Ram Truck Brand Wins MotorTrend Truck of the Year for Third Consecutive Year

As the ol’ saying goes, “Good things come in threes.” For the Ram Truck Brand, that’s definitely true, based on the announcement that a Ram has been awarded MotorTrend’s Truck of the Year for the third year in a row this year, with editors being dazzled by the look, comfort, and performance of the 702-horsepower 2021 Ram 1500 TRX.

THREE-PEAT

MotorTrend’s “Of the Year” award is one of the most prestigious automotive industry honors, recognizing vehicles that represent the best value, superiority in their classes and a genuine impact on the automotive scene. Overall, Ram has picked up the distinguished MotorTrend Truck of the Year honor six times in its 11 years as a standalone brand. Now the Ram brand celebrates the third consecutive MotorTrend Truck of the Year award, following up Truck of the Year wins by the redesigned 2019 Ram 1500, followed by the 2020 Ram Heavy Duty.

RAM 1500 TRX

You can see why this year’s award goes to the 2021 Ram 1500 TRX. Like Mike Koval Jr., Head of Ram Brand stated: “The all-new 2021 Ram 1500 TRX sets the benchmark for extreme performance pickup trucks and clearly telegraphs the Ram Truck brand’s leadership in the segment.” Those are not just words, but the ironclad truth. The new Ram 1500 TRX packs the supercharged 6.2-liter V8 engine producing 702 horsepower and 650 lb-ft of torque, which makes it the highest horsepower production pickup in history. To handle that horsepower, the new TRX is the first Ram truck equipped with Launch
Control with Launch Assist, which regulates engine RPM and monitors wheel slip feedback in order to achieve the fastest possible acceleration rate. Plus, you are surrounded by the latest high-tech features, like the integrated switch bank that features up to six auxiliary buttons ready to be wired to driving lights, axillary items, and more. There is also the Heads-Up Display that serves as your virtual information hub on the windshield, projecting an array of customizable vehicle readouts.

It doesn’t take lucky charms to create an outstanding and class-leading pickup. For years, Ram has raised the bar on design and engineering by design by listening to their customers. The result this year is a high-performance machine like no other: the new 2021 Ram 1500 TRX. We at McLarty Daniel Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram Fiat are ecstatic about Ram’s Three-Peat win from MotorTrend, and proud to offer quality Ram pickups on our lot.
