2010 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter Model is Available Now!
If you have yet to hear the good news, Ray Catena Mercedes-Benz of Union is excited to announce our new offering of the Mercedes-Benz Sprinter! We’re not just a world leader in premium passenger cars, Mercedes-Benz is also the world’s largest manufacturer of commercial vehicles, setting standards since the first van was created in 1896! The following excerpts come from an informative article we found over at WardsAuto.com:
During a media preview for the Sprinter, Claus Tritt, vice president-operations for Daimler Vans USA LLC, said that the heart of the truck is the motor and the 2010 model has a lot more heart than its predecessor. The Sprinter motor has 3.0L turbodiesel V-6 which boasts 188 hp and peak torque of 325 lb.-ft (441 Nm) – increases of 34 hp and 40 lb.-ft. (54 Nm), respectively.
“The ’10 Sprinter’s improved performance is expected to be a key selling feature as the van, for the first time in North America, is available as a Mercedes. Since its debut here in 2001, a launch that signaled stark change for the commercial-van segment, the Sprinter was sold under the Dodge banner and the Freightliner brand, which still is owned by Daimler.”
As of today, over one million Mercedes-Benz Sprinter vans have been sold worldwide: an impressive testament to our expertise. If you would like to read the full WardsAuto.com article click here.
