It’s a 1/2-ton pickup truck with a $99,995 MSRP. “That’s a big number, but it’s a lot of truck for the money. It offers the most horsepower per dollar in this segment,” Noah Thanos, product PR manager for Ram North America, said during a media day interview at the 2026 Detroit Auto Show. The 2027 Ram 1500 SRT TRX will reach the marketplace as the most powerful gas-fueled pickup truck ever produced. “This is really the pinnacle of what we can do with internal combustion,” said Thanos. The full-size truck will grab an estimated 777 horsepower and 680 lb-ft of torque via a 6.2-liter supercharged HEMI V8. Travel time from 0 to 60 mph is a mere 3.5 seconds.
The Ram 1500 SRT TRX’s standard fare includes massaging, heated and ventilated front seats; heated, ventilated and reclining rear seats; leather-wrapped airbag cover with red stitching; suede headliner and visors; and a 19-speaker Harman Kardon audio system. The truck’s dashboard anchors a standard, best-in-class 14.5-inch touchscreen. On-road and off-road ride and handling get a major boost from standard 35-inch tires and the proprietary Ram Active Terrain Dynamics suspension management system. “This truck can sense when it’s midair and prepare the shocks for a composed landing,” Thanos said. The Ram 1500 SRT TRX is slated to reach the market in late 2026.
