2027 Ram 1500: What's New, Trims, Specs & Features
The 2027 Ram 1500 introduces the 777-horsepower TRX SRT and an all-new Rumble Bee muscle truck lineup for this model year. That is a larger powertrain expansion than any prior Ram 1500 update, spanning seven distinct engine options across the full range. This page covers every trim, spec, and change, with current inventory available at ASA Auto Plaza.
What's New for 2027
The headline addition for 2027 is the return of the Ram 1500 TRX SRT, now producing 777 hp and 680 lb-ft of torque from a 6.2-liter supercharged HEMI V8, the most powerful production, street-legal, gas half-ton pickup ever built. The TRX earns an SRT badge for the first time in Ram's history, marking the return of the SRT Performance division to the Ram lineup after nearly two decades.
Equally significant is the launch of the all-new Rumble Bee muscle truck family, an entirely new subsegment within the Ram 1500 lineup. Four variants cover a power range from 395 hp to 777 hp, all built on an exclusive Quad Cab short-bed widebody configuration that is 88 inches wide and 219.5 inches long. The Rumble Bee SRT targets a 170-mph top speed and a 3.4-second 0-60 mph time. The Rumble Bee 392 marks the first time Ram has offered a 6.4-liter HEMI V8 in the Ram 1500 platform.
Additional 2027 changes across the broader lineup include:
- The 360-degree surround view camera is now standard on Limited, Limited Longhorn, and RHO trims, and newly optional on Laramie and Rebel Level 1 Equipment Group configurations.
- Ram 1500s equipped with the 3.6-liter Pentastar V6 eTorque gain available 2kW onboard power via two 120-volt outlets in the pickup bed.
- The RHO gains a new Popular Equipment Group adding the 14.5-inch Uconnect 5 touchscreen and 19-speaker Harman Kardon audio system.
- The RHO debuts a reimagined tailgate badge with a new rhino head motif.
- Rain-sensing windshield wipers are now standard on Laramie.
- The Big Horn Crew Cab with Level 2 Equipment Group adds passive entry.
- Ram 1500 Limited and Limited Longhorn now offer a RamBox delete option for buyers who need maximum usable bed width.
- New color Goldilocks Pearl-Coat arrives as late availability on select models, joined by the return of Flame Red Clear-Coat (late availability), and Tank Clear-Coat gains expanded availability across the lineup.
- Tradesman, Black Express, Warlock, and Rebel add a new Satin Black Symbol of Protest fender badge. Trucks equipped with the Night Edition Package also receive the badge.
- The Ram 1500 Warlock powered by the 3.6-liter Pentastar V6 eTorque adds a new entry point to Ram's off-road family.

Rumble Bee Engineering Highlights
The Rumble Bee's handling characteristics begin with a frame shortened by 13 inches between the axles, reducing frame flex by 10% for greater rigidity. The widebody stance is achieved through a front track that is 6.8 inches wider than a standard Ram 1500 and a rear axle that is 7 inches wider. Rumble Bee and Rumble Bee 392 use Bilstein monotube performance shocks with a coil suspension setup. The Rumble Bee 392 Track Pack and Rumble Bee SRT use standard Bilstein Damptronic Sky dual-valve semi-active performance shocks with air suspension, which can lower the truck an additional 1.5 inches in Track mode.
Front braking on Rumble Bee and Rumble Bee 392 uses 14.9-inch vented discs with two-piston pin-slider calipers. The Rumble Bee 392 Track Pack and Rumble Bee SRT step up to 16.1-inch rotors with six-piston Brembo calipers front. Rumble Bee 392 Track Pack and Rumble Bee SRT also include launch control, an electronic spool differential for drag race starts, and seven driver-selectable modes: Auto, Sport, Track, Snow, Tow, Custom, and Valet.
Aerodynamics on the Rumble Bee 392 Track Pack and Rumble Bee SRT are purpose-built for 170-mph stability. A 4.5-inch front splitter made from sheet molding compound generates front downforce and divides airflow above and below the vehicle. A front aero shield links the splitter to the cradle and fascia while contributing additional downforce. Brake cooling ducts integrated into the fascia reduce brake temperatures by more than 30% depending on speed and ambient temperature. An 80mm rear spoiler spanning the full tailgate width generates rear downforce to balance the front. The optional trifold hard tonneau cover adds structural rigidity under aerodynamic load at speed, generating stabilizing downforce at the rear. Combined, these elements generate 192 lbs. of positive downforce at 170 mph.
Direct Connection Performance Parts
Ram and Direct Connection offer factory-backed performance upgrades for the entire Rumble Bee lineup. Parts are available through the Ram dealer network.

Who It's For / vs the Prior Year
Buyers who prioritized fuel-efficient daily towing will find the Hurricane SO and HO twin-turbo engines unchanged in output but meaningfully expanded in trim availability. The RHO's new Popular Equipment Group makes the 540-hp Hurricane HO more accessible without forcing buyers into a full Level 1 package.
The biggest shift from any prior Ram 1500 model year is the addition of two entirely new categories. The Rumble Bee lineup creates a performance-first muscle truck option that did not exist in the half-ton market before 2027. These trucks are purpose-built for buyers who already own or appreciate American muscle cars and want a pickup that reflects that identity, not a work truck with a performance badge. The exclusive Quad Cab short-bed widebody structure, HEMI V8-only powertrain choices, and track-capable SRT variant set the Rumble Bee apart from every other configuration in the class.
The TRX SRT's return fills a gap that existed since the original TRX ended production in 2024. With 777 hp, up from 702 hp on the outgoing model, and second-generation Bilstein Black Hawk e2 adaptive shocks, the 2027 version is the most capable TRX produced. Ram Active Terrain Dynamics and Hands-free Active Drive Assist L2+ are both standard for the first time on TRX.
Buyers in the Jackson, MN area looking for a straightforward work and tow truck will find the Tradesman through Laramie trims most relevant. Buyers seeking off-road performance will step into the Rebel, RHO, or TRX SRT. The Tungsten remains the benchmark for interior luxury in the half-ton segment. Buyers drawn to American muscle performance now have four Rumble Bee variants to choose from, with Direct Connection upgrades available through the dealer network.
