What it is

The 2027 Ram 1500 2WD is a pickup in the Standard Pickup Trucks 2WD class. It uses rear-wheel drive, a 5.7-liter eight-cylinder engine, gasoline, and an eight-speed automatic transmission.

This is a hybrid powertrain. The figure to watch is 19 combined MPG, which blends the EPA city and highway ratings for a single everyday-use number.

The numbers

EPA ratings are 17 MPG in the city, 22 MPG on the highway, and 19 MPG combined. City driving is the lower figure; steady highway travel reaches the higher one.

The truck's tailpipe output is 470 grams of CO2 per mile.

What it costs to run

Annual fuel cost is $4,000. That estimate corresponds to the 19 MPG combined rating, while your own result will follow how much of your driving is in town or on the highway.

How it compares

Use the fuel-efficient pickup chart to place this 19 MPG combined rating beside other pickup trucks. The 17 city and 22 highway figures also show how its result changes with driving conditions.

For other Ram models, the Ram car list provides another way to compare EPA figures.

Who it suits

This truck fits a buyer who wants a gasoline pickup with rear-wheel drive and a hybrid powertrain, and who can budget $4,000 in annual fuel cost.

Its separate city and highway ratings help if your routine is mostly one type of driving.

Trade-offs

The 22 MPG highway rating is higher than the 17 MPG city rating, so frequent stop-and-go use carries the lower efficiency figure. The combined result is 19 MPG.

You get a 5.7-liter V8 and pickup body, but the truck still carries a 470-gram-per-mile tailpipe CO2 figure and the stated annual fuel cost.

Verdict

Choose the 2027 Ram 1500 2WD when a rear-drive pickup and V8 matter more than minimizing fuel spending. Its hybrid gasoline setup delivers a middle-ground 19 MPG combined rating, with a clearer advantage on highway trips than in city traffic. The $4,000 yearly fuel estimate should be part of your ownership budget. Compare its figure with other pickups before deciding, especially if most of your miles are urban.
