“While each and every one of our fleet customers is important to us, none command our attention like USPS,” said Tim Kuniskis, FCA’s VP of fleet operations for North America, in a statement. “I can’t think of another more mission-critical service than literally delivering the goods of our nation on a daily basis.”
He noted that the 2016 model ProMaster vans ordered by the Postal Service will come equipped with a gasoline-fueled 3.6-liter Pentastar V-6 engine rated at 280-horsepower output with peak torque of 260 lb.-ft. and mated to six-speed automatic transmission.
Ram added that those vans will also feature a front-wheel-drive system that will enhance the vehicle’s all-weather operation and will also be specifically customized for national mail and package delivery service.
