Ram and Mopar Provide the Keys to Personalize All-new 2015 Ram ProMaster City

June 26, 2014 , Auburn Hills, Mich. -  Mopar is ready to go to work with the all-new 2015 Ram ProMaster City, offering more than 60 accessories to help commercial customers personalize Ram’s new small van workhorse to perfectly suit any task, trade or transport need.
 
Already the embodiment of versatility, providing big capability in a small package through best-in-class features such as payload, capacity and fuel economy, the 2015 Ram ProMaster City can be augmented even further with a great offering of Mopar products. Accessories for the interior, exterior, towing, security, electronics, safety and lifestyle are available to assist businesses large and small in getting the job done.
 
“Commercial customers can pull from a list of Mopar products tailored to personalize the all-new Ram ProMaster City and create their own vision of a workshop on wheels,” said Pietro Gorlier, President and CEO — Mopar, Chrysler Group’s service, parts and customer-care brand. “Owners can choose from upfit options such as towing packages, roof racks, carriers and more to adapt Ram’s new small van to exactly fit their business needs.”
 
“As businesses strive for lower costs, the demand for a smaller, more efficient van has increased and Ram Commercial is answering the bell with the all-new ProMaster City,” said Reid Bigland, President and CEO — Ram Truck Brand, Chrysler Group LLC. “Years ago, the selection of delivery and cargo vehicles was limited and those offerings didn’t focus on cost of ownership. Today all of that has changed with the recent introduction of the full-size Ram ProMaster, and the now the Ram ProMaster City.”
 
Based on the successful Fiat Doblò platform but also endowed with distinct Ram Truck elements and features, the Ram ProMaster City can be modified to fit any job with Mopar accessories. Mopar canvas seat covers, cargo mats, floor mats and slush mats are available for the interior, as well as work ready options, including a tool bag, duffle bag and cooler. The smooth lines, versatility and refinement of the Ram ProMaster City exterior can be protected with window deflectors and splash guards. Customizable graphics packages are available from Mopar to take advantage of the ProMaster City’s large exterior real estate, which transform the van into a rolling billboard.
 
When extra capacity is required, Mopar is ready to shoulder the load with a number of towing accessories for the Ram ProMaster City, including ball mount adapters, trailer hitch balls, hitch receiver, hitch receiver plugs and a trailer-tow wiring harness.
 
Mopar also can help keep the ProMaster City mobile workshop safe, secure and connected. The Mopar Electronic Vehicle Tracking System (EVTS) is available in a variety of packages for the United States and Canada, and rear park distance sensors alert drivers when obstacles loom near in the rear.
 
Customers can build their own mobile workshop using Mopar accessories. A universal handsfree cell phone kit keeps workers in touch responsibly while in transit, and Mopar Web takes the office on the road through a private mobile network. A variety of Mopar racks and carriers, including a Mopar roof rack, roof basket, bike carrier, ski carrier and cargo basket, provide additional space for transporting passenger luggage or other work materials.
 
Ram ProMaster City owners also can choose to personalize the Ram brand’s new Class 1 entry with select Mopar products through the Mopar Custom Shop. Specified accessories can be chosen during the ordering process to custom fit the needs of commercial customers. The additional Mopar accessories are installed before delivery to the dealership and are included on the vehicle’s Monroney sticker, assuring the products are covered under the warranty and add to the vehicle’s residual value.
