Ram 1500 Rebel TRX You know that a new vehicle is a highly anticipated one when everyone’s talking about what you can expect from the ride. That’s exactly the case with the 2021 Ram Rebel TRX, a truck that was first introduced at a concept show in 2016. Here are some speculations we hope are true about this pickup truck that will only amplify how excited we are to drive one.

Adjustable Suspension Steering

Ram trucks are known for their excellent handling, and rightfully so. The suspension found on these pickup trucks gives you power on the road and the ability to keep yourself and your passengers safe. With a strong suspension, your wheels remain where they belong — on the road — so you can navigate over nearly any terrain. Rumored to appear on the 2021 Ram Rebel TRX is adjustable suspension steering, which adds an extra element of control to your drive.

Although it’s currently unknown if this pickup truck will have its tried-and-true air suspension model or opt for a more electric system, a drive mode selector will be the base of its adjustable suspension. Now you’ll be able to adjust important vehicle features, such as the throttle, stability, shift points, among other options.

A Rugged Exterior

The Rebel TRX is rumored to have an aggressive look on the road, with dual exhaust tips that are blacked out for a powerful look, tow hooks, LED brake lights, a large hood with marker lights embedded into it, and impressively large 37-inch tires. The proposed front grille and width of the truck will make it a force to be reckoned with.

Powerful Engine Options

The Ram 1500 was first introduced in 1993, so this new launch marks nearly 30 years of greatness with these pickups. The performance on 1500 trucks is always impressive, but experts are anticipating that the TRX will be Ram’s most powerful pickup yet from the 1500 line. The Hellcat engine, previously used in the Dodge Challenger, is a 6.2L supercharged V-8 HEMI that generates 575 horsepower, and rumors say that the new TRX will have the same.

There are other speculations that the TRX won’t have the same engine as the 2016 concept. Instead, it’s believed that the TRX will offer up an 8HP90 automatic transmission that generates 707 horsepower. Only time will tell which option will be standard or if there will be an available option for drivers who want the most amount of power they can have.

Off-Roading Ability

The off-roading ability on the 2021 Ram Rebel TRX is expected to be pretty solid, with selectable modes to choose from, including mud, snow, and sand, as well as a locking differential so you can experience optimum control over how your truck handles the terrain. The rear locker allows for both wheels to become locked together so they can also turn in unison, making for expert steering with any level of available traction.

Ever since car enthusiasts got a glimpse of the 2021 Ram Rebel TRX concept, anticipation continues at a new high every year. It may not have an actual launch date yet, but when it arrives, we cannot wait to welcome it to our inventory.
