The 2027 RAM 1500 Rumble Bee marks the return of a nameplate that has been dormant for two decades, and it launches as a full lineup of four HEMI®-powered muscle trucks rather than a single special edition. Built on a purpose-built Quad Cab short bed, every RAM 1500 Rumble Bee trades some frame length for sharper handling. Lester Glenn Chrysler Dodge Jeep® RAM has already started fielding questions from buyers eager to see what the revival is all about.
Performance Features
The lineup starts with the RAM 1500 Rumble Bee, powered by a 5.7-liter HEMI® V8 that produces 395 horsepower and 410 lb-ft. of torque through a TorqueFlite® eight-speed automatic transmission. Stepping up, the RAM 1500 Rumble Bee 392 introduces the platform's first-ever 6.4-liter HEMI® V8, rated at 470 horsepower and 455 lb-ft. of torque, with the Rumble Bee 392 Track Pack adding an electronic spool differential and launch control for the drag strip.
At the top, the RAM 1500 Rumble Bee SRT houses a supercharged 6.2-liter HEMI® V8 making 777 horsepower and 680 lb-ft. of torque, targeting a 170 mph top speed and a 3.4-second 0-60 mph run. Every trim includes full-time active four-wheel drive with a console-mounted button that disconnects the front axle for rear-wheel-drive-only driving.
Safety Features
The entry RAM 1500 Rumble Bee comes with a standard ParkView® rear backup camera with dynamic gridlines and center lines, along with vented disc brakes on all four corners for consistent stopping power. Higher trims add real substance: the Rumble Bee 392 offers available Active Driving Assist, which becomes standard on the Rumble Bee 392 Track Pack and Rumble Bee SRT. The SRT also gains a purpose-built cooling and brake-ducting system, reducing brake temperatures by more than 30 percent during hard use.
Towing Features
Despite the shortened frame, RAM did not compromise the truck side of the equation. Every one of these new RAM trucks can tow up to 8,890 lbs and carry a payload of up to 1,160 lbs when properly equipped, figures that hold steady across the entry model, the 392, the Track Pack and the SRT.
