Who it suits. Drivers who want an all-wheel-drive pickup Buyers choosing a supercharged eight-cylinder truck Highway users who can budget for fuel
Choose this Ram when drivetrain and engine character are central to your truck decision. The all-wheel-drive layout, supercharged 6.2-liter eight-cylinder, and eight-speed automatic define how it moves. Fuel budgeting is the harder part: a 12 MPG combined rating and $6,850 annual estimate can shape ownership costs, especially for city-heavy routes. The 14 MPG highway result offers some relief on longer trips, while the 748-gram-per-mile CO2 figure puts its gasoline impact in plain view.
What it is
This 2027 Ram 1500 4WD is a pickup with all-wheel drive. It uses gasoline and sits in the EPA's Standard Pickup Trucks 4WD class.
Power comes from a 6.2-liter supercharged eight-cylinder engine paired with an automatic eight-speed transmission.
The numbers
The key figure is 12 MPG combined. That works out to 10 MPG in city driving and 14 MPG on the highway.
The 748-gram-per-mile tailpipe CO2 figure reflects the emissions rating for this gasoline powertrain.
What it costs to run
EPA estimates yearly fuel spending at $6,850. Your actual bill will depend on how much city and highway driving you do, but the 10 MPG city rating indicates heavier fuel use in urban trips than on the highway.
How it compares
Use the 12 MPG combined figure as a baseline when weighing this truck against other Ram cars or fuel-efficient pickup trucks. Its 10 city and 14 highway ratings show where its fuel use falls in your own driving mix.
Who it suits
This pickup suits a buyer who needs an all-wheel-drive truck and accepts gasoline use from a supercharged 6.2-liter eight-cylinder engine.
It also fits drivers who want a clear city-versus-highway estimate before budgeting for fuel.
Trade-offs
The powertrain's 12 MPG combined rating comes with a high estimated annual fuel cost of $6,850. City driving is rated at 10 MPG, lower than its 14 MPG highway figure.
In return, the truck combines a supercharged eight-cylinder engine with all-wheel drive and an eight-speed automatic transmission.
Verdict
The 2027 Ram 1500 4WD makes sense when all-wheel drive and its 6.2-liter supercharged engine matter more than minimizing fuel use. Plan around its 12 MPG combined rating and $6,850 annual fuel estimate. If your driving is mostly urban, the 10 MPG city number deserves extra attention. Highway-heavy use benefits from the higher 14 MPG rating, but this remains a gasoline pickup with substantial tailpipe emissions.
