Claimed to be the quickest, fastest, and most powerful mass-produced truck in the world, the Ram 1500 TRX is powered by a 6.2-litre supercharged Hemi V8 engine that puts out 702 horsepower (692bhp) and 650 lb.-ft. of torque. It goes from 0-60mph in 4.5 seconds; 0-100 mph in 10.5 seconds and dispatches the quarter mile in 12.9 seconds at 108 mph. The top speed of the truck is 118 mph. Image Credit: Supplied

The aggressive front fascia is anchored by the R-A-M badge with flow-through lettering, with the functional bonnet adding to the muscular looks while being responsible for 50 per cent of air entering the V8 engine. The remaining 50 per cent obviously enters through the front grille. Image Credit: Supplied

The new front and rear 2.5-inch Bilstein Black Hawk e2 adaptive performance shocks have been designed exclusively for the TRX. Apparently these shocks provide fast reaction time, better damping and improved heat dissipation while tackling harsh terrain at speeds greater than 100 mph. Image Credit: Supplied
