2002 Dodge Ram

Stunning Design and a Host of Innovative Features Put All-New 2002 Dodge Ram 1500 at the Head of the Truck Class

Just like its predecessor, the all-new 2002 Dodge Ram 1500 bursts onto the truck scene with a bold new look and a stunning package of attributes that sets it apart from the rest of the pack. In addition to a design that amplifies the now-famous Ram look, the 2002 Dodge Ram 1500 also offers two new Magnum® engines, a new automatic transmission, and a host of customer convenience features.

An all-new Quad Cab™ model boasts four standard doors, while regular- and extended-cab models are considerably larger than their predecessors, putting the Ram family once again at the head of its class. It also signals the start of a Dodge Ram renaissance, as all-new versions of the heavy-duty 2500 and 3500 models will follow for the 2003 model year.

“We created a phenomenon eight years ago with the 1994 Ram, when we introduced the now-famous ‘big rig’ styling along with the best total package of features in the full-size market,” said Jim Julow, Vice President - Dodge Division Global Brand Center, DaimlerChrysler Corporation. “With the all-new 1500, we amplified the ‘Ram Package’ in every conceivable way, making it more comfortable, roomier, quieter and more user-friendly. We did all this while improving power and capability, two hallmarks since its distinctive redesign eight years ago.”

ALL-NEW DESIGN TAKES “THE RAM PACKAGE” ONE STEP FURTHER...
In designing the Dodge Ram, no part of the truck was left untouched, from its signature exterior design to its best-in-class interior packaging or powertrain. The result is a new truck from top to bottom, that is more fuel efficient, quieter, handles better and delivers even more comfort and convenience. The new Ram’s features are plentiful:

• A bold, new exterior design that amplifies the signature brawny look, while refining it for reduced wind noise and improved cooling and aerodynamics
• Two new next-generation Magnum engines that are more powerful and fuel efficient than the engines they replace
• A new 45RFE automatic transmission that is smoother and more responsive
• Redesigned Regular Cab and Quad Cab interiors that are even larger and more luxurious
• New body architecture featuring a hydroformed front structure
• An ingenious rear storage and seating system in the Quad Cab that serves work and passenger-carrying capability equally
• A totally redesigned chassis and suspension that optimizes ride quality, quietness, towing capability and durability
• The largest brakes in the class
