Ram has opened up order books for the 2025 ProMaster EV cargo van in the United States before it lands in dealerships in the second quarter. It will be offered in two different versions and is actually the first EV from Ram to actually hit the market. However, this being a large cargo van with the drag coefficient as woeful as a beluga whale, it doesn’t have a particularly impressive driving range.

Prices for the ProMaster EV start at $56,495, excluding a $1,995 destination fee. The standard cargo van version is offered with a 12-foot cargo area and an extended 13-foot cargo area, both of which share the same 159-inch wheelbase. Each ProMaster EV cargo variant also has a rated payload capacity of 3,020 pounds (1,369 kg).

Ram also offers the new ProMaster EV in Step Van guise. This model is much pricier, starting at $69,995, excluding destination. It comes standard with the usually-optional Safety & Convenience Group as standard, but the payload has been reduced to 2,876 lbs (1,304 kg).

The Powertrain

All 2025 Ram ProMaster models come with the same 110 kWh battery pack under the floor. This motor drives a single electric motor with 268 hp and 302 lb-ft (409 Nm) of torque, all of which is driven through the front wheels. The regular Cargo Van version offers 164 miles (264 km) of range while the Step Van ups that to 180 miles(290 km). Neither of those figures is impressive compared to consumer-focused EVs, but they’re better than the 159-mile (256 km) range of the 2025 Ford E-Transit.

“Our freedom of choice approach with powertrain extends to the Ram Professional lineup with an appropriate solution for last-mile delivery in the Ram ProMaster EV,” Ram boss Tim Kuniskis said of the new model. “With front-wheel drive and a low step-in height, the ProMaster is a solid player and continues to perform well in a wide variety of business sectors such as the growing home delivery environment, construction services wholesale & IT Services among others.”
