+Zach Henry Tesla's cost a lot. and batteries aren't any better for the environment than gas. The battery itself is fine, but the creation of it is no better than what comes out of gas cars as they drive down the road

[@mynameisntimportant9341]

[@khalidmuhammad1991]

True, and with the price of Tesla you can buy a brand new 6.2 Dually Denali with enough gas to take you from here.... to the moon is not that better than Tesla ?!!!!

[@jayelbee1111]

The reason why Mopar is popular among muscle car enthusiasts is simply because of the legendary Hemi engine. The engine is an icon. They can still make the engine, all they need to do is improve the emissions and fuel economy. Getting rid of the Hemi engine will make the Chrysler, Jeep, Ram, Dodge and especially SRT brand a joke.

[@davidmacphee8348]

I had a 190HP, 270 fpt Vette for a long time. Before that, I drove a 401 CI Nailhead, Buick Wildcat. (325 HP 445 Torque.) I would get another like it in a flash if I could. "Magic Carpet Ride" I wound up with a little four banger minivan for my family. Now we are talking! That '89 Chrysler Turbo Van would "BLOW THE DOORS OFF" my '73 Vette ( If I took out the back row seats to clean up.)

[@oldapple101]

The final day of the Hemi V8 will be a sad day for the motor world. My 2004 Ram 1500 has the 5.7 Hemi and not only has it consistently delivered excellent reliability (having 264,000 miles on it and still going strong) but the performance to this day is still fantastic. It has just enough life left in it to fool me into thinking I'm behind the wheel of a performance car, and the sound is to die for. No twin turbo V6 will ever be able to replicate the distinct sound of a mighty V8, which is the sad yet inevitable truth. The Hemi will always have a special place in my heart

[@paulespinosa6832]

Tom Castaldi Amen brother same here Hemi power for life

[@JustAboutToEat]

Couldn't they meet emissions just by producing fewer engines? They don't have to stop all together

[@wutdafeezy]

Too many issues but you are right. Nostalgia

[@PotatoeJoe69]

It is 2021 now and not only is the HEMI not going anywhere, but we have more versions of it than ever, and they are putting it in everything from Jeep Grand Cherokee a and Dodge Durangos, to Ram pickup trucks and Hellcat Challengers and chargers.

[@murtlethefertileturtle6732]

Well 2019 and its still here sooooo

[@dennyarcano2470]

I am a proud owner of a 2011 RAM truck, i love the confort of the truck and the amazing torque of the hemi!!! Gentle but powerful, always ready and pulls crazy strong, not like my Astra h opc 2.0 turbo but for a natural aspirated engine is amazing. With a lpg system is also in europe really economic (our gasoline costs around 1.5 €/liter!!) And you can repair it at home with patient and good ability. God bless the Hemi and the USA for this incredible invention. Cheers from Italy

[@victhebric66]

Just took delivery of my 2017 Dodge Challenger R/T with the 5.7L HEMI. I'm so glad and proud to have one in my possession before the muscle car era disappears forever.

[@CJColvin]

You could thank the US government for this.

[@robc8468]

Specifically Obama and the DNC and the fake global warming agenda and the fake peak oil theory. Irony alert back when Obama was younger and getting started in politics guess what he drove? Yep a Chrysler 300 with guess what a Hemi....

[@BeingMe23]

Nope... Like I posted. Automakers have stockholders that want low cost investment with high return. The increase in mpg could easily be done. But people want cheap hp etc. This has always been a issue since the EPA started up the CAFE standards.

[@Widebody20]

Yes you can thank our shadow government.

[@OsbornTramain]

I'm glad I bought a Challenger RT Shaker last Fall!!!!! I'm going to keep it for ever!

This is going to make muscle car fans really angry.

[@reaper_death23]

[@carlcampbell6827]

+doctorbimmer - Are you an automotive publication writer or something? Is the current V8 with the "Hemi" designation a Daimler-Benz design? This could be good thing if true.

