2021 Ram ProMaster Cargo Van Review: Capable But Forgettable

Cargo vans will always be a staple of commercial fleets, so the 2021 Ram ProMaster Cargo Van has plenty of competition. With its various body and roof configurations, it can match theFord TransitandMercedes-Benz Sprintercargo vans, but they are both more powerful and able to pull heavier loads. This is largely because Ram utilizes a front-wheel-drive setup, which is quite unusual in the segment. The automaker's trademark Pentastar 6-cylinder does duty under the hood, motivating the ProMaster Cargo Van with 280 horsepower and 260 lb-ft of torque. With its novel mechanics but slightly subpar performance figures, does the 2021 Promaster Cargo Van have what it takes to keep running with the big boys?

Verdict:Is the 2021 Ram ProMaster Cargo Van A Good Minivan?

货运车不像其他车辆,不能judged by the same metrics. Yes, the Ram ProMaster may not be the most technologically advanced or mechanically capable van in the USA, but it is well-balanced and presented at a reasonable price. Its safety rating is unknown since neither the NHTSA nor IIHs have a review of the 2021 Ram ProMaster Cargo Van. Its basic consignment of driver assists is rather dismal, too. In terms of reliability, the ProMaster range has had to deal with a variety of recalls in the last two years.

If you aren't expecting too much, then the ProMaster won't disappoint you. It has an acceptable payload capacity, and the loading area is actually really easy to access. Its towing is less impressive but should be enough for most small jobs. The main problem comes when you take a look at its direct rivals like the Ford Transit or Merc Sprinter. Both are eminently more capable, and the former is actually similarly priced, too. The Ram isn't bad, per se, but it is lackluster in comparison to the rest of the market.

What Ram ProMaster Cargo Van Model Should I Buy?

You can configure your ProMaster with different wheelbase lengths and roof heights, or even more or fewer doors. It all comes down to what you need, which is highly personal. Naturally, if you want the most capability, the 3500 is the way to go, but it will cost you more and the heavier models are naturally heavier on fuel, too. Regardless of trim, we recommend throwing in the six-way driver's seat, which is a must since it's already quite hard to find a comfy position, and you may want to consider the navigation system if your drivers will be taking different routes every day. However, most modern phones have google maps or something similar, so it may not be necessary. The price of the 2021 Ram ProMaster Cargo Van starts at around $31,790, excluding destination fees, before you start playing around with the options.
