HEMI® Power Is Back Where It Belongs​

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.

Will they be offered without the e-torque? That would be nice

I've found 1,545 window stickers (so far) with Hemi engines. Of those, 1,545 have eTorque.

Standard

Absolutely not!

 

[mikeru82]

Definitely not for 2026 models. All of those will have etorque. My hope is that will change for future model years but I wouldn't hold my breath on that.

I've been watching the reviews on youtube. Sounds like they've improved the exhaust sound of the hemi when you punch it, without compromising the quiet ride when cruising. I also like the new 10yr/100,000mi powertrain warranty! If I don't trade my 2019 Limited in on a 2026, I might at least look into acquiring the new exhaust. I am still loving my 2019 Ram limited!

Unless they've done anything significant it's most likely the change they made in 21 or 22 when they removed the cat from the straight pipe before the muffler. It's a direct fit for us earlier years. I have one on my truck. It does make a difference on start up and acceleration, but nothing in the cab while driving.

I was told the 2026's with Hemi's have the GT exhaust standard

Yes, this appears to be correct.

 

[H2OMAN]

Anyone know if they are running the 44-45 transfer cases?

 

[Flot]

I don't know which is worse, etorque or the aux batteries.. .either seems to be a countdown to failure
