What is the Ram ProMaster City?

The ProMaster City is a compact commercial van offered in cargo and passenger forms. Its enclosed cargo area suits deliveries, service work and other jobs that call for a smaller van. In Ram’s commercial range, it sits below the full-size ProMaster. Ram became a separate brand in 2009, building on the Dodge Ram truck identity as it expanded its work-vehicle range.

Generation and timeline

The ProMaster City versions listed for the United States are associated with the fifth-generation Chrysler minivan platform, code RT, and the 2012–2015 period. Ram’s commercial catalog presented the van in cargo and passenger forms, with side and rear doors for access to the enclosed space.
