Ram Truck was named winner of Popular Science magazine’s 2020 Best of What’s New award in the Auto category.
Each year, Popular Science reviews thousands of new products and innovations and chooses the top 100 winners across 11 categories.
To win, a product or technology must represent a significant step forward in its category.
“The Ram 2500 Heavy Duty is among the Best of What's New because its unique blend of tech makes it tough yet sophisticated,” said Joe Brown, Editor-in-Chief of Popular Science. “That's a tough balance to strike, especially in a field crowded with so much innovation.”
For 2020, Ram Heavy Duty offers a towing capacity of 35,100 pounds and a payload capacity of 7,680 pounds. The Ram Heavy Duty also sets benchmarks in comfort, luxury materials, innovation, and technology extending well past any competitive offerings. Driving it all, the pickup segments first 1,000 lb.-ft. of torque engine; the Cummins I-6 Turbo Diesel.
Ram Truck customers with the Uconnect 12-inch touchscreen also enjoy another industry-first feature in SiriusXM’s new “Personalized Stations Powered by Pandora,” which deliver a combination of rich music curation and industry-leading personalization not found in any other audio entertainment service.
