Models
Metris Models
- Metris Cargo Van — Work Van
- Metris Passenger Van
Built to keep you in motion, a Metris Van from Mercedes-Benz offers great value, with all models starting below the Sprinter range. Capable of carrying both cargo and passengers, the Metris is a mid-size multi-purpose van designed to accommodate Bay Area catering companies, floral shops, San Francisco hotels, shuttle services, and more.
Sprinter Models
- Sprinter Cargo Van — Top-Rated Work Van
- Sprinter Crew Van
- Sprinter Passenger Van
- Sprinter Cab Chassis
The Sprinter Cargo Van is the best van to work with, but there are four models in total — double that of the Metris. Standard and High roof configurations are available for the Sprinter.
A Sprinter Cargo Van may appeal to small business owners in Belmont, electricians throughout the Bay Area, appliance repair companies from Redwood City, plumbers, and contractors. Delivery services from San Mateo and shipping and logistics companies can also put a Sprinter Cargo Van to use.
Design Differences
The Sprinter is longer than the Metris. A Sprinter Cargo Van has a wheelbase that's either 144 or 170 inches long. Wheelbase lengths for the Metris are between 126 and 135 inches.
A Metris Passenger Van seats eight passengers, while a Metris Cargo Van offers 199 cubic feet of max cargo volume. Sprinter Passenger Vans can seat 15 passengers to help San Francisco tourist agencies and schools or daycares around San Mateo. With 281 cubic feet of cargo volume, the Sprinter Cargo Van is more spacious than the Metris.

Metris Vans deliver 208 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque. Sprinter Vans output 170 standard horsepower but up to 211 horsepower and have multiple diesel engine options.
