Will a 2020 Ram 1500 CAI fit a 2021 Ram 1500?

I just took delivery of a 2021 Ram 1500 Limited with the 5.7L Hemi w/Etorque. As I understand it there hasn't been any changes to the engine from 2020, however the websites I've seen which include K&N only list up to the 2020 model year for the Ram 1500 still. I'm looking at getting a new Series 63 Aircharger model from K&N which is similar to the intake I had on my 4th Gen. Is there any reason it wouldn't fit?

I doubt there are any changes...just websites haven't updated yet. I just got a leftover 2020 and added this K&N filter. Just installed it this weekend and got it as an open box (I guess someone bought wrong one and returned) = sweet discount! All parts included.....looked brand new. Too soon to tell where the improved gas mileage will stop, but its about 1/2 mpg right now in just 2 days. Also added a little extra growl to the stock exhaust, but I got a Carven R-series exhaust on the way.

Thanks for the reply. I went ahead and ordered it. It's good to see you saw an MPG improvement. I had a 2016 ram 1500 2wd Sport prior to this and I was averaging about 2 MPG better. I know this truck has more options (more weight), 4x4 and the 3.92 gears but I was hoping the etorque system would cover the difference, especially considering the EPA rating is higher. My old truck did have the K&N on it so we'll see if it helps at all.
