If your business runs on a van, the Ram ProMaster deserves a close look. Its front-wheel-drive layout gives you a low, flat load floor, a tall cargo box and a tight turning circle that helps on crowded job sites and narrow alleys from Addison to Elmhurst. At DuPage Chrysler Dodge Jeep RAM, 433 East North Avenue in Glendale Heights, our commercial team works with plumbers, electricians, caterers, delivery fleets and contractors across western Chicagoland to match the right ProMaster to the job.
Browse the ProMaster inventory above, then use the guides below to compare roof heights, wheelbases and trims before you call or stop in.
Front-wheel drive means no driveshaft under the cargo floor, so Ram lists a load floor as low as 21 inches. Interior cargo height reaches about 77 inches in High Roof vans and 86 inches in Super High Roof vans, so most crews can work standing up.
Ram rates the ProMaster for up to 4,750 lbs of payload and up to 524 cubic feet of cargo space in the 3500 extended Super High Roof on the 159-inch wheelbase, when properly equipped.
An integrated Vehicle System Interface Module makes it simpler to add lighting, inverters and other electrical gear. Floor tie-down rings, wall anchors, and available shelving and E-track help you organize tools, parts and inventory.
Forward Collision Warning with Active Braking and Pedestrian/Cyclist Emergency Braking and Drowsy Driver Detection are part of the ProMaster story, with an available 360-degree Surround View Camera and Active Driving Assist for long days on I-355 and I-290.
The ProMaster is sold in 1500, 2500 and 3500 series, each with roof heights and wheelbases that change cargo length, height and payload. Start with the job, then choose the trim.

Buying a work van is a business decision, and our commercial team treats it that way. We help you size the van to your payload and shelving, and explain how the Stellantis On the Job upfit allowance can help with eligible upfits and equipment. Many business owners also review our Section 179 information with their tax professional before year-end purchases.
Our finance team works with multiple lenders on business and personal financing, so you can explore ProMaster financing and get a number on your current van or truck through our trade-in tool. After the sale, keep your van earning with online service scheduling, the Mopar Express oil change lane and genuine parts from our parts department.
DuPage Chrysler Dodge Jeep RAM is at 433 East North Avenue (IL-64) in Glendale Heights, close to I-355 and the Elgin O’Hare Expressway. Browse the ProMaster inventory above and call our sales and commercial line at 630-547-1001 to confirm availability or set up a test drive.
Standard Roof vans fit low parking structures and suit lighter loads, while High Roof and Super High Roof vans let most people stand inside and fit tall shelving. The 118-inch wheelbase is the easiest to park, and the 159-inch wheelbase gives you the longest cargo floor. Bring your shelving plan or equipment list and we will help you measure it out.
Ram lists up to 4,750 lbs of payload on a properly equipped ProMaster 3500 and up to 6,910 lbs of towing on a properly equipped ProMaster 1500. Shelving, ladders and upfit equipment count against payload, so ask us for the rating of the exact van you are considering.
The ProMaster is front-wheel drive, which places engine weight over the drive wheels and helps traction on snowy side streets. Like any van, it does best with good winter tires and a sensible load, and a light empty van can feel loose on ice. Our team can recommend tires through our tire center.
Yes. Many ProMaster buyers add shelving, partitions, E-track, ladder racks or refrigeration. Eligible upfits may qualify for the Stellantis On the Job allowance, and our commercial team can explain current program details and help coordinate the work.
The gas ProMaster offers more payload, towing and model variety plus quick refueling for unpredictable routes. The ProMaster EV suits predictable daily mileage and businesses that can charge overnight, with no oil changes. Compare your typical day’s miles with the EV’s rated range before you decide.
Many work vans used for business may qualify for Section 179 or other deductions, but eligibility depends on your business and how the vehicle is used. Review our Section 179 page and speak with your tax professional before you buy.