[@dieseldog00]

My wife has it in her van. It's a high-revving engine and very reliable. She's had no trouble with it in over 60k miles and I attribute that to regular service per manual.

[@stevencash3774]

the emissions standards need to stop. cars burned clean enough in 03 we don't need to get anymore strengent. It's directly making cars get worse MPG and making them ever more expensive.

[@brochachoiii6657]

Steven Cash the EPA actually requires higher mpg. That's why you get a gas guzzles tax if your car doesent meet a certain mpg rating. Without restrictions on car companies, climate change would be that much more impactful. I say keep it up and maybe we can have a clean earth for once. The tragedy is it's going to be take a major crisis for people to realize it instead of starting now.

[@Hats1976]

Dodge has announced just not long ago that it's v8's are going nowhere. Gas is 2.19 a gallon and the v8 gets 25mpg. that would be kind of dumb to drop the Hemi now. With Trump in office, the American v8 won't be disappearing any time soon.

[@mrfuriouser]

That seems a popular reply amongst the young; however, popular does not make it correct. California's ( and Obama's ) addiction to this ersatz idea of saving the planet through slightly lessened emissions is foolish. Be mindful, don't follow the crowd, do your own research. You will find modern pushrod engines extremely reliable, well-performing and thoroughly high-tech. Go see for yourself.

The late model Hemi's just don't have the same excitement the original ones had back in the 60's to 1970. Those days it was extremely rare to see one and when you did it was only in a sporty muscle car. When one of those drove into the local drive in restaurant where the gearheads hung out in those days it got everyone's attention and everyone had to go take a look at it. Now days they are a dime a dozen and come in all kind of Dodges. Nothing to get to excited about. The legend of it went away with the original muscle car era.

[@emph66]

@1951RKP - The original HEMI's were rare indeed, and always drew a lot of attention. If memory serves me; the HEMI engine was approximately a $1000 premium on a car that sold for about $3000. Not many people could afford it but looking back is was probably one of the best muscle car bargains ever.

They fail to mention about the oiling problem and #8 rod failure the durability and longevity of the 5.9 LA and it was supposedly a replacement for the 8.0 V10 by selling 345 horsepower over the 300/310 that the 8.0 made what it liked also was the 450ft# of torque by the 8.0 in my book as 35 years as a mopar enthusiast and mechanic the only good that came out of the diamler venture was they brought back rear wheel drive

[@01trsmar]

Chrysler was bringing back the rear drive car before Daimler came along....Look at the concepts in the 1990's,the 1999 300 HEMI Convert...The production Plymouth Prowler was rear drive and Viper before Daimler came in...Many other concepts were made before Daimler came in...

@Tim Link - The 426 was technically a true Hemi, and Chrysler supposedly lost money on every one they built - very expensive engine to make. The engines they're calling "Hemis" today are not true hemis but few know or even care. They are the ones that still believe Chrysler invented the Hemi, which they clearly did not.

[@d.c.rhodes66]

The current Hemi has been bastardized compared to the Hemi of the 60's. The Hemi from the 60's was basically a detuned race engine, made to run on the street. The new Hemi is a truck engine with low end torque. It will never be a race engine because that is not it's forte. Running in a truck pulling a trailer is what it's good for..

That's the whole point! When will FCA start taking quality and reliability seriously? Probably never! It would really be nice if these beautiful Mopars were also known for reliability. In our dreams...

