Inside the new 2023 Ram 1500 are some of the most advanced tech features ever included in a pickup truck. These amazing features are just one reason why the 2023 Ram 1500 is one of the best trucks on the market. Below, we’ll outline just a few of the features you can get with the new Ram 1500.
Digital Display Cluster
The first tech feature to discuss is the digital display cluster. This is a screen located directly behind the steering wheel, within your line of sight as you’re driving. Through this digital gauge display, you can access several features and information about your vehicle, including:
Built-in Navigation
In the digital display cluster, you can set up turn-by-turn navigation. You’ll see a digital representation of the road you’re on, along with when you need to turn, how much traffic to expect, and what time you should arrive. You can also see the upcoming turns you’ll need to make in advance so that you can prepare for them ahead of time. By providing turn-by-turn navigation right in front of you, you can keep your eyes closer to the road and make sure you don’t miss your next turn.
Fuel Efficiency
With just the push of a button, you can display your vehicle’s current fuel efficiency inside the digital gauge cluster. You can see how many more miles you have until your tank is empty, along with how many miles you get per gallon on average. This helps to ensure you don’t run out of gas while you’re driving as well as helping you to make sure you’re still receiving the same great fuel efficiency and that there are no issues with the vehicle.
Vehicle Information
Finally, the digital display cluster can provide a wide range of information about your Ram 1500. Some of the information you can learn is the temperature of the transmission, the current battery voltage, the temperature of your coolant, your current speed, the temperature outside, and even your steering angle. The more information you have at your disposal, the better decisions you can make about your vehicle. The digital display cluster gives you lots of the information you need while you’re driving.
Head-Up Display
Another display you can add to your 2023 Ram 1500 is a head-up display. With this feature, you’ll see vital information projected directly onto the windshield in your line of sight. You can see things like your current speed or if you’re receiving a phone call. Now you don’t need to take your eyes off the road to read important information, helping to keep you safe while you drive.
Digital Rearview Mirror
Another available feature for the 2023 Ram 1500 is a digital rearview mirror. With this upgrade, you’ll have an LCD monitor as your rearview mirror, which offers a real-time video stream from a camera placed in the rear of your vehicle. This gives you an excellent and clear view of what’s behind your truck. You’ll be glad you have this upgrade when you’re navigating through traffic or attempting to back your truck into a tight space.
12-Inch Touchscreen Infotainment Center
Another big feature of the 2023 Ram 1500 is the infotainment system. The standard option is an 8.2-inch screen, but you can upgrade this to a large 12-inch option. Whichever option you go with, the infotainment system makes it easy to control your favorite media sources and see other useful information as you drive. The Ram 1500 comes with both Apple CarPlay and Android Auto integrations, allowing you to quickly connect your mobile device. You can also load up a map of the area and find points of interest near you.
Ram App
The Ram app, available for both Android and Apple devices, gives even more functionality to your Ram truck. Through the available Ram Connect Services, you can do things like send destinations from your phone to your truck’s NAV system, start your vehicle remotely, locate your truck, and even unlock your doors. You can also see reports about your truck so that you can stay on top of maintenance and keep your truck in great shape.
Voice Commands
Voice commands are another great feature of the 2023 Ram 1500. To use voice commands, you can either press a button on your steering wheel or establish a “wake up” word, which your truck will listen for. Once you activate the voice command system, you can then perform functions like tuning the radio, taking or initiating calls, responding to text messages, changing your media source, and more.
Internet and Charging Stations
The Ram 1500 also makes it easy to keep your other devices charged and connected to the internet. The 2023 Ram 1500 comes with a power station, where you can charge phones, tablets, and more while you’re out. It also has a Wi-Fi hotspot, ensuring that you have a stable internet connection for sending emails, streaming videos, and checking social media.
Key Fob Functions
The 2023 Ram 1500 also adds more functionality to the key fob. From your keychain, you can now do things like lower the truck bed, drop the tailgate, and start the vehicle. The key fob also detects when you’re within the vicinity of your vehicle and lets you enter and start the vehicle once you’re close. This keyless entry adds a touch of convenience while also increasing the security of your Ram 1500.
