A reliable name and superior technology is a formidable combination to beat so it took hold of panel vans without much resistance.<\/p>\n<p>Even today if you come across a Sprinter 316 in good condition you find its price pretty high than other used vans. The van is available in the number of shapes and a variety of dimensions. Different roof heights and body lengths make a good number of combinations in which buyers can opt according to their needs.<\/p>\n<p>Mercedes kept including new technologies to this vehicle and it remained one of many reasons for its top position in the large commercial van segment. Sprinter was the first to come with ABS brakes and then ESP also became standard in all vans of the range.<\/p>\n<p>Till 2006 top speed of the van was 85mph and the diesel unit installed for it capable of 154hp. Front slanting cabin and rear boxy area for cargo is quite a practical shape and this van adopted the same.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"A_close_look_may_reveal_some_touches_on_body_of_the_van\"><\/span>A close look may reveal some touches on body of the van<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Being a commercial van and built to maximize practicality shape never has been focused much and it has remained unchanged. Mercedes Sprinter supply and fitting service providers are always in quest of serving their customers to their satisfaction. The expert technician carefully carries out the installation of the reconditioned unit and ensures compatibility.<\/p>\n<p>The company also did not make an effort to come out of this boring boxy image. A close look may reveal some touches on the body of the van which engineers have introduced to give it a contemporary look. It is also an effort to stand out among the lot.<\/p>\n<p>Front grille, for instance, is simple but elegant too and front lights are also stylish which turns it into a dynamic front of the van. The front bumper with some air intake points is nicely gelled with the rest of the exterior.<\/p>\n<p>Different body designs come with different load capacities and it starts from 7 cubic meters and reaches to more than double the base capacity. The top towing ability is 2490kg and it has two hinged doors at the rear. The bumper at back has a step to access the load area with more ease.<\/p>\n<p>Side sliding doors also show the practical approach of designers of this commercial van. These doors also enhance the functionality of the load area so you can use any of the openings to load or unload weights.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_plastic_used_to_build_interior_is_selected_with_great_care\"><\/span>The plastic used to build interior is selected with great care<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Mercedes has topped in this area too and Sprinter\u2019s interior remained the best in class. Used Mercedes Benz engines are a good alternative for people having no budget to buy a new van so they change their vehicles\u2019 power units.\u00a0 The interior of the front cabin is made to provide the feel of calmness to the drivers and let them get relaxed.<\/p>\n<p>The plastic used to build interior is selected with great care so you will appreciate every bit of it. Other vans\u2019 interior has plastic of lesser grade so this van interior shines further. Though it is a commercial van Mercedes has kept its best practice and produced a nice sitting place for the driver.<\/p>\n<p>Three people can occupy this cabin and all of them enjoy ample room. All three occupants have good knee and headroom as well as shoulder room. The dashboard has a good layout so controls remain in good reach of a person on the driver\u2019s seat.<\/p>\n<p>Centre console is also built with an approach of using it with maximum utility. The instrument cluster is easy to read so easy to bring in use.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"You_can_choose_from_three_engines_for_a_Sprinter\"><\/span>You can choose from three engines for a Sprinter<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>The dash-mounted gear knob is also adopted by this carmaker which keeps the floor free of any fitting. The most liked is the modern steering wheel which looks good and can be compared with any contemporary steering of a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mercedes-benz.co.uk\/vans\/en\/sprinter-panel-van\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Mercedes Sprinter<\/strong> <strong>van<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>You can adjust it too, so a good position is very much possible to put hands on it. Seats are not very comfortable and by modern standards, these are hard but give side and back support. You can adjust them as well so apart from being hard you find them good to sit on.<\/p>\n<p>You can choose from three engines for a Sprinter and the first one of them has 3 variants from 82hp to 129hp. Another option of more powerful diesel is also present and a petrol engine is also part of the three. With these features and flexibility, the van has rightly been ranked as the best in class.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Reliable company name combined with proper power producing units Mercedes Sprinter has long been known as the best of vans but after several years it started to show lack of modernity and rivals appear exceeding with the flair of advancement.
