Description

Is the highly anticipated 2027 Ram TRX SRT the ultimate off-road beast? We push its insane 777 horsepower to the absolute limit. See if this supercharged Ram 1500 TRX dominates! Ram 1500 Edmunds Review – https://www.edmunds.com/ram/1500/?utm_campaign=video_description&utm_source=youtube More Edmunds First Look/First Drive Videos – https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLsSQoIGhBLpTYYZtQRbxl2NjIl-gRhXCN Appraisal Tool – https://www.edmunds.com/appraisal/?utm_campaign=video_description&utm_source=youtube Car Listings – https://www.edmunds.com/new-cars-for-sale/?utm_campaign=video_description&utm_source=youtube Ratings and Reviews – https://www.edmunds.com/car-reviews/?utm_campaign=video_description&utm_source=youtube 00:00 Intro 00:48 Powertrain, Exterior, & Pricing 02:38 Off-Road Track Laps 06:59 On-Road Driving Impressions 08:51 Interior & Tech 11:02 Edmunds' Take The wait is over, and the Ram Hellcat is officially back. When Ram first refreshed the Ram 1500, we were told the V8 was dead — but thankfully, they brought it back in the most spectacular way possible. The new Ram TRX SRT packs a supercharged 6.2-liter V8 engine that pumps out a staggering 777 horsepower and 680 lb-ft of torque. In this review, we take this monstrous Ram pickup truck to the Redbud Motocross Park to see what it can really do. This off-road-focused Ram truck feels built to handle the roughest terrain, but it still delivers a surprisingly comfortable daily ride. With an estimated 0-60 time of just 3.5 seconds, this 2027 Ram 1500 TRX SRT aims to absolutely dust the competition. Taking big jumps on the track proved effortless thanks to its clever, well-tuned suspension with internal bump stops that make landings buttery smooth. Inside the 2027 Ram TRX, you get a premium cabin featuring heated, ventilated and even massaging front seats. While the massive 14.5-inch touchscreen looks impressive, its response times are not up to modern standards. If you really want to stand out, you can drop around $10,000 on the Bloodshot Night Edition appearance package. Sure, real-world fuel economy will likely be in the single digits, and the starting price hovers right around $102,000 with destination. But the verdict is clear: With unmatched power and an incredible suspension, this supercharged beast proves Ram has a performance pickup well-equipped to take on the Ford Raptor R.

The TRX SRT is back, giving the Ford Raptor R a true challenger once more. On the spec sheet, it's close – the Ram has more power, but the Ford has more ground clearance and greater approach/departure angles. Which truck would you give the edge to? Let us know in the comments below!

It’s cool they brought their halo truck back. Too expensive for me but it looks like a riot to drive.
