Ram Will Launch Two New SRT Products ‘In the Coming Months’


Earlier this year, Stellantis made major changes to its North American operations. Tim Kuniskis, who returned in 2025 to retake the top spot at Ram, became the head of the automaker’s American brands and announced the return of the SRT division. And according to the automaker’s earnings presentation, we’ll see the results of that revival very soon. 

On page 19 of Stellantis’ Q3 shipments and revenue report, it states that Ram will introduce two SRT products within the next three months. During the call, Stellantis CEO Antonio Filosa said:   

‘Lastly, Ram will be showing even more of its trademark passion with two new SRT performance products to be revealed in the coming months, each with utterly distinct value propositions.’ 

Those two new SRT products will be part of a larger product assault that will begin with the 2026 Dodge Durango SRT Hellcat, which goes on sale later this year. According to Filosa, “This will be the first of several SRT products that we will launch in the coming years.” The presentation, page 13, notes that Stellantis will launch “multiple SRT products” by 2030.   




Stellantis is shifting its focus back to combustion engine production as interest in electric vehicles stagnates. The automaker introduced the Hurricane 4 Turbo earlier this week in the 2026 Jeep Grand Cherokee. It’s a 324-horsepower turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine.   

And a few months ago, Ram announced the 5.7-liter Hemi V-8 would return as an option for the 2026 1500. Kuniskis admitted the brand made a mistake, and now the automaker expects the engine to account for more than 25 percent of sales.  

With two new SRT products on the way, the V-8 is likely to play a significant role.   




In April, Kuniskis announced that the brand would hold 25 production announcements by the end of 2026, and the return of the Hemi was the first of those. There have been hints that Ram will resurrect the TRX at some point, which used the supercharged 6.2-liter Hellcat V-8 engine.   

It doesn’t appear Stellantis is designing all-new V-8 engines and is instead updating its lineup to work with the automaker’s new STLA architecture. That’s what Kuniskis tasked former SRT chief engineer Daryl Smith with last year to get the Hemi back into the Ram.

Now with an SRT division back and working on new products, we’ll see what’s coming next, but it appears Stellantis is attempting to correct its mistakes.
