Ram pickups broke all-new ground last year when the
Brand incorporated the efficiency and capability of the
3.6-liter Pentastar V6 powerplant. When the designers
of the Ram ProMaster models noted the acclaimed
figures the Pentastar V6 delivered for towing and hauling, it was a natural
match. New 2014 Ram ProMaster models mate the proven Pentastar V6
with the 6-speed automatic, a standard powertrain configuration that
earns ProMaster top-tier consideration.
This award-winning engine has been optimized for the commercial
market, with advanced sequential multiport fuel injection; electronic
throttle control with available integrated cruise control; coil-on-plug
ignition; dual overhead cams with four valves per cylinder and variable
cam phasing. The upshot is superiority: the Pentastar V6 in a
Ram ProMaster gives you best-in-class

standard V6 horsepower and
torque while delivering competitive fuel efficiency.
durabILIty, defIned.
Pentastar V6 factors for long-life performance and fuel
efficiency are numerous; they include the “Silent Chain” timing drive, dual
overhead cams, high-flow “tumble” intake ports and a seriously authoritative
10.2:1 compression ratio.
Cost of ownershIp, mInImIZed.
In the latest iteration of the 3.6L Pentastar
V6, we’ve introduced a no-maintenance camshaft drive and valvetrain;
with spark plugs designed to operate for 100,000 miles before replacement,
downtimes are kept to a bare minimum.
InteLLIgent use — and dIsposaL — of oIL.
A major mandate: reduce
vehicle operating costs. These recommended oil change intervals approach a
new best-in-class

benchmark: 10,000 miles, and are based on software
recommendations – not a presumed time frame. Distinctively “green” in
nature, we also utilize an environmentally friendly paper oil filter. Oil is
extracted, recycled...and the cartridge is then incinerated.

This engine is robust from the get-go: our engineers
subjected it to more than 3.8 million miles of customer-equivalent testing and
57,000 hours of dynamometer testing.

Torque is critical. The Pentastar V6 torque curve
exceeds 90 percent of the peak value in the 1,600–
6,400 rpm range — ideal calibration to provide
power along with smooth and responsive driving.
The design saves space and contributes to
outstanding fuel efficiency; this is one of the
lightest and most impressive powerplants of its kind.
Reliability that exceeds the need, with stunning
power and efficient performance: little wonder why
the Pentastar
®
V6 has earned multiple awards.
Most competitive vehicles use a four-point mounting
system for the engine. Modifications to the
Pentastar V6 for Ram ProMaster create an
innovative three-point system that helps mitigate
noise, vibration and harshness (NVH). To that, add
select-fit lightweight pistons and an inverted-tooth
chain drive that greatly reduces sprocket contact.
