2022 Ram 1500 TRX 0-to-60 time

If you think pickup trucks are sluggish and are only best at being work vehicles. Think again. The 2022 Ram 1500 TRX is not just another pickup truck. It is the “T-Rex of the pickup of the trucking world” and by far the quickest, fastest, most powerful pickup truck and the most powerful production street-legal half-ton pickup ever made. But exactly how powerful and fast is the “T-Rex of the pickup truck world”? In this blog from Lum’s Auto Center in Warrenton, OR, let’s find out just that.



What Powers the 2022 Ram 1500?

The 2022 Ram TRX doesn’t make tall claims. It also lives up to those. Under the hood of this off-road pickup truck is the most powerful engine ever put in a pickup truck – the Supercharged 6.2L HEMI® V8. This supercharged behemoth with an intercooled twin-screw supercharger offers more than just a mean whine. It makes an astounding 702 horsepower @ 6,100 rpm and earth-shattering 650 pound-feet of near-instantaneous torque for an off-the-line jolt of power that you’ll want to experience repeatedly.

With all this power at its helm, the 2022 Ram 1500 TRX can launch from a standstill to 60 mph in a matter of just 4.5 seconds.

That’s not all. Because it is a 2022 Ram 1500 at its core, the TRX has enough towing capacity to tow up to 8,100 pounds and take a payload as heavy as 1,310 pounds on its back.
