Key Features of the 2027 RAM 1500

Available 5.7L HEMI® V8 Engine and Hurricane Power

Ram gives the 2027 Ram 1500 a powertrain lineup with serious depth. The available 5.7L HEMI® V8 engine returns on select models with 395 maximum horsepower, 410 pound-feet of maximum torque, up to 11,470 pounds of maximum towing capacity, and up to 1,760 pounds of maximum payload when properly equipped. For drivers who prefer the newest gas-engine performance, the available 3.0L Hurricane engines bring strong output and responsive power. The High-Output 3.0L Hurricane engine helps the truck reach up to 540 maximum available horsepower and 521 pound-feet of maximum available torque when properly equipped. Ram also notes that the 3.0L Hurricane High-Output Engine is more powerful than any Chevy Silverado 1500, GMC Sierra 1500, Toyota Tundra, and standard F-150 Raptor. The 3.6L Pentastar® V6 engine remains a smart option for shoppers who want proven everyday usability, and it helps the truck reach the maximum available payload rating of 2,340 pounds when properly equipped.

Maximum Towing and Payload Capability

The 2027 Ram 1500 is built to help drivers tow and haul with greater confidence. When properly equipped, it offers up to 11,530 pounds of maximum towing capacity and up to 2,340 pounds of maximum payload. That gives shoppers flexibility for hauling job materials, towing recreational equipment, transporting supplies, or handling projects across Western Kentucky and nearby communities. Ram also supports that strength with a 98% steel frame construction, Multi-Link Coil Spring Rear Suspension, and the Class-Exclusive available Four-Corner Active-Level™ Air Suspension System, which can automatically lower to help reduce drag and offer maximum efficiency. Available Selec-Speed® Control helps keep speed consistent while moving up hills, down slopes, or through trails. For shoppers who want extra off-road confidence, Ram 1500 Rebel® and Ram 1500 Warlock models offer 33-inch tires, a 1-inch raised ride height, a lifted suspension, and front and rear Bilstein® performance-tuned shock absorbers.

Over 50 Inches of Combined Available Digital Displays

The cabin technology in the 2027 Ram 1500 is one of its strongest selling points. Ram highlights over 50 inches of combined available digital displays, creating a modern command center that is both useful and visually impressive. Available screen options include a 14.5-inch touchscreen, Front Passenger Touchscreen Display, Interactive Digital Cluster Display, and Head-Up Display. The available 10.25-inch Front Passenger Interactive Display gives the front passenger access to entertainment and information while helping keep the driver focused. Available Dual Wireless Charging Pads make it easier to keep compatible devices powered without cluttering the cabin with cords. Ram Digital Key allows an available digital key to be added to a compatible iPhone® or Android™ device, so the driver can access and start the truck with a smartphone. A physical near field communication-based card is also provided as a backup option.

Trailer Technology and Driver Confidence

Ram equips the 2027 Ram 1500 with available towing technology designed to make trailer setup, reversing, and monitoring more intuitive. The Integrated Trailer Health Monitor provides valuable real-time information about trailer updates and trailering performance, helping drivers stay aware while pulling heavy loads. Trailer Reverse Guidance with Dynamic Gridlines displays and highlights the trailer’s predicted path when reversing, and an audible warning can sound if a potential jackknife situation is detected. Available Trailer Auto Hitch Assist allows the truck to steer itself into alignment with the trailer tongue while the driver maintains control of braking and throttle. The available Digital Rearview Mirror with Tow Mode uses a live video stream from a trailer-mounted rear-facing camera to give a clearer view behind the trailer. Available Telescopic Trailer Tow Mirrors provide a wider side view, and available forward and reverse spotter functionality with the available Mirror-Mounted Camera System can help extend viewing range while towing.

RamBox® Cargo Management System and On-Board Power

Smart utility is a major part of the Ram 1500 identity, and the 2027 model continues that focus with practical cargo and power solutions. The Class-Exclusive available RamBox® Cargo Management System provides secure, convenient storage for tools, supplies, recreation gear, and everyday items. It includes a 115-volt outlet, interior LED light, lockable design, and drainable construction, making it useful for both work and personal use. The available Remote Power Tailgate Control feature lets the driver operate the tailgate using the key fob, a button in the overhead console, or the tailgate handle, though it is not available with the multifunction tailgate. The available multifunction tailgate improves access to the cargo bed with 60/40 split swing-away doors, even while trailering. The On-Board Power system includes a 400-watt inverter and can scale up to a maximum available 2-kilowatt power inverter drawing on the truck’s engine and battery. Two 120-volt outlets help power tools, appliances, and other external equipment.
