Back in May, when Ram unveiled the Rumble Bee. But the base trim with the 5.7-liter Hemi V8 was missing something: the brand’s eTorque hybrid system and stop/start technology. Now Ram is completely phasing out the hybrid engine in favor of a non-hybrid version in the 2027 1500.
A Ram spokesperson confirmed the transition to Motor1 today and that the move also eliminates the stop/start feature on the pickup truck. The non-hybrid 5.7-liter V8 produces 395 horsepower and 410 pound-feet of torque in the 2027 Rumble Bee.
