The Ram ProMaster® 3500 is perhaps the best model in the ProMaster® lineup, which also includes the ProMaster® 1500 and ProMaster® 2500. It is a full-size van with an enormous cargo volume and high payload capacity, perfect for small businesses or even individuals who need to ferry passengers. The vehicle has a modernized design that goes beyond just aesthetics. Daily commercial drivers benefit from its technologies, safety measures, and endless possibilities.

Customization
The Ram ProMaster® 3500 is highly customizable. You can choose between a cargo van (best for transporting goods), a window van (designed for people), and a cutaway model with an open-back cab, frame, and drivetrain. Further, one can select from different wheelbase sizes, cargo lengths, and roof heights (low, high, or super-high). This level of customization makes the ProMaster® 3500 worth investing in. But remember that the price can vary depending on your selection. For instance, the ProMaster® 3500 Cargo Van Low Roof with a 136-inch wheelbase starts at $45,870.

Engine and performance
The Ram ProMaster® 3500 is front-wheel drive with a 3.6-liter V6 engine that can generate 27 horsepower. It is connected to a nine-speed automatic transmission. The van offers a smooth ride, thanks to strut front suspension, leaf rear suspension, and durable tires. You also get a decent fuel economy, which prevents the need for frequent refueling.

Interiors and technology
This is among the most important factors to consider when buying any vehicle. A few highlights of the ProMaster® 3500’s interiors are the backup camera, air conditioning, telescoping steering wheel, and headliner storage. For infotainment, you get a Uconnect 5 with a seven-inch touchscreen, AM/FM/Satellite radio, Bluetooth, a USB port, an auxiliary audio input, and steering wheel-mounted audio controls. These features may vary depending on the configuration or variant you choose.

Safety and driver assistance
The Ram ProMaster® 3500 probably has more safety features as standard equipment than Ram has ever offered on a full-size commercial van. And these are still being improved over the years. To keep the driver and passengers protected, the vehicle has side seat-mounted airbags, including the curtain airbags for the first row. Large-van buyers frequently request better visibility around the van, which is why the ProMaster® offers better visual displays and backup cameras. In addition, you get technologies that help you find parking spots and make life easier for delivery drivers whose daily routes take them through busy city streets.

Drivers of the Ram ProMaster® 3500 benefit from a driver information digital cluster display that shows essential information to help focus on the road ahead. A high-end screen shows useful vehicle statistics in color. The other safety features include rear parking sensors, ABS, driveline stability control, and anti-lock brakes. Blind-spot monitoring and rear cross-traffic detection warn the driver when another vehicle enters the van’s blind spots, allowing them to change their position. Further, lane departure warning with lane-keep assist warns you of unintended lane deviations and works to keep your vehicle going in the appropriate direction.

Other convenience features
The van offers several other convenience features, such as power door and window locks. But one technology that stands out is the windshield wipers with rain-sensing features. As soon as it rains, the Ram ProMaster® detects water on the windshield, automatically activates the windshield wipers, and sets and modifies the wipers’ speed according to the moisture level on the glass.

There is no doubt that the Ram ProMaster® 3500 is a fairly refined worker. It is a combination of smartness with strength that you never want to miss. The van drives like a moderate-weight vehicle while hauling like a heavyweight. So, go ahead and enjoy the impressive power and efficiency on your job site and get all your work done with the fastest pace and smoothness!
