Ram Team Talks About the Return of the 5.7-Liter HEMI V8 in the Ram 1500
There are few names in the truck world that carry as much weight as HEMI®. For the past two decades, it’s been the badge of honor under the hood of Dodge and Ram vehicles, the soundtrack of muscle and muscle trucks alike. After being discontinued in 2024, fans weren’t sure if they’d ever hear that unmistakable rumble in a half-ton Ram again. But this week at Chelsea Proving Grounds in Michigan, I had the chance to see firsthand what it took to bring the 5.7-liter (345 cubic-inch) HEMI V8 back to the 2026 Ram 1500 lineup.
The HEMI®-powered 2026 Ram 1500 has officially arrived at dealerships. Just a week after we reported that trucks were leaving the Sterling Heights Assembly Plant (SHAP), these V8-powered pickups are now parked on dealer lots and ready for customers to take home.
