Ram Promaster City Camper
This is your typical MPV/van style body – not seen as much in the US, where the biggest everyday cars are usually family style 7 seaters like the Chrysler Pacifica, Grand Voyager etc. Because of its lighter body, the Promaster offers a slightly better MPG. But it’s still not the biggest in terms of boot size. The cargo (panel van) version will give you the biggest boot and, (despite what Ram’s official website says), I strongly believe that the MPV (wagon) version will give you less boot space. The seats, additional storage and upholstery in the back have to take off some of the boot width, height and length, there’s no way around that. I’d expect the wagon boot size will be similar to the Ford Turneo Connect, which is also its closest rival.
This car’s boot is 221 cm long ⤢, 131 cm tall ↕, and 123 cm wide ↔.

- According to Ram’s specs, both, the panel van (cargo) and the MPV (wagon) versions have the same boot size. I think it’s unlikely but couldn’t find any other information.
- the body reminds me strongly of Fiat Doblo
- it seems to only come with a barn door (why is this not as good as a tailgate?)

Average rating: 3.2/5
The ProMaster City is a simple machine for getting the job done, but other small vans are simply nicer to live with.
