The compact van for all your work needs
The small but mighty Ram ProMaster City has a large cargo space in a friendly package. The five-seat Wagon has standard features for passenger comfort, while the Cargo version sacrifices the second row of seats for a massive cargo floor. Standard and optional features add flexibility to your work, such as standard D-rings in the floor and available folding shelving. The ProMaster City is driver-focused, with nimble steering on tight streets, and a standard independent suspension that handles potholes with grace. Think of a ProMaster City as a work truck with a smart fully-enclosed cargo bed.

5 reasons to buy the 2018 Ram Promaster City
1. Workspace
Open the rear 60/40 split cargo doors and load up the ProMaster City with three washers/dryers. With up to 131.7 cu-ft of cargo space and a maximum estimated payload of 1,883 lbs, this is the compact that does big jobs. The nearly vertical walls are ready for your upfit, and available options like partitions and storage drawers can keep all your cargo secured.
2. Out-of-office
If you’re heading to an unfamiliar town, keeping in touch with coworkers, or need to send an invoice, the driver’s seat is an excellent mobile office, when parked. When it's time to get going again, the available five-inch Uconnect® touchscreen has turn-by-turn navigation for unfamiliar streets.
3. Two body styles
Pick your style depending on your work van needs. The Cargo version is a two-seat work van with a low and flat cargo floor. The design allows a standard pallet to fit between the wheel wells. The Wagon is designed for you if you need to haul people with their cargo. The addition of a second row of fold-flat seats brings seating capacity up to five, with standard acoustic headliner and carpet, plus power rear windows.
4. Compact powerhouse
The ProMaster City has enough horsepower to keep up with urban traffic and enough torque to move your heavy cargo with ease. The 2.4L inline-four cylinder makes 178 horsepower and 174 lb-ft of torque for climbing hills or carrying five-gallon buckets of paint. It can tow your utility trailer, with its maximum estimated towing capacity of 2,000 lbs when properly equipped.
5. Standard work ready
The ProMaster City has standard in-roof receptacles for all your cargo management needs, fitting Mopar® or aftermarket cargo carriers. The standard backup camera has grid lines to show where you’re going when backing up to a dock or trailer. Standard tie-down D-rings (for in Wagon, six in Cargo) assist in securing large cargo. Standard Bluetooth® connectivity keeps you in touch with your crew, while standard air conditioning lets you bring them with you on the job.
