Let's break the details of this Ram HD truck below.

How Is the Ram 2500 Changing for 2027?

Most of the Ram's changes are trim-centric. Motor Trend reports that the biggest news involves the Power Wagon; you can now equip it with the 6.7-liter Cummins High-Output turbodiesel engine for the first time. Choosing the Cummins-equipped Power Wagon pairs the diesel with a 3.42:1 rear axle ratio and TorqueFlite HD eight-speed automatic. Automatic-leveling rear air suspension and fifth-wheel gooseneck preparation are also available. The exterior gets trail-ready body protection, a standard sport performance hood, Power Wagon bed decals, and Satin Black Cummins badges. Inside, buyers can opt for a 14.5-inch infotainment touchscreen.

Ram also adds Sport Appearance and Night Edition packages with more aggressive exterior styling. Rebel, Power Wagon, and Big Horn models are now available with a sport performance hood featuring a raised center section and slim air scoop along its leading edge. The Tradesman adds an anti-spin rear differential, while body-color fender flares become optional on the Laramie. Serrano Green Metallic and Tank Clear-Coat join the exterior color choices.

Which Engines Are in the 2027 Ram 2500?

The standard engine is a 405-hp 6.4-liter V8 cranking out 429 lb-ft. Buyers who need additional torque can choose the 6.7-liter Cummins High-Output turbodiesel inline-six generating 430 ponies and 1,075 lb-ft. Both engines mate to an 8-speed automatic transmission, and the Cummins can be paired with either rear- or four-wheel drive.

How Much Can the Ram 2500 Tow and Haul?

When equipped with the Cummins diesel, the Ram 2500 tows a max of 20,000 pounds. Payload capacity reaches 4,420 pounds with the 6.4-liter gas V8.

Why Doesn't the Ram 2500 Have EPA MPG Ratings?

The EPA doesn't provide fuel-economy estimates for many heavy duty pickups because their Gross Vehicle Weight Ratings are over 8,500 pounds. But Car and Driver found that the HD Crew Cab 4x4 got 22 mpg, while the off-road-oriented Power Wagon recorded 19 mpg.

What Tech Can You Expect in the Ram 2500?

The Ram 2500 offers several infotainment configurations, beginning with a standard 8.4-inch touchscreen. Buyers can upgrade to a 12.0-inch display or the larger 14.5-inch touchscreen. A separate 10.3-inch passenger display is also available.

Its system includes navigation, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto and an available subscription-based Wi-Fi hotspot. Five USB ports provide charging and up to three 115-volt outlets can supply charging for personal items and tools.
