2027 RAM 3500: what's new
The 2027 RAM 3500, with pricing to be announced soon, arrives with targeted adjustments while keeping its proven formula.
6.4 L HEMI trims receive a new fender emblem called “Symbol of Protest.” A small touch that stands out.
On the capability front, some Regular Cab or Crew Cab configurations see their GVWR rise to as much as 11,440 lb., which is 400 lb. more than in 2026.
The Laramie also gains broader RamBox availability, plus new body-colour fender flares. Two new colours are added as well: Serrano Green Metallic and Tank Clear-Coat.
The rest remains. Same five-trim lineup, same toughness, same solid reputation.
Capability, performance and available engines
The 2027 RAM 3500 leans on a spec sheet with two robust engines. The 6.4 L HEMI delivers 410 horsepower and 429 lb-ft of torque. The Cummins HO 6.7 L produces 430 horsepower and 1,075 lb-ft of torque, the best diesel torque in its class.
In terms of performance, the RAM 3500 with the HEMI can tow up to 18,140 lb.* and carry a payload of 7,580 lb.*. The Cummins HO goes further with up to 37,020 lb.* of towing and 6,460 lb.* of payload.
- 410horsepower (HEMI 6.4 L)
- 18,140lb max. towing* (HEMI)
- 430horsepower (Cummins HO)
- 37,020lb max. towing* (Cummins HO)
Pro tip:
“As soon as you get into a 3500 equipped with the diesel, it can easily pull 30,000 lb. or 35,000 lb. day in and day out, no problem. It is built for that.
But if you want to know whether a 2500 or a 3500 is better suited to your needs, that’s a conversation you want to have with an expert. It truly depends on your case. Our solid experience lets us ask the right questions to make sure you leave with the right truck.”

Both engines are offered in 4x2 or 4x4 configurations, with several cab and cargo bed choices depending on the trim.
Regarding fuel consumption, Heavy Duty pickups like the RAM 3500 do not receive an official NRCan rating. The best way to get a realistic picture for your use is to discuss it with a Paillé advisor, near Pierreville and Yamaska.
2027 RAM 3500 Tradesman: from $61,740**
The Tradesman is the solid foundation of the lineup. A straightforward, robust configuration designed for work above all: cloth seats, 18-inch black painted steel rims, and an 8.4-inch Uconnect 5 touch screen.
It brings the essentials for the job: adaptive cruise control with automatic braking, a trailer brake controller, and a Class V hitch. Nothing superfluous, but everything you need to tow and work seriously.
The gap in price versus upper trims mainly comes from the lack of cosmetic and comfort add-ons, not from the powertrain.
The 2026 RAM 3500 and its price is already available at Paillé Chrysler, as are all other 2026 3500 trims, while the 2027 models arrive in dealership.
We also included 2026 pricing, since the 2027 new RAM 3500 MSRP is not yet available. No matter the model year, you benefit from attractive financing solutions and a generous RAM warranty***.

Starting price$61,740**2027 RAM 3500 Big Horn: from $65,240**
The Big Horn adds a step of comfort and style over Tradesman: 18 inch polished aluminum rims, a chrome radiator grille with black surround, chrome bumpers, and chrome headlamp bezels.
Functionally, it adds heated, power towing rearview mirrors measuring 7 by 11 inches, with additional flashers and integrated approach lighting, as well as an electronic trailer brake module.
The difference in cost versus the Tradesman reflects these additions. It is often chosen by someone who wants a well-rounded truck without aiming straight for luxury.
Starting price$65,240**2027 RAM 3500 Laramie: price from $87,040**
The Laramie marks the entry point to upscale comfort. The 3500 interior in the Laramie trim features heated front seats with leather-upholstered surfaces, a leather-wrapped heated steering wheel, a 10way power driver's seat, and a 6way front passenger seat. Dual-zone automatic air-conditioning rounds out the picture.
For 2027, it also gains expanded RamBox availability and new body-colour fender flares.
The RAM 3500 pricing in Laramie reflects this step up in comfort, between the Big Horn and Limited.
Starting price$87,040**2027 RAM 3500 Limited: from $96,690**
The Limited represents the pinnacle of comfort in the RAM 3500, just below the Limited Longhorn. Premium leather, advanced driver assistance technologies, and a touch screen up to 14.5 inches (36 cm), the largest in its class, with an exclusive interactive passenger display.
Careful well thought-out presentation down to the smallest details, designed to let you drive in comfort and efficiency.
Starting price$96,690**2027 RAM 3500 Limited Longhorn: from $97,690**
The Limited Longhorn is western inspiration at its best, at the very top of the lineup. Rich leather, visible stitching, wood accents. A warm presentation that stands out both inside and out.
The RAM 3500 colours for the Limited Longhorn lean on warm and sophisticated tones, consistent with this premium western theme.
This is the trim for someone who wants a truck with character that does not go unnoticed, no matter the dimensions and the chosen RAM 3500 configuration. On that note, it is offered in Crew Cab or Mega Cab for even more space.

Can the 2027 RAM 3500 tow a job site trailer without additional equipment?
Maximum towing is achieved with the appropriate equipment and the right configuration. With the 6.4 L HEMI, you can already tow up to 18,140 lb*. With the Cummins HO, it rises to 37,020 lb*. To know exactly what you need for your site, the best option is to talk with a Paillé advisor.
What is the difference between cab configurations for daily work use?
A Regular Cab (8 ft cargo bed) maximizes cargo space, which is ideal if you often drive solo. A Crew Cab (with 6 ft 4 in or 8 ft cargo bed) adds room for the team. A Mega Cab, offered in 4x4 only, pushes rear-seat comfort even further for long days on the road.
Does the price include delivery and PDI fees?
No. The price shown is the starting MSRP, before freight, administrative fees, and other applicable charges. For an exact all-in price, the best move is to submit a personalized financing request with a Paillé advisor.
Does the RAM 3500 hold its value well at resale?
Reviews of the RAM 3500 and its resale value depend greatly on condition and adherence to the maintenance schedule. What works in its favour: the platform's overall toughness and the new RAM warranty*** of 10 years or 160,000 km, a long-term confidence factor for a future buyer.
Is a RAM 3500 diesel more economical long term than a gas model?
For a long time, the automatic answer was yes. Today, it is more nuanced. The 6.4 L HEMI has made marked progress in reliability and costs less to buy and maintain for basics (no DEF, a less demanding particulate filter than the diesel). The Cummins remains advantageous for those who tow heavy on a consistent basis. The right choice depends on your actual use. That is where a conversation with a Paillé expert will make your decision easier.
