Original source: ニフティニュース

In Brief

The Mercedes-Benz Sprinter cargo van is gaining popularity for vanlife on the US West Coast. The L2H2 model offers over 1.9 m of interior height and is available in nine body variants.

The Mercedes-Benz Sprinter cargo van is becoming increasingly popular for conversion into a mobile home on the US West Coast. One reason cited is the discontinuation of the Ford Econoline in 2014.

The L2H2 model offers an interior height of over 1.9 meters, allowing occupants to stand upright. The van is available in nine body variants ranging from 5.2 to 7.4 meters in length. It is powered by a 2.1-liter turbocharged diesel engine and features modern driver assistance systems, including adaptive cruise control. The spacious cargo area can be easily adapted for various needs.
