The 3500 series (516/519 series) dual rear wheel Sprinters have a heavier factory hitch cross member, and are set up for an electronic brake controller when ordered with the factory towing package (a $415 option in 2014) and are rated @ 7,500 lbs gross trailer weight/750 lbs tongue weight.

The reveal of the eSprinter follows warmly on the heels of the eVito announcement in November last year, although the specs are a little more scarce this time around. This means there’s very little intrusion into the payload (just 135kg for the 3.0t and 3.5t derivatives and 105kg for the 4.6 and 5.0-tonners) and also the chassis doesn’t need to be lifted quite so high (just 120mm at the front and 80mm at the rear).
