U.S. Company Announces New ‘End of the World’ Pickup That Delivers 850 Horsepower and Kevlar Armor. Costing R$ 1.5 Million, Modified Model Is a RAM 1500 TRX.

A new pickup that came off the production line as a regular Ram 1500 TRX has been modified with a six-wheel layout, Kevlar-covered body, and now delivers 850 horsepower to match its fierce appearance. Dubbed the ‘end of the world’ pickup, this modification has been catching the attention of enthusiasts in the U.S.

The ‘End of the World’ Pickup Can Reach Speeds of Up to 228 km/h

The result of this modification is the Apocalypse Juggernaut 6×6. The “tuned” model goes from 0 to 100 km/h in just 4.5 seconds, reaches speeds of up to 228 km/h, and features an eight-speed automatic transmission. The new U.S. ‘end of the world’ pickup also uses black Kevlar armor and custom body panels. The Kevlar is designed to deflect rocks, dirt, and all types of projectiles commonly encountered on highways.

An elevation kit has also raised the vehicle further off the ground and prepared it to tackle any type of terrain. The six-wheel monster also comes with a washable interior, ready for adverse weather conditions, as well as a 12-inch infotainment screen.

What a RAM 1500 TRX Looks Like Without Modifications

Without the modifications that turned it into a new ‘end of the world’ pickup, the RAM 1500 TRX continues to impress with its power and bold design. Although it has been discontinued and was never officially sold in Brazil, some units were brought in for testing, showcasing the potential and luxury that this vehicle offers.

With a look reminiscent of a dinosaur’s strength, the 1500 TRX boasts robust features, setting a standard in the full-size pickup category. Despite its imposing stature, measuring 5.92 meters in length and 2.24 meters in width, the truck impresses with its specifications and presence.

Apocalypse Pickups Are Becoming Popular

Apocalypse Manufacturing decided that the Land Rover Defender, on its own, was not good enough for the end of the world and required some improvements. Now, the new ‘end of the world’ pickup has gained another pair of wheels, transforming the standard Defender into an incredible 6×6, whose name has become World Ender. In fact, this is the specialty of Apocalypse.

Besides the Land Rover, the modifier also has versions of this type for other vehicles, such as the Jeep Wrangler and Gladiator, along with “post-apocalyptic” modifications of the Ford Bronco, Rivian R1T, and others.

In the V8 of the Land Rover Defender, the company has not changed anything; it is the same 5.0 gasoline engine with 525 hp and 63.7 kgfm torque. What changed was its exhaust outlet, moved from the rear to the side. The military wheels are 20 inches and are equally extravagant, but not as much as the giant 38-inch tires with a quiet central tread, which promise to reduce road noise.

With billions in loans, China is rebuilding Nigeria’s railway network from scratch, abandoning the British colonial tracks that have turned to scrap and creating a corridor of over 1,300 km to take the load off the roads of Africa’s largest economy.

Forget petroleum-based asphalt: a Scottish company transforms 684,000 plastic bottles into one kilometer of road that is 60% more resistant and up to 10 times more durable, and the technology has already started replacing traditional asphalt in more than 30 countries.

Austrian engineers have developed an inflatable concrete technology that transforms flat slabs into domes using only air pressure, eliminating scaffolding and temporary forms, and potentially changing the way bridges, tunnels, and curved roofs are constructed worldwide.

Australia prepares to dredge 96.5 million m³ in Moreton Bay to deepen, widen, and realign channels of the Port of Brisbane, in a project of up to 25 years designed to accommodate larger ships and enhance maritime safety and regional port efficiency.

A robot named Walter does the work of five bricklayers per hour and can save the construction industry, where the average age of professionals is 46 years and almost no one wants to learn the trade anymore, in the United Kingdom.

Cristiano Ronaldo builds a billion-dollar mansion in Portugal with 54,000 square feet, a 3-acre plot facing the Atlantic, private spa, indoor and outdoor pools, and an estimated value of an impressive R$ 385 million.

A 100 m² house can jump from R$ 220,000 to over R$ 750,000 just due to the standard of finish, while invisible choices in the plan turn the dream of construction into a difficult-to-predict expense.

Tiny robots inspired by ants can build and demolish structures on their own in a Harvard experiment.

Mansion basement becomes archaeological site: engravings possibly made by enslaved people are found in a property over 260 years old in Ouro Preto

Fiat Uno 2004 becomes an artisanal “mini Renegade,” gains SUV parts, digital dashboard, head-up display, and even makes modern cars look basic.

A 13-meter marine predator, larger than two articulated buses, spent decades in Texas museum collections right under the noses of paleontologists: now named Tylosaurus rex, it had serrated teeth capable of crushing skulls and dominated the oceans of North America 80 million years ago.
