5.7L HEMI V8 Returns to 2026 Ram 1500—Canada Gets Its Torque Back
"Canada demanded V8 power and Ram listened. Meanwhile, the U.S. market gets another year of forced downsizing while half-ton buyers complain about towing capacity."
— Revvly Take
Ram's reintroducing the 5.7-liter HEMI V8 to the 2026 half-ton lineup in Canada after customer demand forced the issue. This isn't nostalgia—it's acknowledgment that pushrod V8s still move trucks better than whatever turbo four-cylinder was supposed to replace it. Order books are open now.
