Ram’s 2027 2500 ERV Is the First Pursuit-Ready Heavy Duty Pickup​

Combining Pursuit Performance with Real Heavy Duty Capability​

Ram is stepping into new territory with the introduction of the 2027 Ram 2500 Emergency Response Vehicle (ERV), a purpose-built truck designed to meet the demands of law enforcement, fire departments, and emergency response teams. What makes this truck stand out isn’t just its Heavy Duty capability—it’s the fact that it’s the first ¾-ton truck engineered to handle pursuit scenarios while still delivering the towing and hauling strength Ram is known for.

 
The Ram 2500 was not scoring as good as its competitors that were being tested. I doubt it will be a favorite as a patrol vehicle. I can see Departments maybe getting one or 2 for specialized tasks like search and rescue or ADOT enforcement that need some payload to carry equipment.
 
What would make it interesting is if RAM used the opportunity to make the trucks resistant to water depth capability - "top of the tires".

So no special maintenance after doing it - just resistant and capable as a non issue.

Probably would require the diesel to pull it off, as well as connector upgrades inside and out.
