Don’t Worry About the 702-HP Ram TRX Ignition Edition Being Too Subtle
If you thought the Plain Jane Ram TRX was boring, you’ll be happy to hear it now comes in orange.
If you were considering the purchase of a supercharged Ram TRX but didn't think the color choices were rowdy enough, you may want to look at the 2022 Ram 1500 TRX Ignition Edition that was just revealed at the State Fair of Texas. The Ignition Edition paints Ram's Hellcat-powered truck orange and gives it exclusive decals but is limited to just 875 units. For reference, the only non-shade colors available on the regular TRX are red and blue, and those really aren't enough to get you noticed on the internet.
Equipped with the Level 2 equipment pack that typically adds $7,920 to the regular TRX, the Ignition Edition features black, 18-inch wheels, a panoramic sunroof, a spray-in bed liner, cargo tie-downs, a bed step, and a cab-mounted LED brake light. On the inside, Ram has laced in a whole lot of orange including orange stitching, copper carbon trim, and an orange badge on the center console, as well as orange Ram logos on the floor mats. Heads-up display and pedestrian emergency braking are also standard equipment on the special edition TRX, which is definitely helpful since it sits high on 35-inch tires from the factory.
There aren't any wild performance upgrades to the TRX Ignition Edition—not that it needs any. Powered by the same 6.2-liter supercharged Hemi V8 found in SRT's Hellcat products, it makes 702 horsepower and 650 pound-feet of torque.
The very orange 2022 Ram 1500 TRX Ignition Edition will start at $93,280 after destination and go on sale in the final quarter of 2021. It'll be on display at the State Fair of Texas from Friday, Sept. 24 to Oct. 17 alongside two other new, special edition Rams: the luxurious 1500 Longhorn SouthFork and Ram (RED) Edition.
