The Mercedes-Benz Sprinter and Volkswagen Crafter –<br />
which one you ultimately choose will primarily depend on<br />
whether you like their appearance. Because when it comes<br />
to technical innovation and equipment, both models are<br />
very advanced.<br />
The ergonomically<br />
designed driver’s cab<br />
promises maximum<br />
comfort and safety<br />
and is optionally<br />
equipped with passenger,<br />
head and side<br />
airbags as well as an<br />
axially and vertically<br />
adjustable steering<br />
column.<br />
ally and vertically adjustable steering<br />
column are optional. Central locking<br />
with remote control and electric windows<br />
are also basic fittings.<br />
With three wheelbases, four loading<br />
space lengths and three roof heights,<br />
as well as a maximum loading space<br />
volume of 17 m3, the Crafter offers<br />
the perfect solution for every transport<br />
need. The visual design of the<br />
Crafter has nothing in common with<br />
its predecessor. With striking lines,<br />
characterised by vertical clear-glass<br />
headlights and side protection strips,<br />
the new model is reminiscent of a<br />
modern, powerful truck design.<br />
The path to the future<br />
With around 1.3 million units sold,<br />
the Sprinter is currently the market<br />
leader for vans with a total weight<br />
of 3.5 t. The new LastenTransporter<br />
(LT) from Volkswagen Nutzfahrzeuge<br />
is continuing a success story in its<br />
class which it started more than 30<br />
years ago.<br />
