The 2027 RAM 1500 TRX SRT — 777 Horsepower and the Return of the Apex Predator

The most extreme truck RAM has ever built is back. The 2027 RAM 1500 TRX SRT returns with 777 horsepower from a supercharged 6.2-litre HEMI V8, reclaiming its title as the fastest and most powerful production gas pickup in the world. This is a halo truck in every sense, a factory-built, desert-ready, tire-shredding monster that also happens to be a genuinely capable and luxurious pickup. For truck enthusiasts across Smithers, Terrace, Kitimat, and Northern BC, the return of the TRX is big news, and orders are open now.

777 Horsepower and a Supercharged HEMI

At the heart of the TRX SRT is the legendary 6.2-litre supercharged HEMI V8, the same breed of engine that powered the Hellcat, now making 777 horsepower and 680 lb-ft of torque, an increase of 75 horsepower over the previous TRX. A twin-screw supercharger force-feeds the engine for near-instant throttle response and relentless acceleration. The result is a full-size truck that launches from 0 to 60 mph in just 3.5 seconds with standard Launch Control and reaches a top speed of 118 mph. These are supercar numbers in a pickup that can also tow, haul, and go off-road. Nothing else in the segment matches it.

Built to Conquer Any Terrain

The TRX is not just about straight-line speed. It is engineered to fly across rough terrain at speed, with more than a foot of suspension travel front and rear, Bilstein Black Hawk e2 adaptive performance shocks, and 35-inch off-road tires on 18-inch wheels. RAM Active Terrain Dynamics and full-time four-wheel drive let it handle everything from open desert to the rough backcountry. For anyone in Northern BC who has ever dreamed of a factory truck that can attack a forest service road or open country at speed while carrying the whole crew, the TRX is that truck. Its functional hood scoop feeds the supercharger, and its widebody stance gives it a presence nothing else on the road can match.

Premium Inside, Legendary Outside

The TRX SRT is as luxurious as it is capable. Inside, you get hand-wrapped leather surfaces, real carbon-fibre trim, heated, ventilated, and massaging front seats, class-exclusive dual wireless charging pads, and a 19-speaker Harman Kardon premium audio system. It is also the only high-performance off-road gas pickup, alongside its RHO sibling, to offer Hands-free Active Drive Assist, so this beast can also cruise the highway between Smithers and Prince George in relaxed, semi-autonomous comfort. For those who want to make a statement, the limited-run Bloodshot Night Edition adds a hand-painted blacktop upper, a flame-red hood stripe, unique splash graphics, red interior accents, and beadlock-capable wheels.

A Halo Truck Worth Celebrating

The TRX SRT is the first off-road product from RAM’s relaunched SRT Performance Division and the first SRT RAM in two decades. It is not for everyone, and it is not meant to be. It is a statement, a celebration of everything a truck can be when the engineers are given no limits. Even for those who will admire it rather than own it, the TRX represents the return of American performance at its most extreme. For the enthusiast in the Smithers, Terrace, or Kitimat area who wants the ultimate expression of what a RAM can be, the TRX SRT is the pinnacle, and it is available to order now.
