2026 Ram 1500 Pricing Will Put A Smile On Buyers' Faces
After the Tradesman, the next most expensive Ram 1500 variant is the Tradesman HFE, and it won't be getting a price hike either, retaining its $41,060 base cost. One step higher is the Big Horn trim, which carries the Lone Star name in Texas, and this goes up by $595 to $45,530 - an increase of 1.3% compared to last year. Thereafter, the Laramie still starts at $60,030, the Rebel maintains a base MSRP of $64,195, and the off-road-biased RHO starts at $69,995. If you want more luxury, the Limited starts at $75,155 and the Tungsten costs $87,075.
Note: Pricing excludes Ram's destination charge of $2,095.
It remains to be seen if Ram will continue to offer incentives to bring the price down a little (the RHO pictured above currently has a $1,000 incentive available in California, for example), but even if Stellantis decides that the pricing we see here is the final figure, buying a new Ram truck now comes with more peace of mind, thanks to a newly launched 10-year warranty that is valid for up to 100,000 miles.
Besides that, a V8 model is making its return, setting up a potential fight with Ford's new F-150 Lobo street truck, and the outrageous TRX is also set to stage a comeback. Unfortunately, the electric 1500 REV pickup is still nowhere to be seen, and the Ramcharger PHEV is delayed until early next year, but with Ram returning to NASCAR with a HEMI truck, internal combustion is clearly still a critical part of its identity.

I Want To Believe in the New SRT, but I Just Can't Get There Yet
The latest car news, reviews, and features. From the very core of my being, I want SRT to thrive. I grew up with Viper posters on my walls, a Viper wallpaper on my PC, Viper die-cast models on my dresser, and Viper-inclusive racing games on whatever platform I could scrape money together for. I even watched the awful Viper TV show. Of course it was bad. It debuted when I was ten, and even I figured that out pretty quick. Suffice it to say, the trickle-down marketing worked wonders on my impressionable young mind. I automatically liked anything R/T. Neons? Durangos? Not for me, maybe, but still neat. And when R/T became SRT and rumors began swirling of a revived Hemi V8, I was all ears. Dodge showed the new Charger in New York that year. I still have magazines with the coverage in a bin someplace in the basement. On its face, it was proof that Dodge had a future selling something other than Chrysler re-badges with bright red paint. But it was more than that. It was big. It was bad. It was different . In a showroom full of four-door soap bars and bulbous pickup trucks, the 6.1-liter Charger's big nostrils made it look every bit as sinister as the Viper. I should be hyped beyond belief by this week's announcement that Stellantis is reviving SRT. But I'm not; in fact, I'm struggling to feel anything at all. Don't get me wrong, I see the parallels with the early 2000s. Much like today, Chrysler (at the time, half of DaimlerChrysler) was in a weird place. The 'Merger of Equals' with Daimler was already starting to fray, but the two companies had already crossed streams with quite a bit of their development. The Dodge/Chrysler LX platform was a product of that intermingling—a Chrysler-derived chassis altered to fit several key Mercedes-Benz components, including front and rear suspension elements along with its five-speed automatic transmission. But despite its new European backers, Chrysler was somehow broke. The Charger, 300, and Magnum looked great on the road, but their interiors were low-rent even by the standards of cars costing a third less. That cost savings extended to other key components, too. Not a single one of the company's first-generation SRT-8 models shipped with a mechanical limited-slip differential. It wasn't until the second year of Dodge Challenger SRT-8 production (2009, for the record) that one finally showed up. The Charger had to wait for its 2011 redesign. The 300's performance variant was simply killed off instead, and the Magnum was gone entirely by the time things started to get interesting. But what the big Mopars lacked in capability, they made up for in pure vintage charisma. And the timing couldn't have been better. Everywhere you looked, baby boomer nostalgia was at its peak. Every old fart with a rusting '60s muscle car seemingly expected to cash it in for a down payment on a retirement home. It didn't hurt that gas was still relatively cheap, and the truck boom had American engineers all fizzed up over what else they could put big engines into. What's the saying? History may not repeat itself, but it often rhymes? But despite those harmonizing threads, that sense of excitement is missing. And maybe that's because what Dodge is proposing this time around isn't new or different. In fact, if anything, it's the literal opposite. The 2006 Dodge Charger was a melding of a new chassis with old components to create something that stood out in the showroom. This time around, it's plainly obvious that they're desperate to have anything in a showroom at all. To be fair, if I'd struck gold with the Hemi the way Mopar did with the last generation of SRTs, I'd want to tap that vein again, too. But I'm concerned there's not nearly as much left there to mine as SRT hopes. A brand-new V8 Charger was far too rich for my blood back in 2006; I had to wait 10 years for my turn at Hemi ownership. My Plum Crazy 392 was a gently-used 2013 SRT8 with the pistol-grip six-speed. It was everything I wanted it to be—big, dumb, loud, and yet somehow completely invisible to law enforcement. It was a great car, all things considered, but once the novelty wore off, my interest faded quickly. I ended up selling it to Carvana in what was effectively a break-even deal during the height of Covid. Less maintenance and insurance—money I would have spent no matter what—I only paid about $1,500 out of pocket for four-and-a-half years of ownership. But despite my fondness for it, I have no desire to repeat the experience. I get why this strategy is appealing to Stellantis; simply put, it was the last thing that worked, and there are still some within the company who remember how. And there are many out there like me who would love to see it succeed. So why not? The ramp-up of the old SRT line was so accidentally perfect that I don't think they'll be able to replicate that success. It was the right idea for the moment, and a strong enough one that it managed to survive the relentless succession of not-so-ideal moments that followed it. Maybe I'm wrong. Maybe the appetite is still there. As for me? Wake me up when there's a new Viper. Do you also like two-door sports coupes with big, dumb engines? Share your feelings with the author at byron@

