"The ProMaster drives surprisingly well for such a large vehicle." - Motor Trend
The 2022 RAM ProMaster Cargo Van carries a 3.6L V6 engine that churns out 280 hp and 260 lb-ft of torque. Hitched with a newly 9-speed automatic transmission that replaces the older 6-speed transmission, the power is delivered through an FWD layout.
Considering the segment, the RAM ProMaster comes with Light-Duty, Medium-Duty, and Heavy-Duty Suspensions as per trim specifics. Attributed to its body size, the center of gravity is generally high, owning to a higher rollover risk but to manage that it has been given electric-power steering over hydraulic for reduced handling effort.
With its powertrain, the ProMaster sprints from 0-60 MPH in 8.1 seconds while the quarter-mile drag takes 16.5 seconds. Attached with 11.8-inch front and 11-inch rear vented disc brakes on the wheels, it has a braking distance of nearly 200 ft. Furthermore, Brake Assist and Brake-Boost Compensation are other assists that enhance efficiency.

As per the power curve, the RAM ProMaster has 100 hp more power than Sprinter and 2lb-ft more torque. This allows the former to tow almost 1910 lbs more than the latter. Even the Ford Transit falls short in towing capacity by some 700 lbs against the ProMaster despite having 2 lb-ft better torque.
"Full-size vans such as the ProMaster are exempt from fuel-economy standards." - Car And Driver
The 2022 RAM ProMaster has not been rated by EPA in its fuel economy yet. Except for its 24-gallon fuel tank capacity, there is nothing much available to comment on.

Since there is a lack of data, the overall comparison does remain inconclusive. However, one might predict an impressive range coverage by Express over ProMaster as the former has a 7-gallon bigger tank but that's not concrete.
"The voluminous cargo area is also an asset wherever the ProMaster goes." - AutoTrader
The interior of the 2022 RAM ProMaster Cargo Van is a typical one that gets black accented cloth-trimmed seats and headliner on top. However, it does champion that touch and comfort with its optional leather upholstery costing $1,695 and Driver Suspension Seats at $345. In addition to that, the heating function is also embedded with an investment of $145 for the front passenger and $195 for driver's seats.
Though the RAM ProMaster is a 2-seater cargo van but the arrangement can be switched to a three-seating at $395. To further illuminate the ambiance, RAM has brought Wood Floor at a price of $445 along with a leather-trimmed steering wheel at $195. But from a loading resilience perspective, there is a MOPAR Cargo Load Floor that charges an additional $975.

In terms of interior dimensions, the ProMaster Cargo Van offers a splendid 18-inch better headroom than the Sprinter. Not just that, it even has a 7-inch larger shoulder room than the Transit. However, when it comes to legroom, it has a deficit of 2.4-inch against the Chevy Express. Regarding infotainment, a newer 7-inch touchscreen display with UConnect 5 has been incorporated over UConnect 3 with a 5-inch one.
For musical pitches and rhythm, the ProMaster employs a 4-speaker audio unit. But there seems no reason to content oneself with standard assets as UConnect 5 NAV with a 10.1-inch display can also be availed that's a part of $1,995 priced Driver Convenience Group. Some of the other notable interior features have been listed down as well:
"The styling of the front snout of the ProMaster is a bit controversial, but you aren't buying a work van to win beauty contests." - Kelley Blue Book
Simply not meant for styling, the 2022 RAM ProMaster Cargo Van has been carved to be as practical as possible. Having 10 exterior colors such as Sandstone Pearl and Bright White on option, it surely is one fine customizable cargo van. And the front casts nothing more than aero-composite halogen headlamps, however, the rear can have cargo LED lamps at $125.
The RAM ProMaster Cargo Van rests on both 16-inch aluminum and steel wheels that are complemented by all-season tires. As far as modifications are concerned, it can have a passenger sliding door after spending $195 while the rear hinged door with fixed glass will cost an extra $345. Even the Premium Appearance Group at $395 is up for choosing to engineer it with front fog lamps and chrome-finish grille.

Based on the analysis, the ProMaster is almost 450 lbs lighter than the Express that translates to better maneuvering around corners when fully loaded. The same stays true against the Ford Transit too. The Mercedes-Benz Sprinter has been designed to have a 26-inch longer wheelbase which might help the latter in straight line stability but with compromised cornering.
"Easier to maneuver than similarly sized vans." - Edmunds
The 2022 RAM ProMaster has no safety rating tagged to its name either by NHTSA or IIHS. Actually, for the past few years, it has not been crash-tested resulting in uncertainties in its structural resilience. However, it has been armed with multiple advanced safety features to counter that uncertainty along with an additional Safety Group at $1,495. Some of them have been mentioned below :
The 2022 RAM ProMaster has been specced with far better towing capacity and power performance than the Mercedes-Benz Sprinter. Even the new upgrades in the model year 2022 improve its overall drivability. On the other hand, the Sprinter has got an edge in finish and accent. But this segment is all about practicality where RAM fits much better.
Being competitively priced against each other, the Chevy Express has been empowered with a significant towing prowess over the 2022 RAM ProMaster. However, in terms of interior spaciousness, RAM does accommodate more. Even the handling and driving are more refined in the ProMaster. Hence, it has to be RAM between the two.
Having an almost parallel performance curve, both the 2022 RAM ProMaster and the 2022 Ford Transit have a high-reliability quotient. But when it is a matter of towing capacity, RAM does have a lead. Even the inherent FWD in RAM curbs the chances of toppling more effectively than the standard RWD when fully loaded. So, one should prefer RAM here.
The 2022 RAM Promaster is, without a doubt, a great cargo van on offer by the brand. It has got both interior cargo space and towing capacity along with a relatively better handling that the segment demands. Regarding comfort and convenience, most of the features are optional and one can choose them as per requirement and budget. So, it seems a nice trade-off for one's investment.
