Beyond towing stats, the 2026 Ram 1500 RHO excels thanks to a potent powertrain and rugged hardware. At its core is a 3.0L high-output Hurricane twin‑turbo inline‑six producing 540 horsepower and 521 lb-ft of torque. This power is mated to an 8-speed automatic transmission that’s tuned for quick throttle response and optimized tow performance.

Plus, one of nine drive modes is “Tow,” which fine-tunes steering, throttle, and transmission mapping to support safe and efficient hauling.
