2022 RAM 1500

Truck buyers are the perfect customers in a lot of ways. They often know exactly what they want and have little tolerance for gimmicks that won’t help them get their jobs done. It’s probably not a coincidence that the Ram 1500 has been named Truck of the Year for the last three consecutive years because it easily fits inside of that framework. The 2022 Ram 1500 is in a strong position to make it four in a row with its widely available upgraded connectivity technology, strong fuel economy scores, and quiet interior environment.

Finch Chrysler product experts are ready to help you pick out your 2022 Ram 1500, today.

Exterior Features

Aerodynamic Engineering

Pickup trucks used to have a bad reputation when it comes to fuel efficiency. Modern trucks, especially the 2022 Ram 1500, have largely left that legacy behind. Certainly engine technology helps make a truck more efficient, but it’s not the only factor. The latest member of the Ram truck family employs cutting-edge aerodynamic elements, like an active air dam and air suspension, to help the truck more efficiently slice through the air travelling over the truck’s exterior.

Robust and Lightweight Frame

A truck’s capability is more than just horsepower and towing capacity. It starts with the very foundation it’s built upon. The steel frame used by the 2022 Ram 1500 is designed for maximum rigidity and durability. It is also lighter than previously employed truck frames. Additionally, the suspension system also weighs less and it’s specifically tuned to provide better control while towing or hauling heavy loads.

Convenient Cargo Access

It really doesn’t matter if a truck’s cargo bed can haul a lot of gear if it’s impossible to access. The 60/40 split tailgate makes it almost infinitely easier for people to get in and out of the cargo bed as needed. Access to cargo is further helped by a centre-mounted bed step. Owners can also open and close the tailgate in a more traditional configuration if they wish.

Special Ram 1500 Appearance Packages

Finch Chrysler understands that you want your truck to be a reflection of who you are as an individual. Ram has introduced a trio of special appearance packages that will let owners outfit their 2022 Ram 1500 trucks in new and interesting ways.

Grand Touring Crew Cab — Trucks typically don’t get a GT label. Ram has taken the Grand Touring concept and applied it to one of the most capable trucks on the market. Owners of Sport, Rebel, and Laramie trims can add the GT package with several unique features, including cold air intake, performance exhaust, GT logos on the bucket seats and paddle shifters.

Back Country — Not everything a truck does happens on the road. Sometimes, drivers need to leave the pavement and tackle rough terrain. Finch Chrysler customers can add the Back Country package to Big Horn trims. This package will give them bucket seats, 18-inch wheels wrapped in off-road tires, Off-Road Group and Bed Utility Group.

10th Anniversary — Luxury and capability are mutually exclusive concepts. The 2022 Ram 1500 10th Anniversary package takes the refinement offered by the Limited trim grade and adds to it. Customers will get an exclusive Blue Shade paint scheme, complementary Indigo/Sea Salt Quilted leather interior, metal pedal kit and multi-function tailgate.

Canada-Exclusive Ram 1500 Sport

Ram is paying extra attention to Canadian buyers. The 2022 Ram 1500 Sport will only be available in this country with its exclusive monochromatic exterior, LED headlights, and heated front seats. On the outside, the 2022 Ram 1500 Sport is equipped with body colour-matching door handles, grille surround and front fascia parts, as well as all-black badges. Additionally, the interior is similarly monochromatic and drivers will have access to the manufacturer’s latest technology.

Meet the Ram 1500 TRX

How does one of the best pickup trucks ever produced have more to offer? Ram introduced the TRX platform a few years ago and it is built to simply out perform anything in the segment. Not only is it powered by a supercharged V-8 HEMI® engine, but it can accelerate to highway speeds in under five seconds while hitting a top (track-only) speed of 190 km/h.

Interior Features

Genuine Luxury Accents

There are a lot of options to consider when outfitting a 2022 Ram 1500. Among the most important considerations a Finch Chrysler customer needs to make is how the interior will look. Genuine leather and wood accents can be found on some of the upper trims that will firmly place the 2022 Ram 1500 in the luxury segment of the pickup truck class. Additionally, the legroom found in the truck’s rear seat is reportedly best-in-class.

