RAM Unveils A Limited-Run 1500 TRX

Only 4,000 units will be made.

The current-gen RAM 1500 TRX will go out of production by the end of the year. Before that happens, however, the American automaker wants to conclude with a celebratory derivative. Enter the RAM 1500 TRX 6.2L Supercharged V8 – Final Edition. It is being introduced as the 2024 model, production of which will be limited to 4,000 units worldwide.

So, what’s special here? The limited-run model offers more customisation options than ever while packing more equipment as standard. The ‘Final Edition’ is available in eight exterior colours, including three unique ones – Delmonico Red, Night Edge Blue and Harvest Sunrise. In addition, the bead-lock capable wheels are finished in Satin Titanium and, in the same shade, are the 6.2-litre hood badge and the bed decal.

Indoors, the specially conceived variant boasts Patina stitching on the seats and dashboard while flaunting an embroidered “TRX” seatback logo and a dedicated cluster splash screen. The truck also features 4×4 weave matte carbon fibre on the instrument panel, doors, console and steering wheel. Rounding off the specialness are door panel inserts in Triaxle-suede, a Satin Titanium TRX dashboard badge in front of the passenger and the build number on a centre console-mounted badge.

No points for guessing what’s under the bonnet. It’s a 6.2-litre supercharged Hemi V8 outputing 702hp and 881Nm of peak torque. With that grunt, the truck can hit 96kmph from a standstill in 4.5 seconds. Flat out, it can clock 190kmph.

As mentioned above, the Final Edition of the RAM 1500 TRX also packs a richer list of standard equipment. It includes a 19-speaker Harman Kardon sound system, a head-up display, a digital rear-view mirror, 8-way powered front seats, adaptive cruise control, Lane Keep Assist, pedestrian emergency braking, Blind Spot and Cross-Path detection and front and rear parking sensors.

RAM confirms that the 1500 TRX Final Edition will be up for grabs in Q4 2023.

New-Gen Bentley Continental GT Debuts Next Month

It’s been only a few days since Bentley confirmed a few juicy details about what will replace its iconic W12. The Brits have now confirmed the new powertrain’s first project – the fourth-generation Bentley Continental GT. And it isn’t far from shedding its cover, as you can see here. In fact, we’ll get to see it in full next month.

As you’d expect, not much has been unveiled as of now. But we know the “Ultra Performance Hybrid” powerplant will deliver a whopping 782ps of power and a mammoth peak torque of 1,000Nm. Courtesy of the electric motor and a battery to back it up, the new-gen Continental GT will also be capable of travelling 80km with zero local emissions. Another astonishing figure for the brand is a WLTP-certified CO2 figure of less than 50 g/km.

Backing up the new powertrain and its massive power reserves will be an active all-wheel-drive system with torque vectoring, four-wheel steering, an electronic limited-slip differential, 48V electric active anti-roll control and new dual-valve dampers. Of course, new design and a variety of modern-day creature comforts will also play their part. Put all those facts together, and the takeaway is this: the new-gen Bentley Continental GT will be the most powerful, dynamically capable and sustainable luxury grand tourer in the company’s history.

Exciting times ahead!
