2012 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter Van 2500 Std Roof 144 WB

The Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 2500 stared down the cargo van competition and emerged victorious, earning top honors in the Vincentric Best Fleet Value in America awards for 2012. By claiming the lowest lifecycle costs in 18 of 20 scenarios measured, it left the Express/Savana and Ford E250 battling for the runner-up spots. The Sprinter’s diesel technology provided strong fuel economy, and with low insurance and repair costs created a combination that couldn’t be beat.
