Militem Magnum 700 Revealed As Ram TRX Dripping In Italian Luxury

Militem, an Italian firm specializing in American cars, has revealed its latest project based on the Ram 1500 TRX.

It's called the Magnum 700, and while it's not the most powerful TRX out there, it's undoubtedly one of the most luxurious. As such, it loses all Ram badging to stand as its own creation. Before we get into the exterior and interior revisions, let's look at the mechanical changes that have occurred.

To start, the engineering department has improved the truck's driving dynamics by reinforcing the ladder frame chassis and fitting Bilstein Black Hawk E2 shock dampers, which enhances handling both on- and off-road. The standard adaptive suspension and 11.8-inch ride height have been retained.

The 6.2-liter supercharged V8 remains unchanged, with 702 horsepower and 650 lb-ft of torque. However, Militem Black Performance exhausts make for a more intoxicating V8 growl. If you want more power, you could always consider Hennessey's 1,012-horsepower Mammoth 1000 Last Stand.

Militem has made several styling changes to the Ram TRX. The Magnum 700 wears a bespoke roll bar with a retractable LED light bar. The front fascia also benefits from a two-tone grille with a hexagonal pattern, a more pronounced hood, and widebody fenders. Along with the side mirrors, these components can be trimmed with carbon fiber inserts. 22-inch forged Black Edition wheels also form part of the package.

Customers can choose from various colors and liveries for the bodywork, front grille, wheels, and brake calipers. The same level of personalization is available for the interior, where buyers can specify the color of the seats, upholstery stitching, steering wheel, and door panels.

Speaking of the cabin, the Magnum 700 has leather upholstery with Alcantara inserts, while the dashboard has been enlivened with carbon fiber. Carlex Design also offers high-end interior upgrades for the supertruck.

The bucket seats have embroidered '700' logos on the backrest and 'Militem' chrome plaques. Naturally, the seats are heated and cooled. The dashboard also features Alcantara trim, uplifting the cabin and creating a premium feel. Standard features include the 12-inch UConnect 5 infotainment
