A closer look at the Mercedes-Benz van lineup
July 15 2019,
The Mercedes-Benz van lineup stands out in a variety of ways that go beyond the versatility and practicality the Sprinter and Metris lineups offer. There’s a refinement and comfort component to Mercedes-Benz vans that pairs with impressive efficiency to make these transport vans luxurious and useful. They are ready to take on and fulfill your business or personal transport needs.
All this is possible thanks to the many versions that we find in the Mercedes-Benz Sprinter and Metris lineups. The Sprinter, for example, is offered as an entry-level or 4x4 model to tackle any road conditions with confidence. There are also three possible configurations for the Sprinter and two for the Metris.
Cargo
The Mercedes-Benz Sprinter and Mercedes-Benz Metris Cargo vans are designed for the transport of goods. In the case of the Sprinter, it’s possible to obtain several configurations for the height of the roof and the length of the body. In its most spacious version, the height of the cargo space is almost 2 meters (197.6 cm or 77.8 inches) while the length of the box is 492.5 cm. In the case of the Metris, it's possible to get a 126-inch wheelbase out of the gate or opt for the longer, 135-inch wheelbase.
Combi
Combi models are created to transport passengers. In the Metris, you get space for 8 passengers while the Sprinter offers up to 12 seats. Combi models can accommodate your passengers in the absolute comfort worthy of the Mercedes-Benz range. Whether it's a Sprinter or a Metris, your passengers will enjoy amazing silence and suspension that absorbs all imperfections on the road.
Chassis Cab
Chassis Cab models are only available on Mercedes-Benz Sprinter. They offer a host of possible configurations for the owner with their lightweight steel chassis and chassis frame rails.
2019 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 4x4: Get everywhere
With the 2019 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 4x4, you get a van that can travel anywhere thanks to an efficient and advanced all-wheel drive system. It's the only van to offer all-wheel drive, so it can handle any task, no matter what the situation is. Be it a snow storm, an off-road trail or a construction site, nothing stops the 2019 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 4x4.
The Sprinter 4x4 offers added stability and impressive safety. It’s available in 8 versions and offers two configurations, Combi and Cargo. With the Sprinter 4x4 you will always be able to do the job. The 2019 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 4x4 is able to climb any slope thanks to an optional lower differential that also helps it to tow heavy loads. Indeed, the AWD Sprinter is able to tow up to 5,000 pounds without any problems.
The 4x4 Sprinter also benefits from a 20% higher ground clearance compared to the "normal" Sprinter. This means that you will never have to worry about hitting a rock or any other object when you are on a more difficult road. Under the hood, the Sprinter 4x4 is powered by a 3.0-liter BlueTEC V6 engine that develops 188 horsepower and 325 lb-ft of torque. This allows it to tow with confidence and provide reassuring performance on the road while being fuel-efficient. Moreover, the all-wheel drive system only adds 120 kilos to the weight of the Sprinter.
This means, essentially, that you do not have to sacrifice performance or fuel efficiency to benefit from the stability of an all-wheel drive Sprinter.
