Sure, it might cost a little more to enclose the passenger area and create a reasonable bed area strong enough to carry some heavy loads (Sprinters already have more payload capacity than any half-ton sold), but such a pickup could really shake up the full-size segment with a powerful and unique engine combined with stunning empty and loaded ride dynamics. Add to that a laundry list of standard and optional safety features, and you begin to see why this is the most expensive vehicle in the segment. At a recent Mercedes-Benz press event we drove a Sprinter chassis-cab one-ton with a ScattoMaax dump bed, made by European equipment manufacturer Scattolini, mounted to the frame; we immediately put it on our post-Lotto-win "must-have" list. Mercedes-Benz Vans Canada recently held a fleet event at its Training Academy in Mississauga, Ontario for the Canadian debut of its all-new 2019 Sprinter. In Arjeplog, the eSprinter was subjected to its final winter endurance tests before it follows the eVito onto the market in the second half of 2019. Initially, the new eSprinter will be available as a panel van with a high roof and a permissible gross vehicle weight of 3500 kilogrammes. At temperatures as low as minus 30 degrees with icy roads and deep snow, the eSprinter proved its operability under extreme conditions.
鈥淵et again we asked a lot of our eSprinter during the final winter endurance tests,鈥?says Benjamin Kaehler, Head of eDrive@VANs at Daimler AG. Daimler told federal safety regulators it is not aware of any complaint or incident in any of the vehicles. WASHINGTON - Daimler Vans USA is recalling 55 2015-'16 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter and Freightliner Sprinter 2500 and 3500 vans because the windows may separate in a crash, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. The chassis-cab Sprinter alone weighs a good chunk less than 5,000 pounds, while the dump bed, with all the plumbing, bumper reinforcements, safety gear and tire fender covers, weighs just less than 3,000 pounds. What are the lug nut torque specs on a 2007 dodge sprinter? All 4x4 Sprinters use the bigger 3.0-liter V-6 BlueTec turbo-diesel, which is rated at 188 horsepower and 325 pounds-feet of torque. Steering feel is a standout feature, as is the power of the turbo-diesel V-6.
It is outfitted with a V-6 diesel engine that provides 325 lb-ft of torque and 188 hp to get a full van moving. At other times you could hear the center differential trying to get as much torque as possible to the front wheels. An RV Prep package that includes a trailer tow package, swivel seats, auxiliary switches and 16-inch wheels is available. The cost for the total package is close to $50,000, meaning that if the Sprinter 3500 chassis cab cost $37,000 (a good ballpark estimate), the ScattoMaax install and bed runs less than $20,000. The German automaker is pouring tech from its luxury cars into vans, starting with the new Sprinter. But the cars currently aren't under recall and can be sold legally. A date has not been set for the recall. NHTSA said in its recall summary. No one disputes the inherent advantages a pickup truck provides when carrying heavy and awkwardly sized cargo, but suppose you need more capability and versatility than a conventional pickup offers? Shop with Edmunds for perks and special offers on used cars, trucks, and SUVs near Peru, IL. But if ever there was a vehicle that works like a pickup truck, the commercial van is it.
Editor's note: Yes, we know the 2015 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 4x4 is not a pickup truck. D. Many of these systems cause the turbocharger to be switched off when there is a problem-causing the Sprinter to loose much of it's power. And there may be another reason this particular vehicle will be more important to us down the road. Hi,I have a Mercedes-Benz vito 1998 model,it鈥檚 in limp home mode and when I run it in the diagnostic machine it gave an code B01ff that鈥檚 stated 鈥渟hort circuit on ground 鈥?could this be the reason why it鈥檚 in limp home mode? If you鈥檝e got an idea for how to use a van, it鈥檚 likely that the Mercedes-Benz parts and accessories team has an assortment of workbenches, shelving and other modular parts designed to work inside the Sprinter to turn it into a mobile workshop, store or even kitchen. It鈥檚 an easy task and if you want to save a bit of money you can do it yourself.
In fact, depending on the configuration, Sprinters can have a payload capacity between 2,900 and 5,500 pounds, with gross vehicle weight ratings of 8,550, 9,900 and 11,030 pounds. Gross vehicle weight ratings for the Sprinter 3500 chassis cab is just a touch more than 11,000 pounds, meaning the Sprinter dump bed has a payload rating less than 4,000 pounds. Its maximum load volume is 10.5 m鲁 just like a comparable Sprinter. Equipped with a battery capacity of 55 kWh, its range is an estimated 1501 kilometres with a maximum payload of 900 kilogrammes. The tests in Sweden have shown: even in the unfavourable conditions described here, a range of around 1001 km is still available to the customer. But it is still a small segment. Even the casual observer will notice the full-size van segment is a different universe than it was 10 years ago. This is a segment that would be absolutely new and we could tackle it.
