Ram has unveiled a new family of V-8-powered pickup trucks called the Rumble Bee, a lineup that ranges from a 395-hp 5.7-liter Hemi to a 777-hp supercharged 6.2-liter Hellcat. The loudest version, the 2027 Ram 1500 Rumble Bee SRT, is aimed at a 170 mph top speed and is set to go on sale in the first half of next year.

The Rumble Bee SRT packs a 777-hp Hellcat V-8 with 680 pound-feet of torque and is claimed to hit 60 mph in 3.4 seconds. It also uses Bilstein adaptive dampers, a height-adjustable air suspension and 325-section-width all-season tires, while a 3.1-inch-tall rear spoiler attached to the tailgate does not interfere with bed access.

Ram is pitching the Rumble Bee as a broader move back toward V-8-powered half-ton pickups, with the new trucks sharing body panels with the off-road-focused Ram 1500 TRX. Every Rumble Bee gets the TRX’s bulging hood with three amber lights in the functional hood scoop, along with a flow-through R-A-M logo in the grille and a quad-cab body with a five-foot-seven-inch bed.

The middle of the lineup is the Rumble Bee 392, which uses a 470-hp 6.4-liter V-8, the first time Ram has put that engine in a half-ton pickup. The 5.7-liter Rumble Bee will come with standard all-wheel drive and a front-axle disconnect that can unlock a rear-drive mode, giving the family a wider spread of personalities than the badge might suggest.

Pricing will split the family sharply. The 5.7-liter truck and the 392 version are expected to be more affordable, while the SRT is likely to cost over $100,000 when it arrives. Ram says the 5.7-liter Rumble Bee will go on sale later this year, giving buyers a first chance at the new V-8 lineup before the full-force SRT reaches showrooms next year.

The setup leaves Ram trying to cover several corners of the performance-pickup market at once: a relatively accessible V-8 truck, a new half-ton home for the 6.4-liter engine and a Hellcat flagship built to chase supercar numbers in a full-size pickup. For now, the most important detail is simple: the Rumble Bee is Ram’s clearest sign yet that V-8 trucks are back in the conversation, and this time the company is offering them in more than one form.
