Updated, New Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 4x4 Van 2025 , With Steel Blue Color
Starting from $53,195
2025 Sprinter updates begin with a new Hightech Silver trim and include a remixing of package content and standard and optional features. Tire pressure monitoring is now standard on dual-wheel models, rain-sensing wipers are now standard, and the Comfort Plus package adds a heated steering wheel. The blind spot monitoring system has the ability to warn drivers of a cyclist to their right when making a right turn, and the 360-degree camera system now scans the area immediately in front of the van and warns of a pedestrian or cyclist.
The Sprinter relies solely on diesel power for two reasons (except for the eSprinter EV, reviewed separately). The base engine is a 2.0-liter turbodiesel rated at 168 horsepower and 295 pound-feet of torque. The optional high-output engine is rated at 208 hp and 332 pound-feet. Both feed a nine-speed automatic transmission; all-wheel drive is available, but only with the high-output engine. While it's not as powerful as the Ford Transit's 3.5-liter EcoBoost V-6, which makes 310 horses and 400 pound-feet, or the 6.6-liter V-8 in the GMC Savana, which produces 401 ponies and 464 pound-feet, The Sprinter's diesels deliver dutifully. without any sense of urgency. While no van has razor-sharp handling, the Sprinter's standard load-adaptive stability control and available crosswind assist at least help keep it out of trouble in risky situations.
The 2025 Sprinter can tow up to 7,500 pounds when equipped with the high-output diesel engine, but the standard diesel is only good for 5,000 pounds. The passenger van is also good at towing 5000 pounds, but only in the regular-length, 12-passenger version, not the 15-passenger version. The Sprinter's maximum payload is 6812 pounds, but that requires opting for the Cargo van with the high-output engine in its heavy-duty 4500 chassis; The passenger van was rated at 3307 pounds.
Full-size minivan interiors have always been plain from the factory, but the Sprinter offers some comfort features. The Comfort Package Plus brings a variety of features, including contoured, power-adjustable seats with lumbar support and an overhead control panel, and available leather trim for the standard tilt steering wheel. There is also a swivel seat option for front passengers with a lower seat base, which can assist with entry and exit. Most importantly, the Cargo van offers a maximum of 533 cubic feet of cargo space; The Crew van can swallow a maximum of 371 cubes and the Passenger van can even accommodate 111 cubes. Speaking of which, the 144-inch wheelbase Passenger Van can seat 12 people comfortably, while the 170-inch wheelbase version can accommodate 15 passengers.
Given the focus on utility, Infotainment and connectivity options in full-size vans often lean towards simple functionality rather than strikingly cool presentation.
