Stellantis, which has its North American headquarters in Auburn Hills, is bringing back the Ram 1500 Rebel X as part of its light-duty lineup for 2026.

The “X” treatment combines exclusive off‑road technology with added comfort and performance features to create the most advanced and capable Rebel yet, all in a value-minded package that gives customers more content for less.

“The Rebel X was a customer favorite last year, so we’re bringing it back for more,” says Tim Kuniskis, head of American Brands, SRT Performance, NA Marketing, and Retail Strategy. “Rebel X hits the sweet spot of advanced tech, interior comfort and true off‑road capability, all in an aggressive looking package backed by America’s best full‑size truck and van limited powertrain warranty.”

Offered as an upgrade to the Ram 1500 Rebel with the Level 2 Equipment Group and 3.0L S.O. Hurricane Twin Turbo inline-six, the Rebel X package includes:

  • Dual-pane panoramic sunroof
  • Console-mounted leather-wrapped performance shifter
  • Steering wheel-mounted paddle shifters
  • Premium leather/vinyl bucket seats with red accent stitching
  • Red-accented glass encased “Rebel X” center console badge
  • “Rebel X” bedside graphics
  • Rough Road Cruise Control

The Rough Road Cruise Control, an advanced system only offered on Rebel X, uses adaptive speed control and adjustable steering weight to maintain off-road speed based on terrain. The system operates up to 20 mph and allows the driver to more easily focus on wheel placement and obstacles.

Other off-road content is built-in as standard, including a 1‑inch suspension lift with Bilstein front and rear monotube shocks, an electronic locking differential (E‑locker), underbody skid plates, front tow hooks, and black 18‑inch wheels with 33‑inch all‑terrain tires.

Premium features from the Rebel Level 2 Equipment Group include a 12.3‑inch digital instrument cluster, a 14.5‑inch Uconnect 5 touchscreen, and a 19‑speaker Harman Kardon premium sound system.

Class‑exclusive technologies like a 10.25‑inch front passenger interactive display and dual wireless charging pads also are featured along with heated and ventilated front seats, an eight‑way power passenger seat with lumbar, heated rear seats, and a heated leather steering wheel.

Rebel X debuts Tank Clear-Coat, a new color for select models in the Ram 1500 lineup inspired by military green.

Orders are now open for the 2026 Ram 1500 Rebel X, with pricing starting at $71,930, including destination and the Rebel Level 2 Equipment Group.
