For 2025, the Ram ProMaster EV electric cargo van comes with some key updates: a range of up to 180 miles from its 110 kWh battery pack, the addition of 12- and 13-foot cargo configurations, and a starting price of $56,495. While these updates might sound familiar, that’s because the 2024 version of the van, with all of its promises, has already been around for a year.
So, what’s the story? The initial rollout of the ProMaster EV last year focused heavily on the step van variant. It featured that “pocket” side door and roll-up rear door. This configuration was particularly popular with fleet customers.
Stellantis has partnered with major companies for the ProMaster EV. Merchants Fleet will become a significant commercial customer, having agreed to purchase 12,500 units. Additionally, a long-term agreement with Amazon involves the deployment of thousands of BEV ProMasters annually. Together, Stellantis and Amazon co-developed the vehicle with last-mile delivery features.
The key change for 2025 is that conventional cargo variants (with sliding van doors and split-opening rear doors) are finally readily available for smaller fleets and even individual van-lifers. The 12-foot cargo/low roof spec offers the maximum range of 180 miles. The high-roof version is rated for a claimed 164 miles.
“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,” says Tim Kuniskis, Ram brand CEO. “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 and IT services among others.”
Stellantis has also “repositioned” the ProMaster EV step van in 2025 with a new, lower starting price, now $69,995, plus a $1,995 destination fee. It is still $10,000 less than the 2024 starting price of $79,990. The order books for the 2025 ProMaster EV officially opened recently.
From an economic standpoint, commercial vans are a no-brainer for fleet managers. EVs have lower operating costs than comparable internal combustion engine (ICE) models. As a result, the transition toward electric vehicles remains a priority for many fleets.
Given the similarities to the 2024 model, the new price point is the major story here. The latest updates make the ProMaster EV a more viable option.
