2021 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter Review

byMark Takahashi^{Senior Reviews Editor
Mark Takahashi has worked in the automotive industry since 2001. He has written thousands of car-related articles and tested and reviewed hundreds of vehicles over the course of his career.}

Pros

Excellent interior space with a true walk-through cabin
Hundreds of passenger and cargo configurations and features
Fairly maneuverable for its size
High-class, high-tech interior is uncommon among vans

Cons

Typically costs more than rival full-size vans
Four-cylinder engines feel underpowered for this vehicle size

What's new

New four-cylinder diesel engine now available on cargo models
Some safety features are now standard equipment
Part of the third Sprinter generation introduced for 2019

Full-size vans, with massive interior volume to securely transport cargo or passengers, are as much part of the country's industrial and commercial backbone as pickup trucks. The 2021 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter is one of the most versatile of these boxes on wheels, with a dizzying array of body styles, engine choices and customization options. There's even a four-wheel-drive version that provides enhanced traction on icy roads and can serve as an off-road-capable overlanding van.

Not much changes for the Sprinter in 2021, though there is a new diesel-powered four-cylinder engine option. It's likely the most efficient engine of the Sprinter lineup, which still includes the base gas-powered four-cylinder engine and optional diesel V6. Competition in the full-size van market includes the Chevrolet Express, Ford Transit, Nissan NV and Ram ProMaster. The Sprinter costs more than its rivals but rewards buyers with more refinement and better driving dynamics. Odds are, there's a Sprinter to fit your particular needs. Check out our Expert Rating below to get our full evaluation of the Sprinter's performance, roominess and more.

Edmunds Expert Rating

Our Verdict^{The Edmunds Vehicle Testing Team evaluates a fresh batch of vehicles every week, pairing objective assessments at our test track with real-world driving on city streets, freeways and winding roads. The data we gather results in our Expert Ratings. They’re based on 30-plus scores that cover every aspect of the automotive experience.}

7.4 /10

The Sprinter is one of the best large vans that money can buy. It has acres of cargo and/or passenger space, secure handling, clear visibility and plenty of customization options. Our test van had a few drawbacks, such as underwhelming acceleration and an unsatisfying base stereo, but we'd still recommend the Sprinter to anyone looking for a refined and utilitarian van.

Rated for you by America’s best test team.

Performance

7.0/10

How does the Sprinter drive? We tested a 2500-series passenger van with the base gasoline-powered four-cylinder engine. Getting around town is easy thanks to its well-tuned automatic transmission and easy off-the-line power delivery. But 188 hp just isn't enough to get this van moving with any authority, and that's especially the case if you've got a heavy load or you're going up a grade. We recommend upgrading to the turbodiesel V6.

Our van's brakes were also underwhelming and didn't provide as much stopping confidence as we'd like. Steering and handling, however, lead the class. If you're taking the Scout troop on a mountain retreat, you likely won't have any reservations driving the Sprinter up curvy mountain roads.

Comfort

7.5/10

How comfortable is the Sprinter? The Sprinter doesn't have typical Mercedes-Benz levels of comfort, but it does lead the passenger van segment when it comes to seat comfort. The ride quality is quite stiff, but a full load of passengers and their stuff will likely settle things down a bit.

This big barn-shaped vehicle makes a bit of noise on the road, especially as the wind passes over the tall windshield and large side mirrors. But there isn't much noise from the road or from the four-cylinder engine, even at full throttle. The climate control system deals with high temps relatively well, which is important for a large group on a road trip.

Build & price

Interior

7.5/10

How’s the interior? The Sprinter gets high marks for an abundance of passenger space, a user-friendly control layout and better-than-expected visibility. This generation of Sprinter now comes standard with a rearview camera, which is a big plus, and access to the back rows is relatively easy once you're inside. It's difficult to get in and out of such a tall vehicle, and the driving position isn't perfect, but those aren't deal-breakers.