Available Power Sunroof

It would be a disservice for drivers and passengers to take the 2022 Ram 1500 to new places and not be able to see everything. Crew cab models can come with a dual-pane power that can be fully opened by the single press of a button. In addition to letting passengers see more of the outside world, it’s also a great way to enhance the cabin’s ventilation.

Reclining Second Row

You already know that the 2022 Ram 1500 offers the most rear legroom in its class. However, the rear passengers in the latest Ram 1500 might have a strong claim for being the most comfortable in the class as well. The 2022 version of the Ram 1500 offers the first reclining rear seats — that can be heated and ventilated as well.

Convenient Storage Options

People carry a lot of things on them every day. The interior of a truck can become quickly cluttered if there aren’t convenient storage options to keep those things organized. Available options include a large and reconfigurable centre console that can hold a lot, including laptops measuring up to 15-inches. Also, the automaker has included several USB ports for charging devices in the centre console.

Performance

Towing & Hauling Potential

It’s very clear that the 2022 Ram 1500 is a high-performing full-size pickup truck. However, most people are going to be more interested in what they can do with all of that power. A properly equipped 2022 Ram 1500 will be able to tow up ot 5,783 kg (12,750 lbs.) and haul 1,043 kg (2,300 lbs.) in the cargo bed. The cargo box has more than 1,500 litres (53.7 cu.-ft.) of volume.

Electric Acceleration Assist

The 3.6-litre, V-6 and 5.7-litre, V-8 HEMI® V-8 engines can be equipped with the eTorque mild hybrid system. Drivers will automatically engage the eTorque system simply by pressing the gas pedal while pulling or hauling heavy loads. The system can add up to an additional 130 pound-feet of torque.

Fuel Economy

The 2022 Ram 1500 proves that its owners don’t need to sacrifice performance and capability for fuel economy. Finch Chrysler customers looking to get the most efficient version of the truck can choose one with the V-6 power plant with variable valve timing. It will return up to 11.8 L/100 km and as much as 9.4 L/100 km.

Technology

Uconnect 5 Connectivity

Regardless of how people intend to use their 2022 Ram 1500, they will always be able to remain connected to the world outside of the truck’s passenger cabin. The latest Ram 1500 is broadly equipped with the Uconnect 5 infotainment system. It is faster, offers three times more memory and the associated touchscreen has three times better resolution. Additionally, up to five individual user profiles can be created to accommodate five different drivers.

Premium Sound System

Nothing quite sets the mood for a road trip like picking the right music. The 2022 Ram 1500 is the only full-size pickup truck in its class with an available Harman Kardon® Surround Sound system. Up to 900 watts of sound will come from 19 speakers and a 10-inch subwoofer.

Quiet Interior Experience

Sometimes after a long day, there is nothing better than driving home in silence. Ram engineers have used special features, like acoustic safety glass and a specially sculpted hood to assist the active noise cancellation system to keep the interior as quiet as possible.

Advanced Driver Assistance

The best way to stay safe in a car accident is to avoid them in the first place. The 2022 Ram 1500 can be equipped with the Technology Group package to improve the driver’s situational awareness. Some of the features included with the package include an auto-dimming digital rearview mirror and a heads-up display.

Safety

Parking & Towing Assistance

The 360° Surround View camera system creates a synthetic picture of the area around the 2022 Ram 1500. This top-down look at the truck and nearby obstructions will help drivers park in tight spots as well as help them hook up to a trailer hitch.

Adaptive Cruise Control

Travelling at highway speeds requires keeping a safe distance from traffic. Ram’s Adaptive Cruise Control system allows the driver to set the distance they want to hold and the system will automatically adjust the truck’s speed to maintain that distance.

2021 Ram 1500 Model Changes

Coming off three consecutive Truck of the Year awards, Ram is likely among the industry favourites to win it for the current model year. The most notable upgrade for the 2022 Ram 1500 is its broadly available Uconnect 5 infotainment system. Users will be able to stay connected to the outside world while they’re on the road. Additionally, Ram is offering two new appearance packages, the Backcountry and 10th Anniversary Edition. Finch Chrysler customers can also order the Canadian-exclusive Sport version.
