Premier Cape Cod stocks the 2027 Ram 2500 lineup in Hyannis; compare Big Horn with the work, off-road and comfort-focused trims using the cab, engine and equipment your loads require rather than choosing from the badge alone.
2027 Ram 2500 Engines and Powertrain Options
The 2027 Ram 2500 lineup runs on two engines, both paired with an 8-speed automatic transmission built specifically for heavy-duty torque loads.
6.4L HEMI V8 (standard)
The 6.4L HEMI V8 comes standard on every 2027 Ram 2500 trim and pairs with the TorqueFlite 8-speed automatic. It tows up to 17,750 pounds and, with the Payload Upgrade Package (available on Tradesman, Big Horn configurations, Laramie, Limited, and Limited Longhorn), carries up to 4,580 pounds of payload on a raised 11,040-pound GVWR. Gas HEMI V8 trucks also carry a HEMI V8 exterior fender badge.
High-Output 6.7L Cummins Turbo Diesel I6 (available)

Power Wagon offers the diesel engine, opening up serious towing numbers on Ram's most off-road-capable HD trim.
2027 Ram 2500 Trim Lineup
Ram builds the 2027 Ram 2500 across nine trims, from a fleet-ready base truck to a near-luxury cabin. Here's what sets each one apart.
Tradesman
The work-focused entry point in the 2500 lineup, built around durable materials and full access to the powertrain and capability options that define the platform. Available in Regular Cab or Crew Cab, 4x2 or 4x4. Fleet buyers and commercial operators typically start here.
Black Express
Builds on Tradesman with a blacked-out exterior treatment. Crew Cab only, standard 4x4.
Warlock
Adds dark exterior accents and off-road visual cues over the Tradesman base. Crew Cab only, 4x4 only.
Big Horn (Cape Cod configurations)
The volume trim: body-color exterior trim, a more refined interior, and technology upgrades over Tradesman without moving into premium territory. Big Horn is in stock at Premier Cape Cod in Hyannis.
Power Wagon
The benchmark off-road trim in the 2500 lineup, exclusively 4x4 Crew Cab with a 6-foot, 4-inch bed. Standard equipment includes front and rear electronic-locking differentials, Bilstein monotube shocks, a standard disconnecting front stabilizer bar, Hill Descent Control, 20-inch Satin Black wheels, and 34-inch all-terrain tires. Power Wagon offers the High-Output Cummins diesel and fifth-wheel/gooseneck preparation for buyers comparing an off-road truck with a trailer-hauling role.
Rebel
The street-oriented off-road trim, positioned above Power Wagon for on-road presence with trail capability. 4x4 only, with both the HEMI V8 and the Cummins diesel available, plus a standard rear electronic-locking differential.
Laramie
Where the 2500 shifts toward a dual-purpose truck: leather-trimmed seating, added technology, and chrome exterior detailing. Available RamBox storage and optional body-color fender flares give Laramie buyers additional choices for gear and exterior appearance.
Limited Longhorn
A ranch-heritage aesthetic with genuine wood trim, premium leather, and Western-influenced exterior badging, built on the full capability of the 2500 platform.
Limited
The top trim in the 2027 Ram 2500 lineup. Leather seating with real wood and aluminum accents, the largest available touchscreen, the 12-inch digital cluster, and Harman Kardon audio as standard or available content.
Technology and Connectivity
Every 2027 Ram 2500 is built around the Uconnect 5 system, with the largest available touchscreen in the heavy-duty pickup class: a 14.5-inch Uconnect 5 NAV unit that supports up to five personalized driver profiles and tow-specific navigation. Power Wagon comes standard with a 12-inch Uconnect 5 screen. Wireless Apple CarPlay and wireless Android Auto are both supported, and Android Auto integrates Google Gemini. An available 10.25-inch front passenger interactive display is an option to compare, along with available dual wireless charging pads with cooling ventilation. The available 12-inch Digital Cluster Display shows full-color 3D graphics, turn-by-turn navigation, off-road pitch-and-roll data, and dedicated trailer tow pages.
Interior and Comfort

Front-row seating options span a 40/20/40 split-folding bench or available bucket seats, with three different 60/40 split-folding rear configurations. Mega Cab models add available reclining rear seats and available forward fold-flat rear seats. Storage runs deep: in-floor Ram Bins, a fold-flat load floor, a rear cubby bin, and a 115-volt rear outlet for charging devices on long hauls. An available 900-watt, 17-speaker Harman Kardon Premium Audio System with Interior Active Noise Cancellation is the top audio option across the lineup.
Towing and Payload Capability
The headline numbers: up to 17,750 pounds of towing on the gas HEMI V8, up to 20,000 pounds on the available Cummins diesel, and a maximum 4,580-pound gas payload when properly equipped with the Payload Upgrade Package. Ram 2500 Crew Cab models with an 8-foot bed add an available 50-gallon fuel tank on this cab-and-bed configuration for longer hauls between fill-ups. Available towing tech includes Trailer Reverse Steering Control (a steering knob controls the trailer while the truck manages its own wheel), trailer tire pressure monitoring for up to four trailers, a Digital Rearview Mirror with a wired Tow Mode Camera, and a factory-available Fifth-Wheel/Gooseneck Prep Package with a factory-installed rear-axle crossmember. The factory-available Rear Auto-Level Air Suspension lowers or raises the truck to help line up the hitch. See the 2027 Ram 2500 Towing Capacity page for the full breakdown by configuration.
Off-Road Capability
Power Wagon remains the 2500 lineup's off-road benchmark: front and rear electronic-locking differentials, a standard disconnecting front stabilizer bar, Bilstein monotube shocks, Hill Descent Control, and 34-inch all-terrain tires, all standard. Power Wagon offers the High-Output Cummins diesel, pairing serious torque with genuine trail hardware. Rebel sits alongside it as the street-oriented off-road trim, with a standard rear electronic-locking differential and an available Sport Performance Hood. Both trims offer a factory-available factory-installed integrated front winch.
Safety and Driver Assistance
The 2027 Ram 2500 carries over 100 standard and available safety and security features. Adaptive Cruise Control is standard across the lineup, maintaining a driver-set following distance and able to slow the truck to a complete stop in traffic, even with a trailer attached. Available systems include Forward crash Warning with Active Braking (which can bring the truck to a full stop, including while towing), LaneSense Lane Departure Warning with enhanced Lane Keep Assist, Drowsy Driver Detection, Traffic Sign Recognition, a 360-degree Surround View Camera, and an LED Trailer Hitch Light built into the tailgate handle area for visibility when connecting a trailer.
Which 2027 Ram 2500 Is Right for You?
Four starting points, based on how you actually use the truck:
- Daily hauling and job-site work, keeping costs down: Tradesman or Big Horn with the standard HEMI V8 covers most contractor and landscaping loads without stepping up to diesel. See current Ram 2500 inventory.
- Regular heavy towing — livestock trailers, big campers, equipment trailers: the available Cummins diesel and its 20,000-pound tow rating is the ceiling of what a three-quarter-ton truck offers; Laramie or Limited pairs it with a more finished cabin.
- Off-road and winter work, including plowing: Power Wagon brings locking differentials, disconnecting sway bar, and standard Snowplow Prep wiring, with the available Cummins diesel supplying torque for drivers choosing this trail-focused equipment.
- A daily driver that also tows on weekends: Rebel balances on-road presence with real trail hardware and both engine choices.
A well-equipped Big Horn with the Payload Upgrade Package is a strong middle ground for most Cape Cod buyers who need real capability without stepping all the way up to Limited trim.
