2027 Ram ProMaster City Price and Specs: $39,995 Starting MSRP, 987 kg Payload
Ram has locked in pricing for the 2027 ProMaster City: $39,995 to start, with a 987 kg payload rating higher than first announced. Full trim lineup and specs inside.
Ram has turned its promised “less than $40,000” into an exact price: the new ProMaster City Tradesman Cargo starts at $37,400, plus a mandatory $2,595 destination charge. That brings the total to $39,995 — and this is the figure that should be treated as the real starting MSRP, not the $37,400 sticker.
When the model made its debut this spring, Ram only promised a starting price below $40,000. Now the full lineup is out: the SLT Cargo costs $41,495 with destination, the five-seat Tradesman Passenger Wagon is $42,695, and the SLT Passenger Wagon runs $44,195. The vans will reach U.S. dealers in the first quarter of 2027.
The powertrain is the same across every trim: a turbocharged 1.6-liter four-cylinder makes 166 horsepower and 221 lb-ft of torque (about 300 Nm), paired with an 8-speed Aisin automatic and front-wheel drive.
The practical numbers are more interesting than the horsepower figure. Ram’s current spec sheet lists a maximum payload of 2,175 lbs (987 kg) — more than the rounded 2,000 lbs (907 kg) quoted in the original spring announcement. The van can also tow up to 2,000 lbs (907 kg). Cargo volume comes in at about 167 cubic feet (4.73 m³), the load floor stretches 111.1 inches (2.82 m), and there’s 48.9 inches (1.24 m) between the wheel arches. The van stands about 77 inches (1.96 m) tall, low enough to fit into standard parking garages.
Ram has effectively filled a nearly empty gap in the market: the company itself calls the ProMaster City the only midsize commercial van of its kind currently sold in the U.S. Production is set up in Bursa, Turkey.
Price isn’t the only argument here: for $39,995, buyers get a van roughly 5.33 m (about 210 inches) long that stays under two meters tall while still hauling nearly a ton of cargo.