[@williamcharles9480]

There was something that I observed about Mopar, even before the Fiat buyout that was a source of great disappointment to me. The quality of Mopar products was poor even during the Mercedes-Benz era. Benz treated Mopar like it was that red headed stepchild at Christmas, just as the Italians have. It's almost as if the love affair between the Germans and Italians that existed before and during WW II is still maintained and Mopar, an American product is purposely meant to be left out in the cold. They'd prefer to lose money with the American labeled product than to incorporate up to date manufacturing facilities and technology in it. My gut feeling is that Chrysler products are going to be history before too long. The Ram truck line may survive for a while, but as for the cars, they're going to be gone. Whatever engines will be placed in the Rams is anybody's guess. The Cummins Diesel may survive, but gas engines will probably be some kind of pieced together imported Fiat junk. Pieced together so that it will pass US emissions regs. Then we're going to have Trump's import tariffs to deal with. God only knows what kind of effect that's going to have if the majority of the Chrysler vehicles contain mostly imported parts. It may be the death of Chrysler.

[@thagreen72]

my 5.7HEMI had over 230,000mi on and still ran strong up until they day my DURANGO was stolen. insurance wouldn't take care of mechanical issues such as the trans & my rear was blown out. blamed it on normal wear tear because of the high mileage on the '05. really good power plant, wouldn't be surprise if the 5.7 aftermarket highly sought after, like Ford 5liter & GM LT-LS's

[@roni1976]

FYI all V8s is going away and replaced with V6 with turbos

I'd rather electric than a crappy TT V6

[@JoseMartinez-jw2dy]

Yeah why would they follow ford path ,craptor v6 turbo.,people want v8s ,

[@michaelelliott289]

The newer Hemi's are having issues for sure, and I've been a Hemi guy since forever. It should be said Hemi's are having lifter/ bearing issues.

I absolutely love my 5.7 hemi in my 2011 jeep! A totally awesome engine!

[@akossandor469]

v6 will never be the same as v8 yes the new bi turbo v6 designs are nice but rotating mass goes a long way in a pick up truck that is used for work we know a well maintained v8 can hit half a million miles regularly judgment is still out on the v6s long term durability .

[@engineman8422]

That's a Damming blow, I seriously love Hemi's even though I am from England UK. I have been a Fan of Chargers, Challengers and Ram Trucks, even the new gen Durango for some time now. Sure Mercedes-Benz, AUDI and BMW's can do the same job with smaller size V8's & V6's, But none can quite beat a HEMI experience with that Hot sound and feel. In short it'le never be the same again, "The End Of An Era".

[@tortminator3675]

Hemi will live on forever

[@derbyjr]

Ford did not "replace" the Coyote V8 with its EcoBoost. They simply offer the EcoBoost as another option. The V8 is still by far and away Ford's most popular single engine offered in the F-150 trucks. If I know Ford, and if I know the fans, any amount of money will say that there will be a point where the F-150 is offered with an EcoBoost V8. It wouldn't be the craziest thing, I mean 2019 is supposed to see a hybrid F-150.

[@nicholascremato]

Trump says he will relax the standards so Americans can buy what they want!

Right. If not other country is suffering, why should we?

I disabled the MDS on my 06 hemi with a tuner, best decision I ever made. I want a v8, not a v8 sometimes.

[@snek9353]

Why, the MDS turns on and off seamlessly.

[@travfdy]

let it die. my 5.7 V8 didn't have 94,000 miles on it before the check engine light came on and the dealer said it needed a camshaft and lifters. $4000 in parts and labor at the dealership on an engine that hasn't hit 100,000 miles. pathetic.

[@427ci3]

travfdy stay away from the dealer

[@michaelwise6970]

I am your father ! why stay away?.. they work on the same cars every day they know what they're doing and especially if your car is under warranty you don't have to pay for anything and best part is they let me choose from a couple different models loaner cars for free till my car gets fixed.. but I kind of get what you mean if you don't have a warranty the dealership can be way more expensive

[@427ci3]

Michael Wiseguy dealers are greedy and they will always over charge, if you're under warranty then you're legit, once the warranty is over then you gotta take it elsewhere. either do it yourself like me or take it to a independent garage.

[@michaelwise6970]

I am your father ! yeah that's for sure once the warranty is up its best to go somewhere else and yes if it's something simple like oil change, tune-up, brakes... but that's about it because with all this new technology, computers they have in all the newer cars most of the time they need a freaking laptop to plug in to fix anything.. sometimes I miss the good old days.

