The biggest car news and reviews, no BS. The 2027 Ram TRX SRT and SRT Rumble Bee Hellcat are indeed powered by the same supercharged, 777-horsepower Hemi V8, but the wrappers around those monster engines are quite different.
If you tell a TRX driver to go pound sand, they may not properly internalize your message. After all, that’s what a TRX is built to do—mercilessly. It’s equipped with off-road tires, comes with more standard ground clearance, and has trail-friendly Bilstein adaptive dampers designed to keep the body in check on rough terrain. There’s also the locking rear diff, which is handy in case you encounter uneven/technical terrain.
Rumble Bee, on the other hand, is built to go fast on pavement. The wheelbase is more than a foot shorter (along with the rest of the truck), so there’s less weight to carry around and the truck should change direction more quickly. It also sits lower to the ground, with a minimum ground clearance of just 8.1 inches, and the suspension will be much stiffer too. The Rumble Bee also gets a limited-slip rear differential, which is superior to a locker on-road and helps put power down more effectively when the rear end has inconsistent traction.
You can see how things shake out by the numbers; the items with differences are bolded. The other big difference between these two trucks? You can order the TRX right now (for the low, low price of just $102,790); if you want a Rumble Bee, you’ll have to wait until later this year to bring one home.
