We'll be here waiting for you. Reading lights which can be operated individually are also installed here. Here too, the sophisticated basic design involving independent wheel suspension on semi-trailing arms has been retained, but the development engineers have completely reconfigured the springs, auxiliary springs and shock absorbers and designed new bearings for the shock absorbers. In keeping with the different service conditions and requirements for the vehicles, the respective models feature different rear axle configurations: in the case of the Mercedes-Benz Vito panel van and the Mixto the focus is on a particularly robust design to cope with the highest possible loads, while the suspension and damping on the Vito crewbus are designed to afford passengers maximum comfort. The Vito offers new seat covers in exclusive design for the driver and passengers. Mercedes-Benz has upgraded the appointments in comparison to the predecessor model by way of exclusive interior panelling and a front passenger airbag.
Tutorials are available at no charge to help familiarize both new and experienced users with the Mercedes-Benz spare parts group system and the selection of the appropriate part for your particular vehicle. At Mercedes-Benz Manhattan, we offer our New York customers a large selection of quality pre-owned Mercedes-Benz. A fold-out monitor with DVD player and infrared headphones is available through Mercedes-Benz Accessories and can be fitted by authorised Mercedes-Benz workshops. Greatest comfort is afforded by the Music Search function, which enables drivers and passengers to search the hard disc, SD memory cards, USB sticks, CD and DVD for specific music tracks and artists. Key features include the Tempmatik controlled air conditioning system, comfort driver seat, a cockpit with Softouch surfacing, comfort bench seats, carpeting in the passenger compartment, bumpers in the vehicle's exterior colour and light-alloy wheels. The options are limited to rear bench seats, air conditioning, additional heat exchanger, trailer coupling, radio and all-season tyres. A similar situation applies to the driven rear axle.
The modified axle setting ensures improved response. While the Vito's front axle continues to be based on independent wheel suspension with spring struts, Mercedes-Benz has carried out a complete redesign of the axle's finer points of detail. The new bearings for the control arms have been designed with a special emphasis on comfort, with separated functions for longitudinal and lateral forces on the front axle. Some of these features are a folding couch, wide screen TVs, Wireless Internet, and even bathrooms, all of which goes to make any highly valued guests feel even more special and honored. There's a choice of engines, chassis lengths and heights and weight ratings, and even a choice of rear-wheel drive, all-wheel drive, or front-wheel drive - is there any other vehicle that offers this variety? The Becker Map Pilot is nowhere near worthy of the price it commands, and the speakers have terribly tinny sound, even considering the vehicle they’re installed in. The Vito's interior designers have paid close attention to every last detail, as revealed by apparently minor features such as the new inside handle for the sliding door, whose new position renders it more accessible and markedly reduces the level of effort required to open the door.
The new colour concept for the interior panelling and floor coverings enhances the Vito's appearance. In addition to lending the floor area a more elegant appearance, these lips also facilitate removal of the seats and horizontal seat adjustment. The rails to which the rear seats are fitted in the Mercedes Vito crewbus have been provided with rubber lips. The Vito CREW replaces the previous Vito Basic crewbus. The Mercedes-Benz Vito CREW comes exclusively with CDI diesel engines rated at 70 kW (95 hp) and 100 kW (136 hp). The Mercedes-Benz Vito CREW is a new crewbus model variant aimed at applications in which robustness is more important than an extensive scope of equipment, e.g. in the building trade. Another new model variant is the Vito SHUTTLE. The rear-wheel drive has benefited the Mercedes-Benz Vito's driving dynamics and handling ever since the current model series was first introduced. Side base sections in artificial leather highlight the Mercedes-Benz Vito's robust character. The rear side panelling also comes as standard in the Mercedes-Benz Vito crewbus and as an option in the Vito Mixto.
