The Mercedes-Benz V-Class and Vito model ranges have been popular amongst South Africans and for good reason. While the more luxurious V-Class models appeal to families, shuttle services and other businesses that require a people carrier, the Vito range most certainly draws attention from businesses that either have to transport goods regularly or bring their equipment with them to the job site.  

But will the new models finally convince you to sell your car quickly and easily with our Instant Offer tool here? Let us tell you a little more about the new V-Class and Vito models before you start your search for new or used Mercedes-Benz V-Class and Vito models on AutoTrader here.

Styling

While the profile of the new V-Class and Vito models remains similar to that of the outgoing iteration upfront, there is unmistakably a new design. The grille is much larger, and on the V-Class models get a chrome treatment, while the more utilitarian Vito range gets matt black plastic.  

As can be expected, the headlamps and taillamps, as well as the front and rear bumpers, have been given an update to meet the new design language of the latest models. 

Interior

The design of the interior also has been updated to match Mercedes-Benz's current styling language. But this is not where it stops. While the German automaker hasn't yet specified about the new technologies, it says that the new V-Class and Vito models will offer a host of equipment, driver-assistance systems and functionality on the interior.

Conclusion

While there is very little information about the available powertrains, the expected prices and standard safety and infotainment specifications, more of this information will become available closer to the local introduction, which should take place between 18 and 24 months from now.
