2026 Ram 1500 Pricing Will Put A Smile On Buyers' Faces

With geopolitical tensions at a high and trade policies constantly in flux, it's difficult for automakers to prepare for higher costs without passing them on to customers. But at Stellantis, the 2026 Ram 1500 will have its MSRP largely unaffected by the new tariffs that go into effect on July 1. According to order guide data obtained by CarsDirect, the increases will be minimal and only affect a single trim, with the base Tradesman model still starting at $40,275, excluding destination. After the Tradesman, the next most expensive Ram 1500 variant is the Tradesman HFE, and it won't be getting a price hike either, retaining its $41,060 base cost. One step higher is the Big Horn trim, which carries the Lone Star name in Texas, and this goes up by $595 to $45,530 - an increase of 1.3% compared to last year. Thereafter, the Laramie still starts at $60,030, the Rebel maintains a base MSRP of $64,195, and the off-road-biased RHO starts at $69,995. If you want more luxury, the Limited starts at $75,155 and the Tungsten costs $87,075. Note: Pricing excludes Ram's destination charge of $2,095. It remains to be seen if Ram will continue to offer incentives to bring the price down a little (the RHO pictured above currently has a $1,000 incentive available in California, for example), but even if Stellantis decides that the pricing we see here is the final figure, buying a new Ram truck now comes with more peace of mind, thanks to a newly launched 10-year warranty that is valid for up to 100,000 miles. Besides that, a V8 model is making its return, setting up a potential fight with Ford's new F-150 Lobo street truck, and the outrageous TRX is also set to stage a comeback. Unfortunately, the electric 1500 REV pickup is still nowhere to be seen, and the Ramcharger PHEV is delayed until early next year, but with Ram returning to NASCAR with a HEMI truck, internal combustion is clearly still a critical part of its identity.
