Harr Chrysler Jeep Dodge Ram
Shoppers who haul equipment trailers, plow driveways through New England winters, and want a cab that feels as good on Route 20 as it does on a job site tend to have a clear list of priorities: serious towing numbers, a truck that works every day, and technology that makes long hours easier. The 2027 Ram 2500 answers that list.
This 2027 Ram 2500 review covers the numbers, the cabin, and the tech, with help from Harr Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram (CDJR), serving drivers near Worcester, Auburn, and Shrewsbury, Massachusetts.
Key Takeaways:
- Diesel muscle: The available High-Output 6.7L Cummins® Turbo Diesel I6 produces 430 horsepower and 1,075 pound-feet of torque (the twisting force that gets heavy loads moving).
- Payload leader: The 6.4L HEMI® V8 with the Payload Upgrade Package delivers a best-in-class 4,580 pounds of payload (the weight of cargo the truck can carry in the bed and cab).
- Tech that fits the job: The available 14.5-inch Uconnect® 5 NAV touchscreen is the largest in its class and includes tow-specific navigation.

Drivers who spend time behind the wheel of the Ram 2500 often point to the same highlights. Many mention how smoothly the eight-speed automatic shifts, how quiet the cabin stays under load, and how roomy the crew cab feels for passengers and gear.
Shoppers who tow regularly tend to comment on how confident the truck feels with a trailer attached, while others note how easy the large touchscreen is to read at a glance.
The 2027 Ram 2500 offers two powertrains, each paired with a TorqueFlite® 8-speed automatic transmission.
| Spec | 6.7L Cummins® Turbo Diesel I6 | 6.4L HEMI® V8 |
|---|---|---|
| Max Horsepower | 430 hp @ 2,800 RPM | 405 hp @ 5,600 RPM |
| Max Torque | 1,075 lb-ft @ 1,800 RPM | 429 lb-ft @ 4,000 RPM |
| Max Towing | 20,000 lb | 17,750 lb |
| Max Payload | 3,600 lb | 4,580 lb (Best-in-Class) |
For the contractor hauling materials or the farmer towing livestock, these two powertrains cover both sides of the heavy-duty equation: Cummins torque for maximum towing or HEMI® V8 muscle for maximum cargo.
For 2027, Power Wagon models can be ordered with the High-Output Cummins for the first time. Heavy-duty four-wheel disc antilock brakes come on the truck, and Crew Cab models with the 8-foot bed can be ordered with the largest available fuel tank in the class at 50 gallons, which means more miles between stops.
Ram Heavy Duty trucks pair a commanding exterior with an interior built for long shifts. Seating options include a 40/20/40 split-folding front bench or available bucket seats, plus three 60/40 split-folding rear configurations.
Mega Cab® models add class-exclusive reclining rear seats and class-exclusive forward fold-flat rear seats. Rear passengers get a 115-volt outlet for powering devices and a center console rear cubby bin for stashing small items.
The Ram 2500 carries over 100 standard and available safety and security features. Three standouts:
Drivers who log long hours get a comfortable cabin, flexible seating, and layers of driver-assist technology that add peace of mind on the road.
The available 14.5-inch Uconnect® 5 NAV is the largest infotainment screen in the three-quarter-ton class and serves as the hub for navigation, media, and vehicle controls. Features accessible through this display include:
An available 12-inch Digital Cluster Display positions turn-by-turn navigation, gauge summaries, and vehicle diagnostics in the driver's line of sight with full-color 3D graphics.
Ram is also the only manufacturer in this segment offering an available 10.25-inch interactive front passenger display, giving your co-pilot independent access to maps and media.
The 2027 Ram 2500 brings diesel torque, class-leading payload, and a tech-rich cabin to drivers who put their trucks to work. Contact Harr CDJR to book a test drive and see how it handles. Serving Worcester, Auburn, Shrewsbury, and neighboring Massachusetts.
