Are you searching for a work van with leading tech to keep your commercial fleet safe on Alberta’s roads? Consider the 2021 Ram ProMaster from St. Paul Dodge. Unlike its competition – the Nissan NV Cargo Van – the Ram offers essential driver aids to help your crew feel confident when behind the wheel.
All models of the 2021 ProMaster offer available blind-spot monitoring with rear cross-path detection, which uses dual wide-band radar sensors to scan the blind-spot zones behind the cargo van to help ensure safe manoeuvring. Forward collision warning is also available on all ProMaster platforms. This system provides both audible and visual warnings to alert the driver when it detects a potential frontal collision. If the driver doesn’t react in time, the system will step in to mitigate a possible collision.
The 2021 ProMaster also comes standard with Crosswind Assist. This driver-assist uses sensors to detect forces from sudden gusts and applies braking action to certain wheels to counteract the impact of the squalls. Windy conditions are no match for this cargo van.
The Nissan NV Cargo Van, in comparison, doesn’t offer blind-spot monitoring, forward collision warning or wind mitigation technologies in its fleet of commercial vehicles. The only driver assists you can expect to find in the Nissan variant are a rearview camera and rear sonar – both of which are also offered by the 2021 Ram ProMaster.
