2019 Ram ProMaster City fuel economy (EPA)

The EPA rates the 2019 Ram ProMaster City at 24 MPG combined. Every EPA test configuration is below, from the government's fuel-economy database.

City, highway and combined figures are in MPG (MPGe on electricity).

Version	Engine	Transmission · drive	City	Hwy	Comb.	Fuel / yr	CO₂ g/mi
Promaster City	2.4L 4-cylinder	9-speed automatic · FWD	21MPG	28MPG	24MPG	$2,600	374

Source: U.S. EPA and Department of Energy, fueleconomy.gov. MPG is miles per gallon (MPGe for electric operation). Plug-in hybrids list gasoline-only MPG with the electric rating underneath. Annual fuel cost assumes 15,000 miles a year at the EPA's fuel-price assumptions, so yours will differ. Range is total driving range on a full tank or charge.

2019 Ram ProMaster City wheels & tires

Factory tire and wheel sizes, spare and the pressure to run, from the spec sheet and owner's manual.

Fits	Tire	Wheel	Type
All models	215/55R16XL	16 in, steel or aluminum	all-season, extra load

Cold tire pressure: Not a single number: the owner's manual refers to the tire and loading placard, which lists the pressures for your exact tire size and load.
Spare: Manual says the van can have a tire service kit, a compact spare or a regular-size spare (with or without a TPMS sensor); a stowed spare hangs on a winch under the rear.
Lug nut torque: 63 ft-lb (86 N·m) (Steel wheels only), M12 x 1.25 thread, 17 mm socket
Pressure monitor: A tire pressure monitoring system warns when a tire is low.

Sizes and pressures vary by trim, wheel package and load: check the placard on your vehicle and the tire sidewall. Sizes from the manufacturer's specification sheet (2019 Ram ProMaster City Specifications). Pressure and spare notes from the owner's manual.

2019 Ram ProMaster City maintenance schedule

The factory schedule for normal driving. Oil changes follow the oil-change indicator on most models; severe use (towing, dusty roads, lots of idling) shortens some intervals.

2019 Ram ProMaster City recalls & safety

What the U.S. government's National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) has on file for the 2019 Ram ProMaster City: 1 recall campaign and 5 owner complaints. Fetched November 8, 2026.

NHTSA hasn't published 5-Star Safety Ratings for the 2019 Ram ProMaster City.

Recalls (1)

Newest first. A campaign covers certain vehicles of this model year, not necessarily every one. To see which apply to a specific vehicle, and whether the fix has been done, enter its VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls or ask a dealer; repairs are free of charge.

Exterior lighting: turn signalSeptember 21, 2021 · Campaign 21V728000

Chrysler (FCA US, LLC) is recalling certain 2019-2021 Ram ProMaster City vehicles. If one or both turn signal lights fail, the flashing rate may not change to warn the driver of the failure. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 108, "Lamps, Reflective Devices, and Associated Equipment."

Risk: The driver may be unaware that the turn signals are not signaling their intentions to other drivers, which can increase the risk of a crash.

Fix: Dealers will update the Body Controller Module (BCM) software, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed October 28, 2021. Owners may contact FCA US LLC customer service at 1-800-853-1403. FCA US LLC's number for this recall is Y71.

Salt, snow and hills: the data

Reading the 2019 ProMaster City data for Great Lakes roads

We read the 2019 ProMaster City owner data, service schedule and spec sheets with Kentucky driving in mind: frozen starts, salted highways, cratered streets and hills. These are the figures worth acting on.

Sidewall height versus broken pavement

Squalls off Lake Michigan and Lake Erie can drop snow faster than plows keep up, and then tire compound matters more than anything else on the vehicle. Starting from the factory 215/55R16 size, a true winter tire on 16-inch wheels grips packed snow far better than an all-season and leaves sidewall for the potholes the next thaw brings.

The oil grade on a January morning

The 2019 Ram ProMaster City fluids table lists SAE 0W-20, with 5.5 qt per change. Lake-effect winters are full of short, cold trips: to work, to school, to the store and home again before the engine reaches temperature. That pattern is tough on oil, so let the oil-change indicator set the interval and never stretch it.

Cranking power for a lake-effect morning

A ProMaster City left at a lake cottage or in a pole barn for weeks slowly drains its battery, and a cold snap then finds it with nothing to spare. A plug-in maintainer for stored vehicles is cheap insurance in the Great Lakes states.

Traction for snowbelt hills and hollows

Every 2019 version in the factory data is front-wheel drive; no all-wheel or four-wheel drive was offered. That works through a Great Lakes winter on proper winter tires, which matter more on packed snow than the number of driven wheels. Hills are the harder test, from steep Cincinnati side streets to back roads in West Virginia, so carry momentum gently and avoid spinning the tires.

Tank size for hill country

The 2019 Ram ProMaster City holds 16 gallons of fuel. Once you leave the interstate in West Virginia or eastern Kentucky, mountain routes can run a long way between stations, and the climbs burn more fuel than flat miles do. Fill up before heading into the hills.

Gravel hollow roads and the air filter

The schedule asks for more frequent air-filter attention in dusty conditions, beyond the normal replacement every 30,000 miles. Gravel roads up Appalachian hollows and coal-haul routes in West Virginia and eastern Kentucky qualify, so inspect the filter at each oil change if they are part of your week.

Octane from the owner data

The owner data specifies 87 octane. A higher grade than the manual asks for adds cost without benefit, while a lower one than required makes the engine pull back ignition timing, which shows most under load on a long Appalachian climb.

Data behind these notes: owner's manual capacities, the Mopar service schedule and factory spec sheets. Regional advice is general, written for drivers from Kentucky to Tennessee.

2019 Ram ProMaster City questions

How much oil does the 2019 Ram ProMaster City take?

With a filter change: 2.4L engine (SAE 0W-20, API certified), 5.5 qt / 5.2 L. Capacities are from the owner's manual; check the dipstick or oil-life display after filling.

What kind of oil does the 2019 Ram ProMaster City use?

2.4L engine: SAE 0W-20, API certified (MS-6395) and Engine oil filter: Mopar engine oil filter.

When is the first scheduled maintenance on the 2019 Ram ProMaster City?

At 20,000 miles: inspect the cv joints; inspect front suspension, boot seals, tie rod ends, and replace if necessary; inspect the brake linings, parking brake function; replace air conditioning/cabin air filter; change brake fluid every two years. Oil changes in between follow the oil-change indicator.

Where can I find the 2019 Ram ProMaster City owner's manual?

The manufacturer publishes it free on Mopar.com as a PDF (linked in the manuals section above), along with quick guides, radio manuals and the warranty booklet.

What MPG does the 2019 Ram ProMaster City get?

The EPA rates the 2019 Ram ProMaster City at 24 MPG combined, depending on the version. 2.4L 4-cylinder, 9-speed automatic, FWD: 21 city / 28 highway / 24 combined. Ratings are the EPA's laboratory figures from fueleconomy.gov; real-world mileage varies with driving, load and weather.

What size tires does the 2019 Ram ProMaster City use?

Factory tire sizes: 215/55R16XL (All models). The recommended cold inflation pressure for your exact tires is on the tire placard on the vehicle, not in a single table.

What changed on the 2019 Ram ProMaster City?

No longer standard or offered on some trims: Uconnect 3 NAV with 5-in. display, includes AM/FM/NAV (Tradesman SLT and SLT Wagon).

Does the 2019 Ram ProMaster City have recalls?
