We can't wait to show it to you-- this full-size cargo van is every business owner’s dream. Available in several different body styles that ably address the specific needs of different businesses, the 2017 RAM ProMaster also offers gasoline and diesel engine options, a functional interior, an optional in-van internet connection, and a payload capacity that tops out at a very healthy 5,160 pounds.
That excellent payload max is directly related to the power of the two engines the 2017 RAM ProMaster is privy to: a standard 3.6L V6 gasoline engine that’s capable of 280hp and 260 lb-ft of torque, and an available 3.0L 4C turbodiesel engine that’s rated at 174hp and 295 lb-ft of torque. Both engines match with a six-speed automatic transmission and a front-wheel drive system that’s one of the best in the cargo van class, facilitating a tight turn radius and superb low-traction ability.
In addition to its versatile powertrains and grade-A FWD system, another standout feature you’ll enjoy on the 2017 RAM ProMaster Cargo Van is its short hood. This is a direct result of the aforementioned FWD system, and the advantages of the short hood are superior visibility and an easier time of executing snug turns.
With three trims to choose from and three different wheelbases available, along with the option to select an extra-long body configuration and a high roof, there’s a very good chance you’ll find a 2017 RAM ProMaster setup that fits your needs to a T. Let’s talk further about what exactly those needs are, and how the RAM service center at Hall Chrysler Dodge Jeep® RAM Virginia Beach is well-suited to support your cargo van purchase!
