Top 10 Features for Your Mercedes-Benz Sprinter Conversion Van

The Mercedes-Benz Sprinter van has achieved paramount success and garnered quite the reputation in North America and abroad with usages ranging from a wide variety of business applications to private and recreational purposes. To elaborate further, Mercedes-Benz offers the Sprinter chassis in 3 variants: the Passenger van, Cargo van, and Crew van. Passenger vans can fit up to 8-15 passengers, depending upon default configuration, and include windows throughout the passenger cabin, as these are primarily purchased for a number of different personal usages to limousine and shuttle bus companies and fleet operators among other uses. Cargo vans include a sole row of seats for 2 passengers and reserve the rest of the cabin space for cargo storage, as these are categorized for their commercial purposes being used by shipping operators and businesses seeking to move heavy loads or equipment. The Crew van aims to be a bit more flexible by featuring a hybrid of the cargo and passenger units, by adding an additional row of seating to reduce cargo space and increase passenger space / quantity by a noticeable margin, as these are used as RVs and by small businesses.

It is undeniable that the Mercedes-Benz Sprinter has garnered its widespread acclaim and prestige from the range of custom RV and coach builders that specialize in transforming the chassis into a multitude of unique RVs / recreational vehicles, family vans, limousines / shuttle buses, mobile offices, and high-end luxury vans among other uses.
