The Truck That Rewrites the Rules: Meet the Unstoppable 2025 Ram 1500 RHO

The Truck That Rewrites the Rules: Meet the Unstoppable 2025 Ram 1500 RHO

In the world of light-duty pickup trucks, one name has consistently pushed the boundaries of performance and capability: Ram. Today, Ram has unveiled its latest masterpiece – the all-new 2025 Ram 1500 RHO. This adrenaline-pumping beast redefines what a truck in this segment can achieve, cementing Ram's dominance as North America's off-road truck leader.


Debuting in Windsor, Ontario, the RHO expands Ram's Core/Electric/Sport approach, joining an elite lineup that includes the Ram 1500 Warlock, Rebel, Ram 2500 Heavy Duty Rebel, and the legendary Power Wagon. However, the RHO stands in a class of its own, elevating the meaning of "sport" to stratospheric new levels.


A Hurricane of Power 


At the core of the RHO's prowess lies the all-new 3.0-litre Hurricane High Output Straight-Six Turbo (SST) engine. This engineering masterpiece cranks out a ferocious 540 horsepower and 521 lb-ft of torque, blowing away the competition's naturally aspirated V8s and boosted six-cylinders. Mated to an eight-speed automatic transmission, the RHO unleashes blistering acceleration, rocketing from 0-100 km/h in just 4.6 seconds and devouring the quarter-mile in a scant 13.1 seconds at 169 km/h. With a top speed of 190 km/h, no road or trail is off-limits.


Extreme Off-Road Prowess


While its performance numbers are enough to drop jaws, the RHO's true forte lies in its off-road capabilities. Inspired by desert racers, the RHO features a unique long-travel suspension system with adaptive damping that laughs in the face of even the most treacherous terrain. The Bilstein Black Hawk e2 adaptive shocks continuously optimize body control, while the advanced transfer case enables rock crawling and flat towing.


With a water-fording depth of 813 mm (32 inches), a maximum towing capacity of 3,801 kg (8,380 lbs), and a payload capacity of 689 kg (1,520 lbs), the RHO solidifies its position as Canada's most capable light-duty pickup truck.


Aggressive Style, Premium Substance


The RHO's menacing "hourglass" body design, flanked by composite flares stretched over 35-inch tires, announces its performance pedigree from every angle. But the RHO isn't just a brute; its interior combines authentic premium materials with cutting-edge technology that will have you questioning if this is indeed a truck.


Over 50 inches of combined digital display screens, including a class-exclusive 10.25-inch front passenger screen, provide an unparalleled level of information and control. The available 900-watt Harman Kardon audio system with 19 speakers and a 10-inch subwoofer creates an auditory experience fit for the most discerning audiophiles.


A Lineage of High Performance


While the 2025 Ram 1500 RHO represents the apex of truck performance, it draws inspiration from Ram's rich heritage of developing high-powered, adrenaline-fueled models. From the 1964 Dodge Custom Sport Special and the 1978 Li'l Red Express to the 2004 SRT-10 and the 2021 TRX, the RHO is the latest chapter in a story of uncompromising performance that spans decades.


Priced from $115,790 ($112,945 MSRP plus destination) in Canada, with orders open now and deliveries expected in Q3 2024, the all-new 2025 Ram 1500 RHO is poised to reset the benchmark for what a light-duty pickup truck can achieve.
