Exceeding the Limits of the Mercedes Metris Conversion
Known overseas as Mercedes-Benz Vito for cargo units and the Mercedes-Benz Viano or V-Class for passenger models and as the Mercedes-Benz Metris in North America, these light commercial vans have achieved spectacular sales records and massive success since their inception. With the towing capacity of an American truck, but the drivability of a European sedan, this multi purpose vehicle (MPV) is used by various individuals ranging from families, outdoor adventurers and executive VIPs to hotel managers and fleet operators.
With the widespread acclaim from abroad, Mercedes-Benz saw it would be natural to introduce the Vito and Viano / V-Class into the North American market, as ultimately in light of the mass success of their line of Mercedes-Benz Sprinter vans the minivan was showed a whole lot of promise. In 2016, Mercedes-Benz (Daimler AG) released the now dubbed Mercedes-Benz Metris van with 2 versions, a cargo and passenger unit.
