2021 Mercedes-Benz

Sprinter Cargo Van BASE

Under the hood is Mercedes-Benz's 2.0L turbocharged 4-cylinder diesel engine, paired with the 7G-TRONIC 7-speed automatic transmission and rear-wheel drive. The diesel setup is a great fit for a commercial van, especially for someone doing a lot of highway driving, deliveries, or putting plenty of kilometres on for work. It gives you strong low-end torque and the kind of driving range that makes sense in a work vehicle. The cargo area is really what you're buying a Sprinter for. The 144-inch wheelbase gives you a large, open space that can be set up around your business. Add shelving and tool storage for a contractor, racks for an electrician or plumber, or leave it open for deliveries and larger equipment. The sliding side door and wide-opening rear doors also make it much easier to get equipment in and out throughout the day. Up front, the Sprinter is more comfortable than you might expect from a commercial van. You get air conditioning, cruise control, power windows and locks, Bluetooth connectivity, a multifunction steering wheel, touchscreen infotainment, and a backup camera. The high seating position and large windshield also give you a good view of what's happening around the van. Mercedes-Benz includes useful safety equipment such as Crosswind Assist, Attention Assist, Electronic Stability Control, Hill Start Assist, and traction control. Crosswind Assist is especially useful in a tall van like this because it can help keep the vehicle more stable when strong winds hit the side of it on the highway. With the 144-inch wheelbase, large cargo area, rear-wheel drive, and practical commercial layout, this Sprinter is a good starting point for a business that needs a van it can set up for its own type of work. Whether it's carrying tools, parts, equipment, or deliveries, there's a lot you can do with the space behind the seats.
