You may notice that this commercial van utilizes a front-wheel-drive (FWD) layout, which offers several distinct advantages for local businesses.
Lower Load Floor: The engine and transmission are mounted transversely at the front, removing the need for a driveshaft running to the rear. This design allows for a best-in-class lowest load floor of 21 inches, making it easier for your team to load heavy items or pallets.
Winter Traction: By placing the weight of the engine directly over the drive wheels, the vehicle achieves superior traction on slippery Indiana roads compared to rear-wheel-drive vans that are not carrying a full load.
You will find this proven engine across the entire Ram ProMaster lineup, allowing for parts interchangeability and simplified fleet maintenance.
Whether you require the standard roof 1500 for agility or the super high roof 3500 for maximum volume, every model uses the same mechanical foundation.
The V6 powers all variations, including the Cargo Van, Window Van, and Cutaway models designed for custom upfits.
