Since the departure of former Stellantis CEO Carlos Tavares, the Stellantis organization has undergone rapid changes. Pricing strategies are being reevaluated, electrification plans are being reconsidered, and in a surprising twist the 5.7-liter (345 cubic-inch) HEMI® V8 has been granted an extended lease on life in the Dodge Durango, according to our sources.

 
1- I guess they were able to figure out the electrical architecture on the Ram, since Tim said the Ram LCI architecture won’t support the HEMI.
2- I would not be surprised if HEMI finds its way into the new Charger.
3- Also, I would not be surprised if the 392 version and other variants follow.
 
They should give it an update before re-starting a new production line, at least enough for it to be called the 4th Gen Hemi. Its last big update (5.7) was 2009...

The V8 saves them from bankruptcy, emissions are being relaxed and Ford and GM already have successful V8 offerings. If Mopar takes a snooze, it's going to lose.
 
Guaranteed (price being the same) more people would buy a V8 charger over the inline 6, even with less power.

I’m sure there’s a lot of ecoboost owners wishing they’d paid more for the coyote.
