2022 RAM 1500

The 2022 Ram 1500 has seven primary trim levels for you to choose from: Tradesman, Big Horn, Laramie, Rebel, Limited Longhorn, Limited, and TRX. Most of these have body style options: either a Crew Cab with a 5-foot-7-inch or 6-foot-4-inch box or a Quad Cab with a 6-foot-4-inch box. Several limited special editions are also available. The Ram 1500's wheel sizes range from 18 to 22 inches. In addition, you can upgrade your box with a lockable storage container in the box wall that doubles as a cooler, an in-bed household-style power outlet, and a multifunction tailgate.

You have several engine options with the 2022 Ram 1500, starting with a 3.6-liter Pentastar V-6 engine that offers 305 horsepower and 269 pound-feet of torque. Next is a 5.7-liter HEMI V-8 that creates 395 horsepower and 410 pound-feet of torque that comes with or without the eTorque mild hybrid system. The TRX comes equipped with a supercharged 6.2-liter HEMI V-8 engine that delivers 702 horsepower and 650 pound-feet of torque. The 3.0-liter EcoDiesel V-6 outputs 260 horsepower and 480 pound-feet of torque.

All of these engines are connected to an eight-speed automatic transmission.

The new Ram 1500 can tow up to 12,750 pounds with the HEMI V-8 engine. If you see yourself hauling more supplies in the box than towing, you can outfit your truck to handle up to 2,300 pounds of payload. The Ram 1500 can be loaded with features to make your towing jobs easier, including a trailer reverse steering control system that helps you steer your rig as you back it up. In addition, if you want non-stop thrills, look to the TRX for an array of off-roading features. Another great feature worth exploring is the adjustable air suspension system.

The Ram 1500 is one of the most luxurious trucks when choosing the leather-bound Limited or Southwest-style Limited Longhorn. The Crew Cab body style gives you best-in-class rear legroom and rear seats that recline for ultimate comfort. Stash your gear in the in-floor storage bin or fold the rear seats forward for flat loading space. Finally, get a full tech loadout with the Laramie, which comes equipped with an 8.4-inch touch screen with Android Auto and Apple CarPlay compatibility, a better nine-speaker sound system, a Wi-Fi hot spot, and more.

The 2022 Ram 1500 offers many standard and safety features, including smart driver-assist technologies. Opt for the available blind-spot monitoring system if you've ever been nervous about changing lanes in your truck. Also available are weather-ready control systems, such as electronic stability control, trailer sway control, hill start assist, and more.
