Mercedes-Benz has unveiled the second-generation of its all-electric eSprinter panel vehicle, with the large van boasting two lengths, three battery sizes and plenty of flexibility for conversions.
Mercedes-Benz’s new electric van will be launched in the US and Canada in the second half of 2023, and in Europe by the end of the year.
According to Mercedes, the new eSprinter comes with a multitude of technical innovations. The battery has a usable capacity of 113kWh and a range of up to 400km, with the manufacturer claiming it can travel up to 500km in urban areas. During a test drive in October 2022, the eSprinter covered the 475km distance from Stuttgart to Munich and back on one charge.
From mid-2025, Mercedes-Benz aims to launch only purely electric van models on the market. For this purpose, the company is relying on its new electric platform, which will initially be used on three continents.
