“We screwed up”: Ram returns a 5.7-liter V8 Hemi motor

The head of the RAM brand Tim Kunisksis admitted that the company made a mistake by abandoning the V8 Hemi engine with a volume of 5.7 liters. The car manufacturer listened to the opinion of customers who asked to resume the production and sale of cars with a powerful “eight” and opened the reception of orders on RAM 1500 with a hybrid installation of the Hemi V8 Etorque. For dealers, such pickups will appear this summer.

The fact that Stellantis is folding the production of the Hemi V8 engine with a volume of 5.7 liters was announced a year ago, and since then RAM customers have been deprived of their choice: the Burricane Burricane alternative has not been since 2024. Against this background, for the first time in a decade, RAM 1500 dropped below the third line in the ranking of the best -selling cars in the USA.

In the spring of this year, insiders found that Stellantis not only returned to the V8 Hemi conveyor for his passenger line, but also intends to increase their production volumes by summer. Now it is officially confirmed that the cult “eight” has again become available to RAM 1500, with Hybrid Etorque technology. The unit develops 400 horsepower and 555 Nm of torque.

Pickups with Hemi V8 will cost $ 1,200 (or about 100 thousand rubles) in the American market more than a modification equipped with a 309-horsepower engine.

Meanwhile, the media do not exclude the return of RAM 1500 with the V8 Hemi engine with a volume of 6.2 liters. However, there is no confirmation of this yet.
