2023 Ram 1500 and Jeep Wrangler Land on Auto123.com Best Of List
Ram Truck has been a little busy as of late, releasing new editions for its most well-known models, the Ram 1500 Rebel and Ram 1500 TRX. The Ram Havoc Edition for the Rebel was released, previously available on the TRX, followed by the Special Lunar Editions for both, the Rebel and TRX models. Releasing a special edition now and then, Ram Truck is also known to win awards for its stellar performance. Just last week (late-May 2023), Auto123.com wrapped up its 2023 “best of” awards and named the 2023 Ram 1500 and 2023 Jeep® Wrangler on the list.
Who is Auto123.com? Since 1996, the business has been around and become one of the top bilingual resource centers for Canadians currently in the market for a new car. With 8,717 unique visitors a day, the website has a large outreach to our neighbors of the north. Most models they get, we get, so it’s a good rule of thumb that we can trust their judgement, even if models are chosen for their handling in various driving conditions, including snow. Well, that’s why the 2023 Ram 1500 and 2023 Jeep® Wrangler made the list. Both of these vehicles have been known to prove their off-road capability time and time again.
To make it to the list, models must be newly released or refreshed for the current model year (2023). Most automakers tend to release new year models during the autumn, so Auto123 waits to get its hands on everything new. Once the initial list is compiled, an expert panel made up of veteran contributors, test drivers, and Auto123.com content managers and editors comb through the list to vote on the best for each category. With a total of 22 categories this year, there was some hefty competition, but only the best and most noteworthy make it to the list. Making the list is one nice pat on the back, but a best of title for the respective category is an even higher honor.
The 2023 Ram 1500 was named the ‘Best Full-Size Pickup’ amongst full-size, light-duty trucks. This makes the fifth year in a row that Ram has nabbed this title. Providing the no-compromise benchmark for durability, technology, efficiency, performance, and convenience for truck buyers, the Ram 1500 features up a towing capability of 12,750 pounds and a payload capacity of 2,300 pounds.
“The Ram 1500 is often described as the most luxurious of the three big guys. It’s true that its interior is rich as can be and the smoothness of the ride is simply remarkable. Oh, and its towing capabilities are impressive, too.” – Editors at Auto123.com
