Mercedes-Benz is refreshing its commercial vehicles range. After the company released a new generation of the Viano, it is also presenting the new Vito.The most noticeable exterior change is the redesigned set of headlights, which offers the commercial vehicle a white collar look. The refresh also includes new front and rear bumpers.
But the most important changes have taken place in the technology area, as the van has made new steps on the efficiency pathway, with its engine range meeting the Euro VI emission standard. The van now offers a 15 percent fuel consumption and CO2 emissions.
The vehicle’s engine range includes four and six cylinder unit offering between 95 and 258 hp, with all the engines being mated to a six speed gearbox. The Vito has also received the BlueEFFICIENCY technology as an option, with the eco features including a stop/start system and a set of low resistance tires.
The new generation of the Vito is also a better workhorse, as its payload has been increased through the use of a retuned chassis and suspension. The automaker offers different suspension configurations for the high-payload panel van and the comfort-orientated crewbus model.
The van’s comfort level has also improved, as the interior has been fitted with more ergonomic controls, a new color mix and better soundproofing.
“The new generation of Mercedes-Benz Vito is a benchmark among vans. Its new drive system is extremely efficient and delivers top performance,” stated the press release.
