SRT’s New TRX Bloodshot Night Edition
Ram didn’t tiptoe the TRX back into the world—it kicked the door off its hinges. The 2027 Ram 1500 SRT TRX Bloodshot Night Edition arrives as the official launch model for the reborn TRX nameplate, and it’s about as subtle as a supercharger scream at full throttle. This isn’t a nostalgia remix or a softened comeback. It’s a bold reminder of what Street & Racing Technology (SRT) is all about: extreme performance, aggressive design, and zero apologies.
A Dark, Dangerous Look That Means Business
Visually, the Bloodshot Night Edition takes the already intimidating TRX and turns the intensity knob way past ten. The standout feature is its bespoke, hand-painted Blacktop finish in Diamond Black Crystal Pearl Coat, which gives the truck a deep, liquid darkness under the light. Cutting straight through that black is a Flame Red center stripe, sharp and deliberate, adding just the right amount of menace.
Along the sides, a unique splash graphic stretches from the front door through the bedside, blending seamlessly into the familiar TRX logo. It’s aggressive without being over-the-top—more “factory concept truck” than cartoon muscle. This is the kind of design that stops conversations at gas stations and makes standard TRXs look a little tame.
The attitude continues down to the wheels. Beadlock-capable wheels come standard, finished in Satin Black and paired with Satin Titanium beadlock rings. Sure, they look incredible—but they’re also a serious nod to off-road credibility. This isn’t just a truck for flexing under parking lot lights. It’s built to be driven hard, whether that’s across open desert or straight down a stretch of asphalt.
A Cabin With Purpose—and Restraint
Inside, the Bloodshot Night Edition keeps things dark, focused, and intentionally special. You won’t find loud gimmicks or flashy distractions here. Instead, SRT went for detail-driven upgrades that reward a closer look.
Red-outlined TRX badging adds contrast without overwhelming the cabin, while a glass-encased TRX badge in the center console gives the interior a premium, almost collector-grade feel. One of the coolest touches is the carbon fiber trim, which integrates red anodized thread directly into the weave. It’s subtle, technical, and very on-brand for a truck that lives at the intersection of engineering and attitude.
The Heart of the Monster: 777 Supercharged Reasons
Let’s be honest—this is why the TRX came back. Under the hood sits the supercharged 6.2-liter HEMI® HELLCAT V8, now producing an astonishing 777 horsepower and 680 lb.-ft. of torque for 2027. Those numbers don’t just lead the segment—they completely redefine it. This makes the TRX the most powerful production, street-legal, gas-powered half-ton pickup ever built.
And this isn’t some fragile, dyno-queen setup. The HELLCAT V8 has been engineered specifically for truck duty, designed to handle heat, load, and sustained abuse without flinching. Power delivery is exactly what you’d expect: instant, brutal, and wildly addictive. The supercharger whine is unmistakable, and the acceleration feels borderline absurd for something with this much ground clearance and capability.
Yet somehow, the TRX remains controllable. Credit a well-sorted drivetrain and suspension tuned to balance chaos with confidence. It’s the kind of truck that makes wide-open roads feel too short and off-road trails feel like proving grounds.
More Than an Appearance Package
What really sets the Bloodshot Night Edition apart is its role in the bigger picture. This isn’t just another special trim—it’s the launch model for the renewed TRX lineup. Ram is planting a flag here, signaling loud and clear that SRT performance trucks are back and they’re not interested in easing their way in.
The Bloodshot Night Edition sets expectations sky-high, blending outrageous power with design details that feel intentional, premium, and purpose-built. It’s all show, sure—but it’s very much all go, too.
The Message Is Loud and Clear
For Mopar fans, there’s no confusion here. The TRX didn’t return quietly, and it definitely didn’t return watered down. The 2027 Ram 1500 SRT TRX Bloodshot Night Edition is aggressive, unapologetic, and overflowing with attitude—exactly the way an SRT truck should be.
Pricing will be announced closer to launch, but one thing’s already certain: the TRX is back, and it’s here to remind everyone who runs the performance truck game.
