When shopping for a commercial van, capacity and value matter. The Mercedes-Benz Sprinter delivers across the board:

Cargo Capacity:

• 144” WB: 374 cu. ft.
• 170” WB: 488 cu. ft.
• 170” Extended: 533 cu. ft.

• Passenger Van: Seats up to 15 (170” WB)

All Sprinter models run on proven diesel engines with extended oil change intervals (up to 20,000 miles), reducing overall service time and cost.

Designed to Work Hard and Smart

The Mercedes-Benz Sprinter isn’t just a van; it’s a full-on work solution. With multiple body styles and configurations, it can be tailored to fit the way you operate:

• Sprinter 2500 Cargo Van: With up to 533 cubic feet of cargo space (on the 170" extended wheelbase), this van is a powerhouse for delivery businesses, tradespeople, and mobile workshops.
• Sprinter 3500 Cab Chassis: A versatile foundation that’s ready to be upfitted for your specific trade.
• Sprinter 3500 Box Truck (12ft box): Ideal for moving and logistics, this variant offers three seats up front and a generous enclosed cargo area.
• Sprinter 3500 Dump Body with Drop Sides: Built for construction, landscaping, and heavy-duty hauling.
• Sprinter 3500 with Knapheide Triple Front Seat: Adds capacity and comfort for jobs requiring extra crew members.
• Sprinter Passenger Van: Seats up to 15 passengers, making it a reliable option for shuttle services, hotels, and corporate transport.

No matter your profession, there’s a Sprinter that fits your workflow.

A Reputation Built on Safety and Reliability

Safety and reliability make a Sprinter. That’s not just a clever line; it reflects how this vehicle is built from the ground up. Sprinters are engineered with durable diesel powertrains, advanced driver assistance systems, and an unwavering commitment to longevity.

• All-Wheel Drive Capability: For those who face off-road job sites or unpredictable conditions, the available AWD system adds 4.3 inches of ground clearance over the RWD model, giving you added traction and confidence when it counts.
• Advanced Safety Features: Many of the same driver assistance features found in luxury Mercedes-Benz vehicles are available in Sprinters, including Blind Spot Assist, Active Lane-Keeping Assist, and optional innovations like Sideguard Assist and the Moving Off Information System (MOIS), which help detect pedestrians and cyclists.
• Durability for the Long Haul: With routine maintenance, it’s not uncommon for a Sprinter to exceed 300,000 miles, a testament to Mercedes-Benz engineering.

When you do need service, ServiceCARE means repairs are done right, using only Genuine Mercedes-Benz Parts, keeping your van in peak condition with less downtime.

Lower Cost Over Time

While the initial cost of a Sprinter may be higher than some competitors, Mercedes-Benz proves that value isn’t just about price tags; it’s about long-term return.

• J.D. Power Best Residual Value: The 2025 U.S. ALG Residual Value Awards named the Mercedes-Benz Sprinter #1 for resale value among commercial vans.
• Longest Factory Warranty: Every Sprinter comes with a 3-year/36,000-mile basic warranty and a 5-year/100,000-mile powertrain warranty, both among the longest in the industry.
• Lower Total Cost of Ownership (TCO): When you factor in durability, maintenance intervals, and fuel efficiency, the Sprinter often proves more economical than lower-priced alternatives.

If uptime, resale value, and reliability are important to your bottom line, the Sprinter is a smart investment.

Smart Design for Smarter Workflow

From a practical standpoint, the Sprinter is built with your daily demands in mind. Simple features like 270-degree hinged rear doors make a big difference in loading and unloading. Plus, with countless upfitting options, including shelving, refrigeration, dump bodies, and custom lighting, there’s no need to compromise on your setup.
