FCA US 6.4L BGE – V8 petrol engine from the American FCA operating unit with 6,400 cm³ displacement and 375 hp, built 2017 to 2026, drive unit for heavy North American commercial-vehicle chassis
FCA US LLC is the American operating company of the Fiat Chrysler group, tracing back to the earlier Chrysler Group; among other things it supplies large-volume V8 petrol engines for chassis of heavy North American commercial vehicles. As across the Fiat Chrysler group generally, such engines do not go into FCA's own finished vehicles but to body and chassis builders, who turn them into ambulances, school buses or municipal vehicles.

The 6.4L BGE covered here has 6,400 cm³ displacement and, in this tuning, delivers 375 hp. The build window runs from 2017 to 2026, showing an engine generation carried through practically unchanged for almost a decade.
Such V8 petrol engines serve in North America as the drive for chassis-cab vehicles, on which body builders mount ambulances, school buses or municipal special vehicles; against a diesel unit, the petrol engine wins through simpler construction and lower purchase cost, at the price of higher fuel consumption per kilometre driven.
When buying one used, with such a long-running engine programme the actual build year of the individual vehicle matters most, since individual components can change over the years. Check the ignition system, intake manifold gaskets and cooling performance, since these petrol engines are heavily loaded under continuous duty in heavy bodies, as well as the body-to-chassis mounting for corrosion and loose fasteners. On vehicles with a high share of stationary running, typical for ambulances, the battery and charging system are also worth checking, since the engine often runs only briefly while parked.
