Ram has introduced the 2027 Rumble Bee, a new line of street-focused pickup trucks. The base model carries a starting price of $62,790. These vehicles are built on a unique frame with a wheelbase that is 13 inches shorter than the traditional crew cab (Source: claim:11).
The entry-level Rumble Bee is powered by a 395-horsepower 5.7-liter Hemi V-8 engine. Ram states this configuration accelerates from 0 to 60 mph in 6.1 seconds and completes the quarter-mile in 14.6 seconds. The truck features a front axle disconnect that allows the driver to perform burnouts.
Higher Performance Tiers
The Rumble Bee 392 is priced at $72,790 and produces 470 horsepower from a 6.4-liter Hemi V-8.
A Track Pack is available for the 392 model for an additional $10,000, bringing the total to $82,790. This package includes aerodynamic improvements, a 4.5-inch front splitter, a rear wing, launch control, an electronically locking rear differential, Bilstein adaptive dampers, Brembo brakes, and 325-section-width all-season tires.
The top-tier Rumble Bee SRT costs $97,790. It is powered by a supercharged 6.2-liter Hemi V-8 that generates 777 horsepower. This output is 307 horsepower more than the Rumble Bee 392 Track Pack, a comparison based on the difference between the 777 hp SRT model and the 470 hp 392 engine.
Ram states the SRT model accelerates to 60 mph in 3.4 seconds, covers the quarter-mile in 11.6 seconds, and reaches a top speed of 170 mph. It features full-time four-wheel drive with launch control and uses dual-valve, semi-active Bilstein Damptronic Sky Shocks.
Chassis and Utility Specifications
The shortened frame of the Rumble Bee reduces flex by 10 percent. The truck has a 5-foot-7-inch bed, a towing capacity of up to 8,890 pounds, and a payload of up to 1,160 pounds.
Interior features include a flat-bottom steering wheel, a console-mounted shifter, and aluminum paddle shifters. Available technology includes Level 2 driving assist, a 14.5-inch Uconnect 5 center touchscreen, a 12.3-inch digital gauge cluster, and a configurable full-color head-up display.
Market Context and Availability
The base Rumble Bee goes on sale in late 2026, while the 392 and SRT models follow in the first half of 2027. For comparison, the Ford F-150 Lobo has a base price of $59,995. Ford also offers a Whipple supercharger kit for the Lobo for $10,250, which increases output to 700 hp.
As a point of comparison within the Ram lineup, the Ram TRX is a separate off-road model priced at $102,790 that uses Bilstein Black Hawk e2 adaptive shocks with remote reservoirs and a Baja mode.
