Will Ram bring back the Dakota?

What can we expect from the 2026 Ram Dakota?
Reports indicate that the new 2026 Ram Dakota will fill in the space between the compact trucks and the midsize pickup trucks. Although we are not sure what to expect from Ram for the newly designed 2026 Dakota specifications, we anticipate it to compete with the Ford Maverick, which sells like hotcakes at Sunday brunch.
Ram Dakota models from the last production lineup were from 2011, which means any technological advances, especially with engines and drivetrains, are expected to enhance the engine options for the long-awaited return of the Ram Dakota.
When can we expect to order a 2026 Ram Dakota?
The one thing we have been kept in the dark about is the official return of the Ram Dakota, but trust us when we say that we have been waiting as long as you have. As soon as the release is hot off the press, we will give you the first look at this highly anticipated return. In the meantime, check back with us regularly for updates and news.
