Fuel Curve’s Top 10 New Products of 2022
One of the fastest growing categories on FuelCurve.com is our Parts & Performance section. A major factor to that growth is the 3x/week showcasing of new products hitting the automotive aftermarket. Last year was the first year we dug through our website stats to pick out and highlight the Top 10 most viewed New Products of the year. We’re doing the same in 2022 (and will continue this tradition into the future) and kicking off our 2022 year-end countdowns with the Top 10 New Products of 2022.
Showcased below is a good variety of products ranging from handling or horsepower performance to style and comfort desires. We featured over 100 new products in 2022 and these 10 were the most attention-grabbing of the year. There’s no brand left out of this bunch from the “Big 3” – we got stuff for GM, Ford and Mopar fans!
If your company has new products they’d like to submit to FuelCurve.com to be featured in the upcoming year(s), CLICK HERE to view our submission guidelines and process.

#2 – New TREMEC TKX 5-Speed
TREMEC recently introduced their all new TKX five-speed to the performance world.

The case is noticeably sleeker for improved fitment, especially in older vehicles. Plus, the internals were redesigned to hold even more torque capacity! Getting a huge OEM supplier like TREMEC to listen to what a bunch of hot rodders have to say is rare these days, but according to Mike Kidd, their aftermarket business manager, “we listened to our customers, combined their suggestions with our OEM technology, and strengthened our aftermarket lineup with the all new TKX.”
