The 2025 Mercedes Sprinter van is set to impress with a range of exciting new features, blending innovation, versatility, and performance. Known for its reliability and adaptability, the latest model takes things a step further with some all new technology and safety systems.
Whether you're converting your Sprinter to a camper van or using it for business, the 2025 Sprinter promises to deliver an elevated driving experience and increased functionality, making it the ideal platform for a wide variety of applications. Let’s explore some of the standout features for the new model year.
The Changes We're Excited About
P3Z Winter Package+
All new for 2025 from Mercedes comes the P3Z Winter Package+. This package includes some really nice cold weather features including:
Heated, Leather Steering Wheel
Heater Passenger Seat
Driver's seat standard
Additional insulation in the cockpit
Wet Wiper System
Heated Steering Wheel + Passenger Seat
All of these items are purpose built to improve the already stellar winter performance of the Sprinter. We can't wait to try out the new heated steering wheel this season. It's also nice to see Mercedes focusing on passenger comfort as well with the addition of dual heated seats.
Additional Insulation
Though we already offer a tri-layer insulation from Thinsulate, we are excited to see that Sprinter vans have a renewed focus on insulation. This will not only improve the interior van temperature delta in the winter and summer months, it will also reduce ambient road noise in the cockpit year round.
Combine With Off Highway Van's Arctic Package
With a renewed focus on winter performance from Mercedes, why not lean in? Off Highway Van is offering an all new "Arctic Package" for our 2025 camper van models. This package includes upgrades like:
4-Season Hydronic Heating
Nokani Hakkapelita Snow Tires
Tri-Layer Thinsulate Insulation
Espar Airtronic Heater
Combining the all new P3Z winter package with Off Highway Van's arctic package ensures that your van has maximum insulation as well as all of the systems you need to keep you and your family warm throughout the winter months.
All New 2025 Mercedes Sprinter Safety + Usability Features
The 2025 Mercedes Sprinter incorporates all the traditional driver aids like blind spot assist, distronic, and 360 degree parking camera package, but now adds new aids to make navigating tight spaces, parking, and even driving in traffic.
SideGuard Assist
Think of SideGuard as blind spot monitoring on steroids. This two stage monitoring system assists with lane changes or any place where your visibility may be restricted by blind spots and actively assists with blind cornering.
Digital Rear View Mirror
Space on the interior of your van runs at a heavy premium. With technology advancements the days of rear windows and a rearview mirror are behind us.
Though you can still choose rear windows as an add on to your van conversion, many van lifers have opted for a digital rearview mirror and taken back the rear doors of their van to be used as storage, shelving, etc. This mirror works in tandem with your 360 cameras to ensure you're never surprised and always prepared when you're backing up.
The End of the 7" Display
7" displays are so last year. Starting in 2025, all Mercedes Sprinter vans will come standard with the C03 infotainment screen (10.25"). Now you'll have a larger display for media, your 360 cameras, and more!
The Changes We're Not So Excited About
The changes we're not so excited about is fairly short and self-explanatory this year.
Starting in 2025, all Mercedes Sprinter vans have seen a 2% price increase across the board. That's just over a $1,000 increase to both the 144 and 170 AWD chassis. However, this increase does come with improved functionality and performance listed above so we can't be too upset.
