Fiat Ducato Ram ProMaster conversion Abarth

2015 Fiat Ducato Clone

Here is something that we don't featured everyday: a Ram ProMaster van badge-engineered into a Fiat Ducato shop van. Following in the footsteps of Daimler and their Sprinter vans, FCA saw fit to bring the Fiat commercial van lineup to North America to meet the increased demand for the tall, European-style vans. In the North American market these vans were marketed under the Ram brand, but little differentiates the Ram vans from their Fiat cousins found in Europe.

What really solidifies the European credibility of this particular Ram ProMaster is the diesel engine. Branded EcoDiesel in North America, the Iveco unit produces a respectable 155hp and 300lb-ft of torque. Unfortunately, this engine was only available in North America for a few short years, as diesels have fallen out of favor with North America, for a number of reasons.

This is 2015 Ram Promaster 2500 EcoDiesel and as many of you already know, it is really Fiat Ducato, Peugeot Boxter and Citroen Jumper in disguise. This model ( diesel ) more so as the engine and transmission in this configuration are available on Euro market, just as it is.

Also it is very hard to find stateside at this point, not many Diesel's around.
I have purchased this van with intention to make it a "shop" van, but plans have changed and van has to go. Van was purchased from insurance company, it has had minimal damage in the rear right corner, and to the rear axle ( dead axle this is FWD van ). We have replaced everything and no expense spared. All brand new stuff, except for rear axle, but that is just a solid piece of metal, so we got a used assembly from recycler. Wheels are new as well. Literally brand new assemblies with new rims and new tpms's. I have also installed brand new trailer hitch and factory wiring ( 4 and 7 plug ) and if needed, brake controller installation would be breeze, all is there.

As you can see in the pictures, van has been re-badged back to Fiat, I also have original grill with Abarth emblem. There is a set of Abarth stickers made for this van, and installed.
So, this van was one owner prior to me, sold new in Rhode Island at the end of 2015, to electrical contractor. Original cost was just under $49000. It was sold and maintained by Chrysler dealer. Current oil service is still good, for another 2-3000 miles, but I have full set of filters ( oil, fuel, air, cabin ) and oil to go with it. We purchased the van couple months ago, repaired the damage, had it inspected ( salvage inspection ), 4 wheel alignment was done, stickers removed, van was cleaned in and out. There is a partition behind the seats, I had it removed, but I still have it. 

Van is ready to go, and ready to be registered, all paperwork is in order and buyer can count on 20 day temporary tag for the trip, if needed.

I have personally driven this van 4-5000 miles, just to make sure all is good. 

We will provide, free, clear and transferable SALVAGE Rhode Island title WITH NEW HAMPSHIRE SALVAGE INSPECTION SUCCESSFULLY COMPLETED. 

What you see in the pictures is what you get, nothing more and nothing less.  
Instead of writing long disclosures, common sense is expected, you win you own, and expected to pay. Swift transaction is essential, certified funds of course within 2-3 days. 

AS IS sale. We will assist in any possible way.

Aside from the Fiat Badges, Fiat front grille, and the Abarth decals, not much sets this van apart from the Ram on which it's based. For Italian car owners with the need for a shop van, that should be plenty. We must warn potential buyers that this example has a salvage title, although the seller reports that the minor damage was all repaired with proper attention to detail. Caveat Emptor applies, but we don't think that it's a dealbreaker - if the price reflects the damage, that is.

Italian car owners aren't always the most rational bunch. We ourselves are inexplicably drawn to this van, if only for the Abarth decals and Fiat badges. Is that so wrong? After all, it was surely engineered by Fiat in their Italian tech center. The badges are just a correction to reveal the truth behind the vans origins!
