Mike Gillam, TRX exterior designer, talks about working on the original TRX concept and how it helped influence the all-new 2021 Ram 1500 TRX production vehicle.Launch Control is standard with the 2021 Ram TRX and manages tire slip while launching the vehicle to give the driver consistent straight-line acceleration. Wheel speed sensors watch for driveline-damaging wheel hop at launch and, in milliseconds, provide inputs to the powertrain control module to modify the engine torque to regain full grip. The Ram TRX is also equipped with Jump Detection, which uses wheel-speed and ride-height sensors and accelerometers at each corner to identify when the vehicle is airborne and acts to prevent driveline-damaging power spikes. Acting in milliseconds, Jump Detection modifies engine speed and torque, gear selection, transfer case torque split, damping rates and other powertrain and suspension components through the landing to deliver optimum performance.
Dan Stagner, TRX vehicle integration manager, discusses the durability testing that the all-new 2021 Ram 1500 TRX endured to help exceed customer demands.
