The vehicle is available exclusively in Crew Cab configuration with short bed and 4×4 drivetrain. The interior offers space for up to six people thanks to the front bench seat, with the practicality of the fold-down center console and numerous hidden storage compartments.
The design follows the Warlock philosophy with muscular lines, glossy black front grille with the RAM logo clearly visible, 18-inch black-painted alloy wheels, LED headlights, and total black details. Among the options, dedicated Warlock decals for the hood and sides stand out.
Inside, the Warlock offers an essential but complete environment, with a Uconnect 5 multimedia system with 8.4-inch touchscreen, 7-inch display for the driver, black cloth seats, and leather steering wheel. On the technology front, driving assistance systems are not lacking, such as adaptive cruise control, lane keeping, blind spot monitoring, and hill descent management with Selec-Speed.
