The second and third rows can be reconfigured or removed to accommodate different numbers of people and amounts of cargo. So a Bluetec-equipped Sprinter would have to be modified by a third party. The steering wheel appears to have been plucked for duty directly from the current C-class, and while it is adjustable for rake, telescoping action is not available, which seems a bit odd for a vehicle aimed at fleet buyers who might assign multiple drivers to a single vehicle. While the seatbacks pretty much nail the support/comfort paradigm, the seat bottoms are a little small for the carbohydrate-cultivated posteriors of American drivers. Our engineers will be happy to create something for you, if you are looking to get a bespoke option to your refrigeration vehicle needs, whether you want big or small Mercedes Sprinter refrigerated vans. AUSTIN - As the temperature starts to rise and we get closer to summer, people across Texas will be looking to find new and … Some will get pulled through, but as SST said I can tell a big difference in vent speed when there is a cracked window.
”-Mercedes chose for our version the name “Metris,” in reference to the metropolitan areas it figures most Metris owners will ply their trades in. While the passenger van has up to 38 cubic feet of cargo space behind the seats, the cargo van boasts up to 199 cubes on the long-wheelbase version. The cruise control expertly holds a steady 80 mph at 2550 rpm, easily putting time and space between you and the last stop. While hardly a record run, there’s rarely a time that the 2.0-liter and seven-speed automatic aren’t in the right place at the right time for any given driving situation. The 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine settles into a barely audible, refined idle that almost seems out of place when heard from the strictly business interior. That’s not to say it’s deficient; with most of its switchgear pulled from across the global Mercedes-Benz product portfolio, the interior is instantly familiar, if somewhat spartan in comparison to the automaker’s sedans.
Mercedes-Benz Vans. Born to run. Focus groups revealed that Americans, self-impressed film fans that we are, just couldn’t shake the “Corleone” connotations from the name Vito, christened in deference to the Vitoria, Spain, assembly facility where the Vito and its higher-luxe V-class brother are born. Impacts are well isolated and the cabin rattle-free, but we’ll need to sample one with a max payload to get the full picture before issuing a final verdict on ride quality. Little to medium van leasing is only 35 to 55 per cent less than what you’d generally pay to get a financed van. Would really like to get some detail shots. If you’d like to hear more, just contact us today or visit Keenan Motors at 3664 North Easton Road here in Doylestown. The only reason I wish this car exists is not because I particularly like the 7-Series, it's just that it would make sense for BMW to make a rival for the Jaguar XJR, the Mercedes-Benz S63/S65 AMG, and the Audi S8. The full availability of the sedan and station-wagon versions of the new C-Class and of the new smart fortwo will make a decisive contribution to this development.
Perhaps its ambiguous nature would make sense after a couple of 60-hour weeks behind the wheel. At a steady 70 mph, the Metris registers just a couple of decibels louder than the noise measurements we recorded in the fully plush Honda Odyssey, Kia Sedona, and Toyota Sienna during our last minivan comparison test. The 2020 Mercedes-Benz Metris is offered in the following submodels: Metris Minivan. Likewise, you won’t find plush, S-class-style seating offered in the Metris. On premium fuel, our Metris passenger van managed a 16.5-second quarter-mile and topped out at a governor-limited 101 mph. While the cargo and passenger van have the same engine as the previous model year, they receive a new nine-speed automatic transmission that will likely impact its city and highway mpg estimates. The removable rear seats follow the same theme, placing functionality and durability over comfort. Power and torque figures for the M54B30 I6 gasoline are 231hp at 5,900rpm and 300Nm at 3,500rpm, the V8 engine carries 360hp at 6,200rpm and 500Nm at 3,500rpm, and the diesel I6 has 218p at 6,500rpm and 500Nm at 2,00rpm - nearly the same figure with the V8 but tuned for available low end torque.
Although all 208 horsepower don’t clock in until 5500 rpm, the full brunt of its 258 lb-ft of torque are available at a low 1250 rpm, ideal for putting payloads in motion (1874 pounds in passenger vans, 2502 pounds in the cargo version); spec the $355 trailer hitch and you can tow up to 4960 pounds. All of our Certified Pre-Owned models have undergone a 150-point inspection, and are backed by the remaining factory warranty. Then you have mandatory insurance coverage for your rental. As tractable as front-wheel-drive vans have become, there is a certain appeal to the Metris’s rear-drive layout, lending it an air of ruggedness, real or not, that escapes the current Ram ProMaster lineup. While the Metris managed to haul its 4820 pounds of mass to a stop from 70 mph in just 189 feet (the much smaller, 3982-pound, front-wheel-drive 2014 Ford Transit Connect did it in 178 feet), the brake pedal remains an enigma. If you’re looking for more power from your German car - we install Autothority performance chips and air mass meters. The German car manufacturer is pinned new headlights and larger grille that is equipped with 3-pointed star logo.
