7 Give yourself a comfortable lead The conditions in which you operate your van aren t getting any easier. So it s good that you can at least count on the Sprinter to lighten the strain: expect high standards of operating ease and convenience, lots of space and plenty of clever solutions. On top of this, the Sprinter also offers you a wide range of practical and innovative equipment which you can mix and match to suit your requirements. After all, you re in the driving seat. The Sprinter sets standards in driver comfort and control, largely due to a new instrument panel that takes design, materials quality and ergonomics to the next level. Numerous convenience features also offer the driver important benefits in terms of active safety. Generous accommodation for all occupants Driver s seat with extensive adjustment capabilities Low interior noise level Steering wheel adjustable for height and reach Multifunction steering wheel with trip computer as an optional extra Handy joystick-style shift lever Power windows for driver and co-driver Powerful heating and ventilation system Latest-generation radios (optional equipment) Optional PARKTRONIC parking aid front and rear with audible signal and visual display in the exterior mirror and on the instrument panel New ECO GEAR 6-speed manual gearbox for all models New 2-stage turbo engines (OM651) for 4-cylinder models Hill start assist for vehicles with manual transmission Central locking with radio remote control as standard Large heated mirrors with integrated indicator 7G-TRONIC automatic transmission optionally available for the CDI models (3.0 V6) Sprinter 318, 518 only Optional twin co-driver s seat with folding table and stowage compartment Sprinter 13

8 Convincing on the road and on the balance sheet too Cost-efficiency is essential in running a successful business and it s one of the factors that have helped to make the Sprinter so popular. Our engineers have paid particularly close attention to aspects of the vehicle which affect your bottom line: reliability, long service life and engines that combine fuel economy with ample power reserves. In addition, if you often have to contend with difficult operating conditions, our reinforced suspension for rugged terrain is standard. Reasons for the Sprinter s excellent overall economy include high quality standards, exemplary engineering, good resale values and state-of-the-art engines. Fuel consumption in the 4-cylinder and 6-cylinder CDI diesel engines with manual transmission is economical. The ASSYST service computer helps to reduce service costs: it allows flexible oil change intervals of km on average for diesel vehicles, depending on the intensity of vehicle usage and driving style. 2-Year unlimited km warranty There is also a 12-year corrosion perforation warranty Our engines meet Euro4 and Euro5 emission standard Fuel/water separator filter standard across all models Easy access to maintenance points Large cargo capacity and high payload for economical transport operations Sprinter 15

9 Your safety is paramount There s no such thing as too many safety features. That s why we ve made every effort to ensure that the Sprinter offers the driver, co-drivers, passengers and other road users the highest possible degree of protection. One example is ADAPTIVE ESP. The Sprinter s ADAPTIVE ESP system which takes account of the load status represents another positive development in the van segment. But it is only one of many active and passive safety features which help the Sprinter to set new standards. ADAPTIVE ESP Electronic Stability Program in combination with anti-lock braking system (ABS), acceleration skid control (ASR), Brake Assist (BAS) and electronic brake force distribution (EBD) An ESP system which for the first time automatically adapts to changes in the vehicle load ESP Trailer stability assist for vehicles with ex-factory towbar Very good crash performance Head restraints with 2-way adjustment standard on all seats; 4-way adjustment optionally available Driver airbag as standard Optional front airbag for single or twin co-driver s seat Three-point seat belts on all seats; with belt tensioners for driver and co-driver Improved hydraulic brake system for even better braking performance Adaptive brake lights as standard Both exterior mirrors have integral wide-angle auxiliary mirrors Optional bi-xenon headlamps with Add-Light System and cornering light function Optional rain sensor with Headlamp Assist Bulb failure indicator Practical load-securing system comprising anchoring rings with increased load rating as well as optional lashing rails in the floor, sidewalls and below the roof frame; tensioning straps optional Central locking with radio remote control and improved anti-theft protection The above figure shows various activated airbags (maximum deployment) for illustrative purposes only Sprinter 17

11 Standard equipment Optional equipment Waistline lashing rails In conjunction with load-securing straps, the sidewall lashing rails can be used to secure medium-tall bulky cargoes. Load-securing rings in the load compartment floor The load-securing rings are used in conjunction with optional straps to prevent the load from shifting. Lashing rails under roof frame In conjunction with load-securing straps, the lashing rails under the roof frame can be used to secure tall, bulky cargoes. Side rub strips Wide plastic strips help to prevent minor damage to the bodywork. Load-securing system Lashing rails fitted flush with the floor are a fast and simple means of restraining cargoes of varying sizes. Bi-xenon headlamps with Add-Light System and cornering light function Better illumination of the area immediately to the side of the vehicle enhances safety, especially on tight bends, at junctions and when manoeuvring.