[@427ci3]

Michael Wiseguy you can get a handheld obd2 reader for starting $15 , save a trip to the auto shop.

[@HM2SGT]

I have a 2011 Challenger SE & 2011 SRT8 Challenger. They’re both great! I haven’t liked a motor as much as that Pentastar since the 3L six-cylinder boxer in my Subaru XT6 in 88. Some days I miss being able to change your cam and have a mild lope and have that wonderful big block rumble like my 71 Riviera 455, but getting 23 miles to the gallon with a nearly 500 hp engine soothes that pain LOL! If I had to choose between the two of them I guess I take the 392, but I would miss that Pentastar.

[@upsidedowndog1256]

There are much better combustion chamber designs now, more power and lower emissions.

[@novaman3509]

Anthony Butera Wrong! The HEMI head has the best flow numbers of any American car, with the 5.7 heads flowing 340cfm, or more! To give you an idea, Chevy's 6.2L LS cylinder heads flow about 280cfm! The HEMI's draw back, is its tiny camshaft. The 5.7 is only 395hp, because Chrysler wanted power, and fuel efficiency. Massive head flow, high compression, tiny camshaft. This is why the 5.7 responds so well to an aftermarket camshaft. A good camshaft (and subsequently, valve springs and a good tune) can bump the 5.7 HEMI to 450-480hp.

[@novaman3509]

Anthony Butera It's an efficient enough design that Porsche, Audi, VW and Ferrari copied many of their cylinder head designs off of the Chrysler Hemi -- with some variations and tweaks, of course.

[@upsidedowndog1256]

NovaMan 350 Yes, it has worked very well for 85 years or so, but this year even Harley Davidson finally abandoned it reluctantly to be able to pass newer emissions regulations. They have the most advanced fuel injection system there is except for formula one, just to keep the old tech aircooled pushrod hemi head emission compliant. until now.

[@novaman3509]

Anthony Butera I can't claim to be an expert on Harley Davidson cylinder heads, but what I can see from the pictures shows that their older combustion chambers were definitely not hemispherical. The roof of the combustion chamber, in between the valves, is slightly rounded, but that's the only resemblance of a Hemi head I can see there. Their new head design seems to be a penthouse design. I imagine the switched too a penthouse because they went to 4 valves per head, over 2. With the old head design, it appears impossible to have 4 valves.

[@upsidedowndog1256]

NovaMan 350 While you are looking, notice how Harley leaves no provisions for individual valve adjustment. The hydraulic lifters and pushrods act on a single piece rocker for two valves. That's gonna be a problem.

[@johnnykuz]

FCA has indicated that the 5.7 Hemi will continue to be available on Jeep Grand Cherokee until the 2021 model year. I just ordered a brand new 2018 Jeep Grand Cherokee w/5.7 Hemi. I'll be driving this Hemi for many years to come. BTW, I get as high as 24MPG on trips on my 2011 JGC as a result of their MDS (Multiple Displacement System) which works flawlessly to cut off 4 cylinders while cruising.

[@mcfast52]

The Hemi has been dead a long time! this engine was not a true Hemi, it was just the name, so for me, it was gone a long time ago.

[@Ebooger]

The 5.7L Hemi did NOT replace the 5.9L LA engine. That engine was discontinued by 1994, replaced by the 5.9L Magnum, which was a pretty decent mill.

[@nevanmoses7208]

Don't sleep on the pentastar, it's a great engine. A twin turbo version is something I would love to see. The Normal Aspirated pentastar is already a beast. I could imagine it would outshine the ford's ecoboost. Mopar should softly introduce the engine to the market as an alternative to the Hemi. Twin turbocharged All wheel drive challenger R/T would be nice. Dodge Stealth anybody. Come on Mopar, you have an arsenal of technology. It's time to rub the imagination crystal ball again.
