Although there are powertrain updates for 2012 Ram light and heavy-duty pickups, the only visible difference compared to 2009-2011 models is this redesigned steering wheel.
The new steering wheel includes integrated cruise control buttons, which were previously mounted on a steering column stalk. They join the trip computer and UConnect phone controls used to check vehicle performance and manage hands free Bluetooth calls. Audio volume buttons are still mounted on the backside of the wheel.
