With the facelift version launched earlier this year, the 2014 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter is now a more... let's stay stylish van, acquiring quite a great deal of modern design features borrowed from the passenger cars of the Stuttgart manufacturer.
Not only that, but the refresh also brought a range of driver assistance systems, including the standard Crosswind Assist and optional Collision Prevention Assist and Blind Spot Assist.
December brings yet another never-before-seen addition to the Sprinter range in the shape of a hardcore all-terrain version with all-wheel drive.
The newly-released Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 4x4 looks and most likely performs like a very oddly-shaped old-school off-roader.
Its all-wheel drive system can be engage at the press of a button, whereupon the 4ETS electronic traction system takes care of the rest.
With optional Downhill Speed Regulation (DSR), Hill-Start Assist, a Low Range reduction gear, off-road tires and a raised body (by 110 mm at the front and 80 mm at the rear), the most bad-ass-looking production Sprinter can conquer terrains previously reserved for real off-roaders.
The raised body gives it an approach angle of 28 degrees, a break-over angle of 25 degrees and a departure angle of 27 degrees for the standard-wheelbase version, while the 610 mm fording depth gives it enough credentials to battle a Mercedes-Benz G-Class.
