The ultimate, luxurious people carrier, the Mercedes-Benz V-Class, launched last year, but what options are available?
Read the V-Class launch review here.
Optional extras for your new V-Class
You'll be pleased to know that the Exclusive model, the only new model in the lineup, is so well-specified that only three items will cost you extra!
In the same breath, the V-Class has a price tag of R2 267 768, so it's fair that most items should not cost buyers even more money.
What's on offer in the V-Class in terms of packages?
Pretty much everything and the great news is that your fatigued bank account won't have to work much harder - it's all standard.
Take a look at the packages that all make up part of the deal:
- Aerodynamics package
- Smartphone integration
- Winter package
- Mirror package
- Anti-theft protection package
- Easy-Pack tailgate package
- Traffic Assist package
- Parking Package with 360-degree camera

Ford Tourneo Trend LWB (2024) Launch Report
What will cost you extra money in the V-Class?
There are only the single luxury seats with additional comfort features in the first row—if you choose one, you have to install both, and they're R95 805 each, so prepare to part with an additional R191 610, basically.
However, all metallic body colours are optional except for the standard high-tech silver metallic, with no non-metallic options.
