Ram TRX Set to Return with V-8 Power and Brash Off-Road Prowess
Summary
The mightyRam TRXis officially Antonio Filosa confirmed the comeback during the company's Q2 financial call, calling the supercharged V-8 truck a strong contributor to both volume and profit margins. While Filosa didn't lock in production dates, insiders cited by Mopar Insidersclaimthe new TRX could begin rolling off the line as early as January 2026.
Originally powered by a 6.2L Hellcat V-8 making 702 hp, the previous TRX set a high bar for off-road muscle trucks. With Ram CEO Tim Kuniskis now also leading Stellantis's SRT performance division, expectations are high for the next-gen TRX to raise the horsepower stakes even further. While design and drivetrain details remain under wraps, the next TRX will likely stay true to its formula: supercharged V-8 power, rugged styling and extreme off-road capability. The model's return also signals a broader strategy shift at Ram, which has confirmed the HEMI V-8 will rejoin the 1500 lineup in 2026 and teased 25 new product announcements within 18 months.
With relaxed fuel economy standards under the current U.S. administration, Ram is doubling down on V-8 performance — and the TRX is just the beginning.
