Stellantis clearly did itself a major disservice by discontinuing its iconic line of V8 engines. But there have been endless rumors , and even public speculation from upper management , that the company wanted to correct that mistake and restore some goodwill with ardent Mopar fans.

Stellantis is ready to rev up V8 production this summer, according to a new report. The rumor mill has been churning out tidbits in recent weeks that all point to Ram bringing Hemi V8 engines back to its light duty truck lineup soon.

All three variants of the Mopar V8—the 5.7-liter, 6.4-liter, and Hellcat—will supposedly be built at the manufacturer's Dundee Engine Plant in Michigan.
