2022 Ram Promaster City in High Point,, NC - $0

Introduced to the American marketplace in 2015, the front-wheel drive ProMaster City joins the larger Ram ProMaster and popular Ram C/V as a Class 1 van offering. The Ram ProMaster City is designed to compete with compact commercial and passenger vans with best-in-class attributes in the areas that count: payload capacity, cargo area, performance and fuel economy.

For 2018, upgrades include a Uconnect 3 radio with five-inch touchscreen, Bluetooth connectivity and backup camera as standard equipment. Additionally, sliding and back door window grates are available in Cargo Vans without partition.

The Ram ProMaster City is available in two-seat Tradesman cargo van and five-seat passenger Wagon configurations, and base and SLT trim levels. Power is generated by a 2.4L Tigershark four-cylinder engine. The Tigershark engine is bolted to a 948TE nine-speed automatic transmission.

The foundation of the ProMaster City is a steel unibody design. The unibody architecture helps minimize curb weight, a key contributor to its best-in-class payload capability. The front axle uses a proven, durable and compact MacPherson strut suspension, tuned for rougher North American roads and class-leading payload capacity. In a departure from standard practice in the Class 1 van category of using rear leaf springs, the Ram ProMaster City upgrades to an independent, coil-sprung bi-link rear suspension. The rear suspension incorporates a category-unique independent bi-link configuration that increases driving comfort, enhances stability, and ensures maximum safety characteristics in all load situations.

The Ram van’s hard-working credentials start with a 48.4-inch span between the rear wheel wells, the widest in the class. The width between the wheel wells provides an extra margin of capacity so that building materials and pallets can be loaded quickly and easily, without concern over whether the load fits.

Above the wheel wells, nearly vertical side panels give it a best-in-class width of 60.4 inches. Combined with an interior roof height of 51.8 inches, the result is volume of 131.7 cubic feet for the cargo van version. The vertical side panels are upfitter-friendly and simplify the attachment of shelves or storage racks for specialized commercial use.

Each side is fitted with a sliding door with a 26-inch opening to access the cargo compartment. The roof is prepped for optional load rails or roof racks with a weight capacity of 154 pounds. The rear of the is fitted with 60/40 split swing doors.

The passenger wagon version of the Ram ProMaster City is equipped with a three-passenger second row. The second-row seating is split 60/40, with each section capable of folding and tumbling forward to expand cargo room. With the seats in place, the ProMaster City passenger wagon offers close to four feet of cargo length to the rear doors. With seats folded and tumbled, Ram’s new van provides nearly six feet of cargo length.
