The existing 5.7-liter HEMI in the RAM 1500 puts out 395 hp and 407 lb-ft of torque, but Mopar has decided to kick it up with the Urban RAM concept that will debut at the 2012 SEMA show, sporting a 6.4-liter HEMI sourced from the Challenger SRT8 that makes 470 hp and 470 lb-ft of torque.

Adding to the power of the big HEMI engine, Mopar has thrown on new headers, a cold air intake, and a performance exhaust system complete with twin chrome tips. To make sure the truck can perform, a sports performance kit has been added along with SRT rotors and brake calipers.

For looks, a performance hood complete with double intakes is tacked on, along with a body kit that gives the truck a lower stance. The Urban RAM sits on 22-inch wheels painted hyperblack, while the truck itself is finished in a dark blue hue complete with a single off-center racing stripe.
