Key Features of the 2027 RAM ProMaster
3.6L Pentastar® V6 Engine and TorqueFlite® FWD Transmission
The powertrain is one of the most important parts of any commercial van, and the Ram ProMaster® gives professionals a proven setup built for reliable daily work. Its 3.6L Pentastar® V6 engine produces 276 maximum horsepower and 250 pound-feet of maximum torque, giving the van the strength needed for tools, inventory, supplies and upfitted equipment. Ram notes that this engine uses Two-Stage Variable Valve Lift, Variable Valve Timing, low internal friction and weight, and maximum efficiency-focused engineering. Paired with the TorqueFlite® FWD transmission, the van is designed to deliver smooth power while supporting the traction advantages of its Class-Exclusive Front-Wheel Drive. That front-wheel-drive layout is especially valuable in a commercial van because it helps provide impressive grip and traction while also contributing to maneuverability. Electric Power Steering further supports a controlled and stable drive, which matters when navigating loading areas, downtown streets, service stops or busy commercial lots. The Ram ProMaster® is also designed to help reduce maintenance interruptions, with 10,000-mile oil change intervals and an Oil Level Sensor that lets the driver monitor oil levels through the Digital Cluster Display. For business use, fewer interruptions can mean more time serving customers and completing jobs.
Maximum Cargo Space and Flexible Dimensions
Cargo flexibility is where the Ram ProMaster® truly separates itself from ordinary work vehicles. Depending on configuration, it offers up to 524 cubic feet of maximum cargo space, a maximum cargo area length of 13 feet and a maximum dynamic roof load of 330 pounds. The design lineup includes three available cargo heights and four cargo length options, allowing shoppers to select a layout that matches the way equipment, products or tools are transported. The Standard Roof Cargo Van offers 8 feet of cargo length and a cargo height of 5 feet 6 inches, while the Super High Roof Van provides 7 feet 2 inches of headroom for those who need additional vertical space for taller shipments or easier movement inside the van. Cargo length options include 8-foot, 10-foot, 12-foot and 13-foot layouts, with availability varying by 1500, 2500 and 3500 models. Width also matters, and the ProMaster® provides a 6-foot 3-inch cargo area width with 4 feet 8 inches between the wheel wells, helping accommodate large cargo and upfit systems. The passenger-side sliding door opens to 49 inches, which is helpful for loading large items such as full-size pallets. At the rear, doors swing open up to 260º and fold nearly flat against the exterior, revealing a 60-inch opening width for efficient loading and unloading.
Advanced Safety and Driver-Assist Technology
A work van spends hours in traffic, on jobsite approaches and in tight parking areas, so safety and driver-assist technology are major advantages. The Ram ProMaster® includes Forward Collision Warning with Active Braking and Pedestrian/Cyclist Emergency Braking, a system designed to send audible and visual alerts when it detects a possible frontal collision. If the driver does not brake in time, the van can automatically brake. Drowsy Driver Detection can audibly and visually alert the driver when rest is recommended, which can be especially valuable for long service routes or early-morning fleet operations. Available Active Driving Assist System, also called Level 2 Autonomous Driving, combines Lane Centering Assistance with Adaptive Cruise Control to provide a hands-on-wheel and eyes-on-road automated driving experience on safe roadways identified through sensors, radar and cameras. Available Intelligent Speed Assist uses cameras and/or GPS data to detect speed limits, display them on the full-color Digital Cluster Display and even be programmed to automatically adjust the van’s speed accordingly. Available Traffic Sign Recognition can display road sign information, while available Blind Spot Monitoring with Rear Cross Path Detection helps alert the driver when vehicles enter blind spot zones. LaneSense® Lane Departure Warning with Lane Keep Assist is also available to help alert the driver to unintentional lane drift and assist with steering correction.
Uconnect® 5 NAV and Connected Camera Technology
Modern commercial vehicles need more than cargo room; drivers also benefit from a cabin that helps manage routes, calls, apps and visibility. The available Uconnect® 5 NAV system brings entertainment and technology to the touchscreen with Wireless Apple CarPlay® support, Wireless Android Auto compatibility, Alexa Built-In and SiriusXM® with 360L. Wireless Apple CarPlay® support for iPhone® helps provide access to apps, music and more through the touchscreen without needing to plug in every time. The van also offers two intelligent instrument cluster options: a 3.5-Inch Analog Cluster Display and an available 7-Inch full-color Digital Cluster Display. For visibility, the ParkView® Rear Backup Camera provides a high-resolution view behind the van and dynamic gridlines to help guide reversing. The available 360° Surround View Camera offers views beside, behind and around most upfits, which is particularly helpful for drivers operating a van with shelving, racks or commercial equipment. The available Digital Rearview Mirror provides an unobstructed view behind the van, even when cargo or a lack of rear windows blocks a traditional mirror view. It uses an LCD monitor to display a real-time video stream from a rear-facing camera and includes Automatic Dimming Technology. Type-A and Type-C USB ports, an available 115-volt outlet and an available Wireless Charging Shelf further support a connected workday.
Crew Van Package and Work-Ready Design
The Ram ProMaster® is not limited to hauling cargo; it can also be configured to carry people and equipment together. The available Crew Van Package seats up to six and is compatible with six different High Roof Ram ProMaster® Cargo Van models. This package provides a maximum cargo length of 11 feet 2 inches and a maximum cargo width of 6 feet 3 inches, helping crews bring both team members and job materials in a single vehicle. The cargo area can offer up to 9 feet 6 inches of cargo length at full cargo height, along with 20 inches of extra space under the rear seat to allow loading of long items up to 11 feet 2 inches in length and 6 inches in height. Headliner storage gives crews quick access to tools, gear and documents, while a partition helps separate the passenger area from the cargo section and supports a cleaner, more climate-controlled cabin. Seating options include Cloth Front Bucket Seats, Cloth Front Passenger Double Bench Seat and Cloth Front Swivel Bucket Seats. Exterior details are equally practical. Enhanced available lighting includes High-Performance Halogen Headlamps and LED Headlamps and Fog Lamps, with next-generation headlamps increasing low-beam light intensity by 29% and high-beam intensity by up to 40%. A modular three-piece front fascia uses individual parts that can be replaced if damaged, helping reduce maintenance downtime.
