2020 Metris trim level differences

The Mercedes-Benz Metris is a compact van built for carrying a lot of goods or people. Businesses and fleets hauling products will lean toward the Metris Worker Cargo and the optioned-up Metris Cargo. Families and shuttle services should consider the Metris Worker Passenger or the cushy Metris Passenger with up to eight seats.

All Metris vans are powered by a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine (208 horsepower, 258 lb-ft of torque) mated to a seven-speed automatic transmission. Cargo versions come with two front seats, while Passenger models can be ordered with seating for up to eight passengers.

The Metris Worker Cargo has a sliding passenger side door and swing-out rear doors. Both front seats are manually adjustable, and the steering wheel tilts up and down. Air conditioning, a 5.8-inch color touchscreen radio, and a backup camera are standard. It also comes with safety equipment such as Crosswind Assist, hill start assist and a stability control system.

Stepping up to the Metris Cargo Van enables buyers to choose a long-wheelbase version, plus extra wide-opening rear doors or a rear liftgate. It also includes an automatic engine stop-start system and a ton of options the Worker Cargo doesn't have — navigation, alloy wheels, body-colored bumpers, roof rails, dual sliding doors, and heated windows and mirrors are all available.

The Metris Worker Passenger comes with seven seats inside, plus dual sliding doors and the choice of 180-degree rear doors or a liftgate. Buyers can upgrade to cruise control, power-sliding doors and body-colored bumpers. Additional equipment includes rain-sensing wipers, faux leather upholstery, a blind-spot monitoring system, roof rails and more.

The top-level Metris Passenger comes with two additional seating options: five seats or eight seats. You can also add 17-inch alloy wheels, a premium interior, power-adjustable front seats, a Cold Weather package, a comfort-tuned suspension and additional safety features.

All Metris models now come with a complimentary trial of Mercedes Pro Connect, a vehicle and fleet management system designed to make businesses more efficient. Also, a new Weekender camper van package is available for the Metris Passenger through the company's MasterSolutions upfitter program. It includes a pop-up roof with sleeping for two, a sliding rear bench seat that converts into a two-person bed, and swiveling front seats. Metris Weekender upgrades include an awning, mosquito netting, solar panels, a pull-out kitchen, a tent for the rear liftgate, and more.

Which 2020 Metris trim does Edmunds recommend?

Shoppers can choose between the Metris Passenger Van for people-moving and the windowless Metris Cargo Van for hauling, which will suit fleets in the mobile service industry. Both models offer a bare-bones Worker version that is significantly less expensive, but you miss out on a long list of additional equipment including optional safety and comfort features.
