Ford is trimming $4,010 off the base price of the 2027 F-150 Raptor to match the Ram 1500 RHO — but the cheaper truck arrives with some equipment moved to an optional package.
New Delhi: Ford is cutting the starting price of the 2027 F-150 Raptor by $4,010 for the new model year, according to a dealer order guide that has surfaced ahead of the official 2027 F-150 launch. The move brings Ford’s mid-tier off-road pickup down to the same headline price as its closest rival, the Ram 1500 RHO, as the two brands keep sparring for high-performance truck buyers.
Quick Answer: The 2027 F-150 Raptor starts at $74,995 before destination, down $4,010 from the 2026 model’s $79,005, matching the Ram 1500 RHO’s price — but Ford moved some standard features to an optional $4,120 equipment package.

Price Cut, With a Catch
According to the order guide, the 2027 Raptor’s MSRP drops to $74,995 before a destination fee, versus $79,005 for the outgoing 2026 truck — a roughly five percent reduction. With the $2,795 destination charge included, that puts the Raptor at $77,790, matching the Ram 1500 RHO almost exactly. The catch: Ford achieved the cut partly by making the base Raptor’s standard Equipment Group 800A, which drops the 14-speaker Bang & Olufsen Unleashed sound system, heated rear seats, a head-up display, and power steering column adjustment. Buyers who want those features back can add the $4,120 Equipment Group 801A — which, combined with the base price, works out about $110 more than an equivalently equipped 2026 Raptor.

The Bigger Picture: A Supertruck Price War
| Truck | Starting Price (before destination) | Power |
|---|---|---|
| 2027 Ford F-150 Raptor | $74,995 | Twin-turbo V6, ~450+ hp |
| 2027 Ram 1500 RHO | $74,995 | Turbocharged inline-six Hurricane |
| 2027 Ram 1500 SRT TRX | $99,995 | Supercharged 6.2L Hemi V8, 777 hp |
| Ford F-150 Raptor R | $111,625+ | Supercharged 5.2L V8, 720 hp |
Ram brought back the supercharged TRX for 2027 with 777 horsepower, undercutting the Raptor R on price while beating it on power, so Ford appears to be defending share at the mid-tier Raptor level instead. It is not yet clear whether the flagship Raptor R will see a similar price adjustment for 2027.
AutoAkhbar Verdict
A $4,010 sticker cut sounds like straightforward good news, but the fine print matters: buyers who want the same feature set as the 2026 truck will actually pay slightly more once the option package is added. Shoppers who don’t mind losing the premium stereo, heated rear seats and head-up display, however, get a genuinely cheaper Raptor. Either way, this is a truck segment where two rivals are now pricing bumper to bumper, which should be good news at the negotiating table.
