To meet customer requirements flexibly, Mercedes-Benz Vans will offer both state-of-the-art combustion engines vans alongside electric vehicles on a single architecture in the future.
Regardless of the drivetrain, this new vehicle architecture allows for a clear differentiation between privately positioned vans in the luxury segment and commercially positioned transporters in the premium segment. Both variants, VAN.EA and VAN.CA, share around 70 percent of common parts and will be produced on the same assembly line. This new van architecture allows for maximum synergies, driving economies of scale. With a highly flexible product portfolio, Mercedes-Benz Vans is securing a competitive market position for the future.
