Ram engineers have answered the call for a heavy-duty pickup that can haul, tow and stay in the chase. The 2027 Ram 2500 Emergency Response Vehicle is designed for government and law enforcement agencies, adding pursuit-capable hardware and legendary Ram heavy-duty capability to serve the most demanding operational needs. The 2027 Ram 2500 Emergency Response Vehicle is the first and only 3/4‑ton truck to complete the Michigan State Police (MSP) vehicle trials, delivering outstanding performance in testing scenarios designed to replicate extreme real‑world duty.

A TorqueFlite HD eight-speed automatic transmission and a selectable two-speed transfer case route power to the axles, while an anti-spin differential paired with an uprated 4.10 axle ratio enhances acceleration and power delivery (standard Ram 2500 axle ratio is 3.73).
In 0-100 mph acceleration testing, the Ram recorded times within two seconds of several lighter and smaller 1/2-ton truck and SUV competitors, posting an 8.41-second sprint to 60 mph, 13.22 seconds to 80 mph and 20.5 seconds to 100 mph. The Ram truck reached a tire-limited speed of 103 mph in a scant 0.45 miles, staying on pace with competitors.
This is a pretty cool truck. I still wish they stuffed the 6.4 into the Ram 1500.
