Launched for the first time in 2015, the Mercedes Benz V Class has done extremely well in South Africa and globally.
The 2019 facelift refreshed the already dominant model adding focal points that included a restyled and striking front-end design, a sporty and streamlined cockpit as well as a new range of alloy wheels and interior trim options.
" With the introduction of the V-Class five years ago, we showed that a stylish and dynamic presence is also possible in any size. In doing so, we were able to convince families, leisure adventurers and business customers alike that this is the vehicle of choice for both their work and leisure needs. The introduction of the V 300 d into our market means that we continue our success story as we build on the strengths of our MPV by adding more choice, luxury and individuality to the segment,” said Nadia Trimmel, Vice President of Mercedes-Benz Vans South Africa.
The Mercedes Benz V 300 d comes standard in a 7-seat configuration but this can be customised to a 6 or 8-seater, depending on the customer’s needs. Leather seats can be changed from the standard Black Leather to Tartufo Brown Leather, or Silk Beige Leather at no extra cost.
EXCLUSIVE Line - Panoramic sunroof, rear climatised seats and centre console with a built-in drinks cooler.
Customers will also enjoy the luxury of the Night Package regardless of the model trim (AMG line or without). This is to complement the high level on individualization on the V300d
While the fun might be in the rear, for the driver, Intelligent LED lights are offered on the V-Class. The Intelligent LED lights automatically adjust the headlamp range when oncoming traffic is detected. The Adaptive Highbeam Assist system continuously adapts based on the road condition.
Safety highlights include the Driver Assist package that features PRE-SAFE, Lane Keeping Assist and Blind Spot Assist and Active Brake Assist.
