NEW RAM PROMASTER VANS: A CAVERNOUS CARGO HOLD, BENCHMARK

RSATILITY, BACKED WITH SERIOUS BEST-IN-CLASS ADVANTAGES.

he challenge with all-new Ram ProMaster models isn’t where to start the list of class-exclusive features and best-in-class attributes.

It’s where to finish that extensive list.

The new addition to the Ram Commercial family stands out in virtually every way, for Ram ProMaster is almost a completely different breed of vehicle. Instead of the typical rear-wheel-drive configuration, all models deliver front-wheel-drive engineering. Rather than one average engine and transmission, you have the choice of either gas or diesel power — with optimized transmissions helping to achieve enviable fuel efficiency. ProMaster Van models offer remarkable interior configurability, ultra-durable body/frame unibody construction (contributing to

All-new for the Ram family, these commercial workhorses carry the prestige of more than 30 years of powertrain development and vehicle architecture. Proven engines, state-of-the-art transmissions, ongoing refinements in body design to help minimize downtime, and innovative front-wheel-drive models that include Cutaways, Chassis Cabs and Windowed Vans — all built on the same platform — put new Ram ProMaster in a league of its own.

hen you set out to design a work vehicle that can make its mark

on the working world, you think about the rear compartment right up front. In designing the new Ram ProMaster Van, engineers were open to keeping the cargo compartment as cavernous as possible. The end result: ProMaster has numbers that stand out.

The new 2014 Ram ProMaster Vans were engineered with short dash-tofront-axle measurements that let you put more in back. Its near-vertical side walls approach an ideal 90-degrees-from-the-floor convenience.

Versatility comes courtesy of three wheelbases, four lengths and two roof heights. The available High Roof option extends interior height to provide 76 inches of floor-to-ceiling clearance. The low load floor also

delivers best-in-class

load height that measures in inches but is

appreciated in ways that are immeasurable. The interior capacity also measures up: regardless of configuration, every Ram ProMaster provides

[2]

best-in-class

cargo width between the rear-wheel housings. From

accommodating one more pallet of product to allowing flat packing of an item that would be angled against the wheel well in any other van floor;

the fact that larger items can lay flat further helps this van stand out. Where other engineers might have settled for best-in-class

cargo van payload,* for Ram ProMaster it was only the beginning.

The versatile design just starts the list of ProMaster assets. What counts big are the driving dynamics, road manners and braking capability while doing the job. Here, Ram ProMaster rules, with chassis that deliver professional-grade driveability and brakes that offer equal levels of performance and durability. The gas and diesel powertrains give you an ideal mix of horsepower and torque. Again, the Pentastar® V6 rules,

standard V6 horsepower and torque.

Put it all together, and it’s obvious: this design is all about keeping costs
