The 2024 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter is an incredibly versatile option for a wide range of cargo needs, and business owners can customize it to their liking. It’s worth noting that Mercedes-Benz has made a significant decision to phase out all gas-powered vans, including the Sprinter, which is its biggest van offering in the United States.
This means that the 2024 Mercedes Sprinter may be the final gas-powered van of its kind, as the company has shifted its focus to producing exclusively electric models for all its van lineups.

For 2024, the engine menu is pruned from three to two: a standard-output 170-hp diesel and a high-output 211-hp diesel. In the cab, the 2024 Sprinter gains a colour display in the instrument cluster and a heated driver’s seat as standard equipment. There are also two new packages, one that improves access through the rear doors and another that adds full hardboard side-wall panelling in the cargo bay, a wood cargo floor, floor-level lashing rails with anchors, waist-high lashing rails, cargo lashing points on the upper rails, and six D-rings. The battery-electric E-Sprinter, which we review separately, is a new trim for 2024.
The Mercedes-Benz Sprinter is a versatile and well-known full-size van that has been available for almost three decades. Recently, the manufacturer has been reducing the number of available build combinations. The Sprinter comes in cargo, crew, and passenger body styles, in different roof heights, and with a dual-rear-wheel axle. Although its MSRPs are generally higher than those of its competitors, it offers more comfort, technology, and refinement. The van has vast interior space, making it easy to fit, and has enormous aftermarket support. It is equipped with a 170-hp diesel and a high-output 211-hp diesel, as the gas engine has been discontinued since 2023.
The Sprinter uses a nine-speed automatic transmission on every trim, and the optional 4Matic all-wheel-drive system is similar to those found in Mercedes-Benz passenger cars like the E-class and S550. The Sprinter is equipped with a 10.3-inch touchscreen and various driver-assist features. It is popular among metropolitan delivery fleets, overlanding enthusiasts, and #VanLife enthusiasts due to its amenities, easy driving, range of customization, and off-road capability.
