The 2027 Ram ProMaster City revives the small commercial van segment in America with a starting price of $39,995, including destination, the lowest MSRP of any commercial van sold in the US.

The segment nearly vanished when the Ford Transit Connect, Nissan NV200, and Mercedes-Benz Metris all left the market, leaving buyers who wanted a compact work van with no new option. Production begins in 2026, with vans reaching dealers in the first quarter of 2027\.

## Engine and Towing

A turbocharged 1.6-liter four-cylinder makes 166 horsepower and 221 lb-ft. of torque through an eight-speed automatic driving the front wheels. It targets 2,000 lbs. of towing with the available Class 3 hitch and carries over 2,000 lbs. of payload, giving it Class 2 capability in a compact footprint.

## Cargo Space and Dimensions

The ProMaster City holds more than 167 cubic feet of cargo, with a 111-inch load floor, 54-inch cargo height, and over 48 inches between the rear wheel wells, enough to fit standard 4-by-8-foot materials.

Buyers can choose rear swing doors or a segment-exclusive rear liftgate, and with nearly all vehicle systems packaged ahead of the cargo area, the box stays open for shelving and trade-specific upfits. At under 80 inches tall, it clears most urban parking garages, which Ram says no other Class 2 van can do.

## What's the Difference Between the ProMaster City Cargo Van and Passenger Wagon?

The ProMaster City Cargo Van is built to haul goods and seats two, with security panels or window options in the cargo area behind the front row.
