2026 Ram 1500: Frequently Asked Questions
What trim levels does the 2026 Ram 1500 come in?
The 2026 Ram 1500 offers a broad lineup, including the work-ready Tradesman, the value-styled Express and Warlock, the best-selling Big Horn (badged Lone Star in some markets), the leather-equipped Laramie, the off-road Rebel, the luxury Limited and Limited Longhorn, the flagship Tungsten, and the high-performance RHO. See which trims are in stock at Mahon CDJR in Brevard, NC.
What engines does the 2026 Ram 1500 offer, and is the HEMI V8 back?
Yes, the 5.7L HEMI V8 returned for 2026 by popular demand. It makes 395 horsepower and 410 lb-ft of torque with eTorque mild-hybrid assist and is available across most trims. It joins Ram's 3.0L Hurricane twin-turbo inline-six, offered in Standard Output (420 hp) and High Output (540 hp) forms. The light-duty EcoDiesel V6 has been discontinued and is not offered on the 2026 Ram 1500.
What's the difference between the Hurricane Standard Output and High Output?
Both are 3.0L twin-turbo inline-six engines. The Standard Output Hurricane produces 420 horsepower and 469 lb-ft of torque and is the strong all-around choice for most drivers. The High Output Hurricane steps up to 540 horsepower and 521 lb-ft, powering the top Limited, Limited Longhorn, Tungsten, and RHO trims.
Does the 2026 Ram 1500 come in a diesel?
No. The 3.0L EcoDiesel V6 that was previously offered has been discontinued, with the last units built in early 2023. For 2026, the Ram 1500 lineup is built around the efficient Hurricane twin-turbo inline-six and the returning 5.7L HEMI V8, so there is no diesel option on the current half-ton.
What is the Ram 1500 RHO?
The RHO is Ram's high-performance, off-road half-ton, positioned as the successor to the TRX. It uses the 540-horsepower High Output Hurricane inline-six paired with an aggressive suspension, wide track, and 35-inch tires for desert-running capability. It's the choice for buyers who want maximum performance and off-road hardware in a 1500.
How much can the 2026 Ram 1500 tow?
When properly equipped, the 2026 Ram 1500 can tow up to about 11,610 pounds with the Standard Output Hurricane. The returning 5.7L HEMI V8 is rated up to roughly 11,320 pounds, and the High Output Hurricane up to around 10,000 pounds. Maximum towing depends on cab, bed, axle ratio, and equipment.
What is the 2026 Ram 1500's gas mileage?
In a 4x2 Crew Cab, the Standard Output Hurricane inline-six is EPA-rated at about 18 mpg city, 25 mpg highway, and 21 mpg combined on regular fuel, edging out the returning HEMI V8, which lands near 19 mpg combined. Figures vary with 4x4, cab, and configuration.
