Nothing is going well for RAM despite the important update of its 1500 van for 2025. Sales plummeted, in particular due to the abandonment of the V8 HEMI as well as the RAM 1500 Classic based on the old generation.
It is already acquired that the first will find its place in the range for the 2026 model year. Then, in order to offer more choices to buyers who want a not too expensive van, the company will add a new express version between the tradesman at the bottom of the ladder and the Big Horn just above.
His availability in Canada was confirmed to us by a spokesperson for Stellantis, Jordan Wasylyk, except that the details and prices for our market will be known on a later date.

In the United States, where orders are already open for the first deliveries this summer, the RAM 1500 Express 2026 offers a double cabin (Quad) or multiplaces (CREW) as well as two or four-wheel drive. Five body colors, a black grille outline, about no badge and 20 -inch rims are part of the equation, to which a black set can be grafted.
Under the hood, no V8 but rather the 3.6 -liter Pentastar V6 (305 horsepower) as a standard engine, while the 3 -liter twin -turbo (420 horsepower) is optional.
Surprisingly, the RAM 1500 Express is not one of the 25 new products that the brand’s owner, Tim Kuniskis, promised to announce between June 8, 2025 and the end of 2026. One of the most anticipated is certainly the intermediate van which will be produced in Illinois from 2027.
