2020 Ram Heavy Duty truck joins dark theme trend with limited black edition

Fiat Chrysler's Ram Truck has announced a new 2020 Heavy Duty Limited Black edition for the US market. Joining the ongoing trend of dark theme models, Ram's limited black edition offers a sophisticated, monochromatic appearance package that claims to appeal to a significant segment of luxury truck buyers.

The exterior of the new truck gets black accents, matte black badging and black aluminium wheels. Further, the black theme extends to the grille, door handles, side-view trailer tow mirrors, tow hooks, headlight and taillight bezels.
