Off-road enthusiasts and fans of the Ram 1500 lineup have plenty to be excited about in the 2025 models. While the new RHO TRX takes center stage, there are two other trims that have just been unveiled – the Rebel X and the Warlock.
The 2025 Ram 1500 Rebel X is the range-topping version of the popular Rebel trim. In celebration of the Rebel’s 10-year anniversary, this special edition comes with a host of additional features and enhancements. It is based on the Rebel Level 2 equipment group but adds even more luxury and capability. Inside, you’ll find a 14.5-inch center touchscreen, a passenger-side infotainment screen, a panoramic sunroof, heated front and rear seats, a heated steering wheel, dual phone charging, and a premium 19-speaker Harman Kardon sound system.
One standout feature of the Rebel X is its new Rough Road Cruise Control. This innovative system not only maintains speed on rough terrain but also adjusts suspension damping and steering weight as needed. While Ram has not provided extensive details on this feature, it appears to be similar to Toyota’s Crawl Control or Ford’s Trail Control. The Rebel X also receives special logo decals, high-bolster seats, paddle shifters, and a console shifter from the G/T package, as well as red interior accents. On the outside, it boasts a 1-inch suspension lift, Bilstein shocks, 33-inch tires on 17-inch wheels, a softer rear anti-roll bar, a sport hood, black bumpers, a skid plate, LED fog lights, and other black exterior accents. Powering the Rebel X is the standard-output Hurricane twin-turbo 3.0-liter engine, delivering an impressive 420 horsepower and 469 pound-feet of torque. Pricing for the Rebel X starts at $66,190, including destination charges.
The 2025 Ram 1500 Warlock, on the other hand, aims to provide an affordable alternative for those seeking some of the Rebel’s upgrades without the higher price tag. The Warlock features a 1-inch suspension lift, a skid plate, and various black accents, including dual exhaust tips. It comes equipped with 18-inch wheels, an 8.4-inch infotainment screen, physical gauge dials, and a cloth front bench. However, it does offer a leather-wrapped steering wheel, adaptive cruise control, lane-keep assist, and blind-spot monitoring as standard. Optional features for the Warlock include heated front seats, a spray-in bedliner, and side steps. Under the hood is the base Hurricane engine, generating the same 420 horsepower and 469 pound-feet of torque. The Warlock has a starting price of $56,255.
Overall, both the Ram 1500 Rebel X and Warlock cater to different types of truck enthusiasts. The Rebel X provides luxury and added off-road capabilities for those who crave a premium experience. On the other hand, the Warlock offers a more budget-friendly option with many of the core upgrades found in the Rebel trim. With these new trims, Ram continues to deliver a diverse lineup that caters to a wide range of customers and their specific needs.
In conclusion, the 2025 Ram 1500 lineup impresses with its new trims – the Rebel X and the Warlock. Whether you’re looking for luxury and enhanced off-road capabilities or an affordable option that still offers core upgrades, Ram has something to offer. These latest additions continue to solidify Ram’s reputation as a leader in the truck market.