Italy's Agnelli family approached by suitors for La Repubblica's publisher
TURIN (Reuters) -Italy's Agnelli family received several expressions of interest for GEDI, the publisher of Italian dailies La Repubblica and La Stampa, but no deal has been reached, a spokesperson for the family's holding company EXOR said on Thursday. Italian newspaper Il Foglio reported that EXOR, which also is the single largest shareholder in carmaker Stellantis, is considering the sale of GEDI. It added that French media group Vivendi and Greek media company Antenna Group were potential buyers. "With reference to reports regarding GEDI Group, Exor says it has received several expressions of interest in these past years, but none of them have been followed up ", a spokesperson told reporters on the sideline of an event in Turin. GEDI reported sales for 224 million euros ($263.63 million) last year, when it posted a 15 million euros loss.

Stellantis Pro One begins Cargo Box BEV production in Italy
Stellantis Pro One, the commercial vehicles division of Stellantis, has announced the start of production for the Cargo Box battery electric vehicle (BEV) at the Atessa plant in Italy. This facility is known for manufacturing Stellantis' Large Vans, such as the Citroën Relay, Fiat Professional Ducato, Peugeot Boxer, and Vauxhall Movano. The Cargo Box BEV has a cargo capacity of 18.3m3. Its interior dimensions measure 4,230mm in length, 2,032mm in width, and 2,150mm in height. Based on the Battery Electric Chassis Cab version, it delivers 410Nm of maximum torque with a power of 200kW (270hp), coupled with a 110kWh battery, allowing for a driving range of up to 323km. For customers requiring additional cargo space, the Cargo Box BEV will also be available in the L4 configuration, which increases the cargo volume to 20.5m3, with an internal length of 4,500mm and a height of 2,300mm. Stellantis Pro One has enhanced the Large Van range by introducing 22kW AC charging as standard, enabling a full charge in six hours, which is half the time required by the former 11kW solution.
