With the release of the 2021 1500 Ram offers drivers exceptional power - delivering an available 6.2L HEMI V8 engine that generates 702 HP and 650 lb.-ft of torque. This suite promises potent strength (8,100 pounds of trailering) and high-speed capabilities (0 to 60 MPH in a mere 4.5 seconds). It also, however, produces a mighty noise; and this can undermine the highway experience.
To ensure that Alberta drivers won’t hear every rev of the 1500’s V8 engine, Ram has fused it with exclusive noise dampening technology. How does this work? Let’s examine the system!
At the front of the new 1500 is a windshield made from acoustic safety glass - which helps to lessen overall vibrations and limit exposure. A sculpted hood further reduces ambient elements by sluicing away air currents; and, inside, an Active Noise Cancellation system maintains an ideal atmosphere by utilizing strategically placed microphones. These tools broadcast competitive sound waves, helping to counter any unwanted distractions (such as an engine rumble); and they allow riders to experience a more pleasant cabin.
By employing these technologies the new Ram 1500 can effortlessly counter exterior noise and enable drivers to focus on V8 fun.
