The Hemi V8 engine, celebrated for its history in high-performance cars, is poised to return to production by August 2024, following a temporary phase-out due to emissions standards. Specifically, 5.7, 6.2, and 6.4-liter versions are expected to re-enter the market, possibly benefiting models like the Ram 1500. Although compatibility issues with the new Dodge Charger platform pose challenges, Stellantis engineers are working on integration solutions. This shift in direction may reflect changes in leadership priorities at Stellantis following CEO Carlos Tavares's resignation, potentially easing constraints on performance engineering.
