative alternative to traditional rearview mirrors pairs with an integrated camera in the rear of the truck. This offers the advantage of being able to see things without passengers in the rear obstructing your view.
With exceptional technology, stunning engine performance, and a wide array of driver-assist safety features, this edition of the RAM 1500 has raised the bar for all other pickups.
