RAM 1500: powertrains and specs

To properly compare the electric RAM and the gas RAM powertrains, it is important to look at each aspect of performance.

Range: slight advantage for the RAM 1500 REV

The RAM 1500 REV shows a total range of 1,110 km, which surpasses most electric vehicles, as well as many gas vehicles, including the RAM 1500.

However, it is important to note that this total range includes a range extender that takes the form of a direct current generator powered by a 3.6 L Pentastar V6 engine.

Therefore, to benefit from the total range of the RAM 1500 REV, you need to use this generator, which consumes gasoline.

Power: advantage to the RAM 1500 REV, except for the 2027 RAM 1500 SRT TRX trim

Unless new information indicates otherwise, the 2027 RAM 1500 should keep the same powertrains as the 2026 model.

In terms of output, even the most capable engine in the 2026 RAM 1500 does not reach the performance of the electric powertrain in the 2027 RAM 1500 REV.

However, the American manufacturer has already announced the big return of the 6.2 L supercharged HEMI V8, exclusive to the 2027 RAM 1500 SRT TRX trim. This engine is the best option in terms of power.

Here is a quick comparison of these three options:

Vehicle	Powertrain	Maximum horsepower	Maximum torque
2026 RAM 1500	High-output 3.0 L Hurricane twin-turbo inline-six	540	521 lb-ft
2027 RAM 1500 REV	Two 400 V electric drive modules	663	615 lb-ft
2027 RAM 1500 SRT TRX	6.2 L supercharged HEMI V8	777	680 lb-ft

Towing and payload: advantage to the RAM 1500 REV

Finally, the RAM REV offers towing and payload capacities that surpass even those of the regular-output Hurricane twin-turbo 6-cylinder, the gas RAM's engine that performs best in this area.

Here is an overview of the maximum capacities for each truck:

Truck	Maximum towing capacity	Maximum payload
2026 RAM 1500 gas	11,610 lb.	2,360 lb.
RAM 1500 REV	14,000 lb.	2,600 lb.

Thus, the electric RAM is a truck that promises to redefine the work capabilities expected of an electric vehicle.

RAM 1500 REV Tungsten: the peak of comfort

RAM 1500 pickups are known for being extremely comfortable full-size trucks.

When looking at the different trims offered, the gas RAM 1500 and the electric model appear to offer comparable levels of comfort.

The RAM 1500 REV Tungsten trim presents as the most luxurious RAM to date. Among other equipment and accessories, it promises:

Front leather seats with 24-power controls
A 23-speaker Klipsch sound system with subwoofer
Dual wireless smartphone charging
22-inch aluminum wheels

Electric or gas RAM: who is it for?

At first glance, the RAM 1500 REV may seem to offer many advantages when compared to the gas RAM 1500.

However, as you should always do when shopping for a new vehicle, your personal needs must be taken into consideration.

Gas RAM 1500: accessible and proven

One notable advantage of the gas RAM 1500 is its favourable starting price.

If you need the higher capabilities of a full-size truck, but you do not have the budget for a RAM 1500 REV, the gas RAM is a vehicle that offers excellent value for money.

In addition, it is a vehicle with proven performance and reliability over decades.

And with the return of the HEMI V8 engine in 2027 on the gas-powered TRX, the RAM REV will not be the most powerful 2027 RAM 1500, even though its performance is noteworthy.

RAM 1500 REV electric: innovative and luxurious

Among the reasons to switch to an electric vehicle in 2026, the arrival of the RAM 1500 REV gives you food for thought.

Offering towing and payload that place it at the top of its category, it is, without a doubt, an excellent vehicle for work and leisure. However, it remains significantly more expensive than the gas-powered RAM.
