Mercedes Sprinter: next generation teaser

Do you like this rendering of the next Mercedes Benz Sprinter full-size commercial van? We think it take the working van image to the next level. It’s no secret that Mercedes has been working on the next generation of the Sprinter. We have seen several prototypes in the Rocky Mountains of Colorado. Unfortunately, we do not have images of the prototypes, but we can report that the camouflaged vans have a front-end design that closely resembles the current Mercedes GLS-class SUV.

What do you think about the looks of this van concept rendering? Let us know in the comments below.

While the details on the next Sprinter van are far and few between, there are hints that suggest the new commercial van will have a next generation of connected telematics technology to enable a more efficient fleet management.

Automation is the name of the game in commercial vehicles across the board, and the next Sprinter is likely to receive a healthy doze on high-tech features.

Mercedes is building a new manufacturing facility in South Carolina to build Sprinter and Metris vans. The next-generation Sprinter is a likely candidate to be built there for the North American market.
