Last year, Ram hinted at a plan to launch up to 25 new products over an 18-month period in order to revive the brand’s sales. We’re seeing this plan unfold right now, and the 2025-2026 lineup is shaping up to be one of the best on the market. 

Remember those slammed, snarling, pavement-eating pickups of the early 2000s? We do too. Enthusiasts have been wondering when the street-truck era might make a comeback, and there’s been a buzz building in the truck world these past few years. Well, Ram heard the chatter, and Fox Factory and Direct Connection answered it. They’ve just rolled out a Ram 1500 engineered to live its life on asphalt. It’s old-school muscle in the modern world.

The 2026 Ram 1500 is roaring back with the iconic 5.7-liter HEMI® V-8 engine, a move that’s leaving our truck fans buzzing. It’s got original HEMI power reimagined with a modern twist, the eTorque mild hybrid system. Add that to Ram’s new “Never Stop Being American” campaign, the return of the value-packed 1500 Express trim, and an industry-leading powertrain warranty, and you’ve got a pickup that’s as much heart as it is innovation! Let’s break down these exciting updates for our Ram lovers.

Ram and Dodge have done it again! MotorWeek just awarded The 2025 Ram 1500 with top honors as Best Full-Size Truck, while the Dodge Daytona Charger earned Best Sport Coupe.

Both of these titans deliver on power and innovation to back up a stellar accolade.

The 2025 Ram 1500 has launched as a real classic turned cool.
