Whether you are on the motorway, a country road or in city traffic, the adaptive MULTIBEAM LED headlamps give you a clear view ahead. Individually controllable LEDs adjust to the traffic situation, and intelligent light functions illuminate the road effectively.
Folding the mirrors in protects them from damage in tight car parks and car washes. Controls in the driver’s door fold them in and out electrically.
Open the side door after dark and the Mercedes-Benz logo is projected onto the ground beside it in LED light. It is a stylish, exclusive touch, and the extra light makes getting in and out easier.
Chrome trim on the louvres adds a touch of shine to the radiator grille and gives the front of the Vito a distinctive look.
A generous opening means bulky items and luggage load and unload easily through the tailgate. At its centre, a chrome-plated Mercedes star finishes the rear design.
The optional double-wing rear doors open right back to the side wall, where magnetic retainers hold them in place. With the doors fully open, the van can reverse straight up to a loading ramp or to the load itself, which helps when space is tight.
Sliding doors on both sides give you more ways in. Loading, unloading and getting in and out become faster and more flexible, particularly in tight city streets.
Rear-wheel drive and a spacious cargo area come in a van under 1.95 m high, so the Vito Panel Van fits into nearly every garage.*
MBUX (Mercedes-Benz User Experience) is an intelligent multimedia system that can be expanded over time. Its high-resolution touchscreen and range of interfaces bring together a wide choice of communication and infotainment functions.
A 14 cm (5.5-inch) TFT colour display sits in the instrument cluster, improving ergonomics and enhancing the look of the driver’s area. It is very easy to read and shows a wealth of information on the van’s operating status. Menus are selected and operated safely and conveniently through buttons on the multifunction steering wheel.
Add a third seat up front with the optional two-seater front passenger bench. Each place has its own three-point seat belt, seat belt warning and height-adjustable head restraint. The one-piece seat cushion is removable.
On long journeys, the Seat Comfort Package makes a noticeable difference. The driver’s and front passenger’s seats both gain seat cushion length adjustment and 4-way lumbar support, for a highly ergonomic seating position.
Mounted high at the rear, the optional LED light strip lights the load compartment with a minimum of shadow. It uses little power and is built for a long service life.
For heavy cargo that concentrates a lot of weight on a small area, the wood floor is the robust choice. It uses a 10 mm screen-printed base plate, glued repeatedly and fixed to the load compartment floor.
A choice of partitions is available to suit the way you work, including full bulkheads and half-height partitions with windows.
Keep your cargo secure with a choice of fastening systems, such as the load securing rail system or tie-down rails on the side wall waistrail.
As standard, painted panels on the load compartment side walls protect the metal from damage during loading and unloading. On request, wooden cladding can be fitted up to roof height, and the roof area can be lined in wood as well.
Nine gears allow the 9G-TRONIC automatic transmission to keep engine speed as low as possible in every driving situation. The large ratio spread brings added agility and pulling power in almost all conditions, and it improves the van’s ability to pull away.
The main tank holds around 70 litres, extending the range and saving time with fewer refuelling stops. It is particularly recommended for vans that regularly travel long distances.
Handling stays impressively good on the Basic suspension, and the driving dynamics remain stable even with a full load.
Mercedes-Benz Navigation accepts input by touch or by voice and calculates routes quickly. It uses local and up-to-date online information to guide you to your destination reliably.
The Smartphone Integration package connects your phone to the multimedia system via Apple CarPlay® or Android Auto®. Your most important apps are then available on the display, including third-party apps such as Spotify.
Wireless sensors monitor the air pressure in all four tyres from 20 km/h. If pressure drops, the driver is alerted, helping to improve driving comfort and extend tyre life.
Digital Extras connect your Vito to the Mercedes-Benz app. You can lock and unlock the van remotely and check its location at any time. Maintenance notifications are sent when wear on parts is detected, and software updates can be installed over the air without a workshop visit.
Once set, TEMPMATIC semi-automatic air conditioning regulates the interior temperature automatically. Keeping the cabin at a pleasant temperature also helps the driver stay alert over a long working day.
THERMOTRONIC automatically controls temperature, airflow and air distribution in two separate climate zones. The driver and front passenger can each set their own climate, and both stay comfortable even in high outside temperatures.
Eight-way adjustment, a luxury head restraint and an armrest are all part of the comfort seat. It is designed for relaxed driving, including on long journeys.
The comfort suspension seat has two air cushions in the backrest for 4-way lumbar support. The driver and front passenger can adjust them individually to relieve back strain and support an ergonomic sitting posture on longer trips.
The Parking Package combines a 360° camera with Active Parking Assist, making it easier to find a space and to park. A 3D surround view displays the whole area around the vehicle, including from a bird’s-eye perspective and below the window line.*
Radar-based Active Distance Assist DISTRONIC automatically maintains a set distance to the vehicle in front. It is designed to reduce the load on the driver on motorways and in stop-and-go traffic.*
Active Brake Assist can help to avoid an accident with other road users, or reduce its severity, in a range of situations. These include vehicles driving ahead, stationary vehicles and road users crossing or turning. It also works with oncoming traffic when you overtake.*
The Blind Spot Assist with Rear Cross Traffic Alert uses visual and audible warnings to help avoid accidents when changing lanes or reversing. If a vehicle is detected in the blind spot, a red triangle appears in the exterior mirror on that side.*
Active Lane Keeping Assist monitors the area in front of the van and can prevent it from leaving its lane unintentionally. It does this with a lane-correcting steering intervention, and the driver also feels a warning through the steering wheel.*
ATTENTION ASSIST is designed to help prevent microsleep, particularly at night and on long journeys. When it identifies typical signs of drowsiness or inattention, a visual and audible warning recommends that the driver takes a break.*
The instrument cluster and media display continuously show the speed limit detected by Traffic Sign Assist. No-entry signs and no-overtaking restrictions appear there too, as does the end of each restriction. It is particularly helpful through roadworks, and it can give visual and audible warnings if the speed limit is exceeded.*
