This Benz can do quite a lot and carries good tech as well

Its been a while since we talked about vans and one has rightly caught our attention. It is a cargo-people hauler in the name of Mercedes Benz Sprinter. It has lots of things to fall in love with it, besides its domineering yet friendly shape.

The Sprinter Benz is given in two powertrain options: the first one is a 2.0-liter inline-four engine that produces 188 hp and the other one is a 3.0-liter V inline-four engine that also breathes 188 hp. You can get a seven-speed gearbox and a nine-speed automatic to pair with either.

In addition, you pick either rear- or all-wheel drive. Over and above all these, the Sprinter is specific because of its heavily improved technology specs.

To start with, Mercedes has brought this hauler with it’s brand’s new infotainment system called MBUX( (Mercedes-Benz User Experience). This is the second car in the Mercedes lineup to wear this forward-focused technology.

The van also goes a little out of its way and sets its self apart from competitors. For the touchscreen, you can have a 7.0- or a 10.3-inch affixed just atop the dashboard. The touchscreen is a first for the Sprinter too.

The steering wheel is the other part of the car that demands special mention. It has been enhanced with a set of touchpads and button settings sharing various functionalities.

Those on the left side, are meant to the infotainment screen while the controls on the right side can have functionalities such as the menu for the touchscreen, voice control, and phone features.
