About the 2015 Ram ProMaster

With an overall Carivo score of 5.9/10, the 2015 Ram ProMaster earns a Fair rating among the vans we've scored. Its strongest dimension is Reliability at 8.7/10, while Value at 6.7/10 is where it trails the competition most noticeably. Buyers should review the score breakdown carefully and consider higher-rated alternatives before committing.

Reliability and safety are the two dimensions that matter most for long-term ownership costs. We rate the Ram ProMaster's reliability at 8.7/10 — among the strongest in our van database, reflecting the nameplate's track record and recall history. On safety it earns 8.2/10: respectable, if not class-leading — several competitors bundle more driver-assist tech as standard. Check your trim's official ratings at nhtsa.gov.

The 8.6/10 performance score reflects a chassis and powertrain that punch above the segment norm — this is a van you choose partly for the drive itself. Technology comes in at 7.8/10 — functional and modern, with wireless connectivity and core ADAS features, though some competitors pack more standard tech at this price point.

Priced from $29,630–$35,887, 10 MPG, seating 2, the Ram ProMaster sits in the mid-market bracket of the van segment. The value score of 6.7/10 is a red flag — comparable alternatives offer meaningfully more for the same outlay. Shop the segment before deciding. At 11 years old, resale value, parts availability, and whether a successor model has improved on its weak points are all worth investigating before committing.

Bottom line: Based on our scoring, the 2015 Ram ProMaster underperforms its segment peers across multiple dimensions. Unless there's a specific reason it fits your situation — price, a particular trim's features, or availability — there are better-scored alternatives at similar price points worth considering first.
