Key Features of the 2027 RAM 1500

America’s Most Powerful Lineup of Full-Size Gas Light Duty Pickup Trucks

The 2027 Ram 1500 offers a range of gas powertrains so drivers can match performance to personal priorities. The available 5.7L HEMI® V8 engine delivers 395 maximum horsepower, 410 maximum torque, up to 11,470 pounds of maximum towing capacity and up to 1,760 pounds of maximum payload when properly equipped. Drivers who want maximum output can look to the High-Output 3.0L Hurricane engine, which helps the truck reach up to 540 maximum available horsepower and 521 maximum available torque. 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. For shoppers who value proven, balanced performance, the 3.6L Pentastar® V6 engine remains part of the lineup and helps the truck achieve its maximum available payload rating. This variety matters because not every driver tows the same trailer, hauls the same cargo or wants the same driving feel. The Ram 1500 gives online shoppers meaningful choices rather than a one-size-fits-all approach.

Maximum Towing and Payload Capability

Capability is central to the 2027 Ram 1500, and the truck backs up its design with impressive working numbers. When properly equipped, it offers up to 11,530 pounds of maximum towing capacity and 2,340 pounds of maximum payload. That gives drivers the confidence to consider a wide range of trailers, materials, tools and recreational equipment. The truck’s 98 percent steel frame construction supports strength, while the Multi-Link Coil Spring Rear Suspension helps deliver a smoother, more controlled ride than many drivers expect from a capable pickup. The Class-Exclusive available Four-Corner Active-Level™ Air Suspension System can automatically lower to help reduce drag and offer maximum efficiency, adding another layer of smart engineering. Available Selec-Speed® Control helps keep speed consistent while working up hills, down slopes or through trails. For drivers interested in off-road confidence, Ram 1500 Rebel® and Ram 1500 Warlock models can include 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 of the 2027 Ram 1500 is designed to feel modern, intuitive and useful, not cluttered. Available digital display technology includes a 14.5-inch touchscreen, Front Passenger Interactive Display, Interactive Digital Cluster Display and Head-Up Display. Together, these systems can provide over 50 inches of combined available digital displays, helping keep navigation, vehicle information, entertainment and trailering views within easy reach. The available Front Passenger Interactive Display is especially useful for long drives, giving the passenger a dedicated screen for entertainment and assistance without crowding the driver’s primary controls. Available Dual Wireless Charging Pads help keep compatible devices powered without filling the cabin with cords. Ram Digital Key allows owners to add an available digital key to a compatible iPhone® or Android™ device to access and start the truck with a smartphone, while a physical near field communication-based card can serve as a backup. This technology suite supports the way drivers already live, work and communicate.

Advanced Trailering Technology

The 2027 Ram 1500 is not only strong enough to tow substantial loads; it is also designed to help make towing more manageable. The Integrated Trailer Health Monitor provides valuable real-time information about trailer updates and trailering performance, helping drivers stay informed before small concerns become bigger interruptions. Trailer Reverse Guidance with Dynamic Gridlines displays and highlights the trailer’s predicted path while backing up, and an audible warning can sound if a potential jackknife situation is detected. Available Digital Rearview Mirror with Tow Mode uses a live video stream from a trailer-mounted rear-facing camera to provide a clearer view behind the trailer. Trailer Auto Hitch Assist can steer the truck into alignment with the trailer tongue while the driver maintains control of the brakes and throttle. Available Telescopic Trailer Tow Mirrors add a wider view along the sides of a trailer, and available forward and reverse spotter functionality with the available Mirror-Mounted Camera System extends and retracts to help improve viewing range. These tools make towing feel more precise, especially in driveways, lots, job sites and campgrounds.

Luxury, Storage and Safety in One Cabin

The 2027 Ram 1500 proves that a hardworking pickup can also feel premium. In Ram 1500 Tungsten models, the cabin can include Best-in-Class 24-way power-adjustable front seats with heat, ventilation, memory and massage functionality. Passengers benefit from Class-Exclusive Reclining Rear Seats, Best-in-Class Rear Legroom and Class-Exclusive 2nd Row In-Floor Storage. The Klipsch® Reference Premiere Audio System available in Ram 1500 Tungsten models includes 23 speakers, giving the truck More Speakers Than Any Other Competitor In Its Class. Outside, the Class-Exclusive available RamBox® Cargo Management System provides lockable and drainable storage with a 115-volt outlet and interior LED light. Available On-Board Power can scale up to a maximum available 2-kilowatt power inverter with two 120-volt outlets, supporting tools, appliances and other external equipment. Safety is equally important, with more than 100 standard and available safety and security features, including available Hands-Free Active Driving Assist, Evasive Steering Assist, Intersection Collision Assist System, Drowsy Driver Detection and Traffic Sign Recognition.
