AEC’S RAM 1500 LPG SYSTEM

The AEC RAM 1500 with Prins LPG System extends your range with the addition of up to 2 LPG tanks, without any compromise on performance.

Top quality LPG conversion gives you the flexibility to use either gas or LPG without impact on the power of the legendary HEMI V8 engine.

Both AEC and Prins ensure high quality installations and rigorous testing  performed by experienced professionals at the our Vehicle Processing Center in Antwerp, Belgium.

Thanks to Prins validated software and accurate calibration tested on a dyno bench, the RAM 1500 with LPG System performs optimally in all circumstances.

The benefits of LPG as an alternative fuel are both economical and practical: not only is LPG fuel more affordable than gasoline, but it also offers range extension. RAM 1500 with the 5.7L V-8 Hemi® (Consumption and Emission here) engine paired with VSI-2.0 LPG System gives you range up to 1100 km.

The 122L (approx. 98L fuel capacity) space-saving round underbody tank is fitted in place of the spare tire.

What are the advantages of the AEC Prins VSI-2.0 LPG system?

AEC Prins VSI-2.0 1-Vaporizer Non-AEC System 2-Vaporizers
Full power 5 – 10% power loss
Peak power: 401 hp | RAM 1500 models with the available V8 petrol enginges: Fuel consumption (combined): 14,9 – 12,8 l/100km; CO2-Emissions comb.: 352 – 298 g/km; CO2-Efficiency class: G-E* Peak power 360 – 380 hp
Smooth seemless adding of petrol only at peek for full power – less than 1% petrol of total consumption Full power can´t be reached due to the impossibility to add petrol at peak power
AEC specialized calibrated software incl. regular updates Individual calibration by workshop mechanic leads to worse performance
Certified by PRINS as 100% solution for the RAM Hemi® engine | RAM 1500 models with the available V8 petrol enginges: Fuel consumption (combined): 14,9 – 12,8 l/100km; CO2-Emissions comb.: 352 – 298 g/km; CO2-Efficiency class: G-E* Non-certified solution
Plug-n-Play solution: professional installation due to standardised cabels and components as well as uniform construction manual Not Plug-n-Play: every garage has its own installation style – too long and disorderly laid cables, individual solutions
AEC Vehicle Processing Center manufacturer assembly guarantee a professional, consistent and high quality installation Small garages that cannot support the same high quality installation due to lower volumes
Sourced and guaranteed by the same importer – one point of contact Multiple-points of contact (Manufacturer, warranty, importer, workshop, etc.)
Manufacturer controlled final inspection No centralized final inspection by manufacturer or importer
Continous improvement of hard- and software due to experience of high volumes Smaller volumes lead to less experience