Shorter drivers will find the driving position to be suboptimal. The driver's seat has height adjustability but it is limited in its range, and the steering wheel is tilt-only — this means you'll have to move pretty far forward if you're of shorter stature.

Technology

6.0/10

How’s the tech? There isn't much tech on a base Sprinter, which is what we tested. The standard infotainment system doesn't have any voice controls, there is no smartphone integration (other than connecting for Bluetooth audio), and the standard stereo has poor sound quality. Thankfully, there are a few USB-C ports throughout the cabin for charging your devices.

Our recommendation — for tech-savvy buyers anyway — is to upgrade to one of the Sprinter's larger touchscreen displays. The Mercedes MBUX touchscreen system is mostly bundled together in larger packages, using a 7-inch or 10.25-inch touchscreen, and it's paired with features such as wireless smartphone charging, integrated navigation and parking sensors.

Blind-spot monitoring was the only driver aid on our test vehicle. It worked well and didn't issue any false or annoying alerts. Lane keeping assist, parking sensors and other driver aids are also optional, but these weren't equipped on our test van.

Storage

8.5/10

How’s the storage? Few vehicles on Earth are as utilitarian as the Sprinter. Massive cargo space behind the fourth row of seats, a number of D-ring cargo tie-down points, and a low load floor mean you can get large items in and secure them with ease. The underseat storage area is massive too. You truly can carry 12 passengers and all their things if you want.

Car seats will be a bit tougher to load because of the high step-in height, but there's plenty of room between each row and several anchor points to secure them.

Small-item storage is prioritized for the front seats. For some reason Mercedes gives you 10(!) cupholders up front. There are small pullout cupholders for the back rows and netted seatback storage for other items.

While capacity varies based on the configuration, a 2500 Sprinter Passenger van has the potential to provide a class-leading 9,480-pound GVWR and a payload capacity of 3,441 pounds. Only a few competitors match those numbers, and most lag far behind. Maximum towing is 5,000 pounds, an impressive number for the class.

Fuel Economy

7.0/10

How’s the fuel economy? The 2500 Sprinter Passenger resides in a heavy-duty category that is exempt from EPA fuel economy testing and labeling. The 2.0-liter engine, though, is relatively efficient when you consider how much weight it's pulling around. Our test van returned 17.1 mpg on our 115-mile city-and-highway evaluation route. We expect the diesel powertrain will outperform the base four-cylinder in this category, but it does have a higher cost of entry.

Value

7.5/10

Is the Sprinter a good value? The Sprinter costs a bit more than most rivals but makes up for it with excellent build quality, a great warranty and multiple attractive prepaid service plans. And while our test vehicle van came with limited optional equipment, it's worth noting that Sprinters can get all sorts of impressive upgrades if you're looking to class things up a bit. The 10.25-inch touchscreen with Mercedes' MBUX is a favorite of ours, and, given the choice, we'd opt for one of the upgraded stereos as well.

Wildcard

7.5/10

While it isn't extraordinarily classy or fantastically unique, the Sprinter is a bit nicer than your average passenger van. It also has more attractive exterior styling and better on-road dynamics than most, making it more enjoyable to drive in most any scenario.

Which Sprinter does Edmunds recommend?

The 2021 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter is as diverse as its buyers. That means there's no single Sprinter model to cover a wide swath of users, but there are seemingly endless configurations to fit your particular needs. We do recommend opting for the diesel-powered V6 as the four-cylinder engines lack sufficient grunt to fully get this big van moving.

Mercedes-Benz Sprinter models

The 2021 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter is a full-size van available in cargo, passenger and crew configurations. All vans come in 144-inch and 170-inch wheelbase lengths, and the longer-wheelbase versions are also available in extra-long cargo and crew configurations. A choice of high roof or standard roof is available on all three configurations.

Mercedes also offers regular 1500 and 2500 models and heavy-duty 3500 and 4500 models. The standard engine on 1500 and 2500 models is a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder (188 horsepower, 258 lb-ft of torque) paired to a nine-speed automatic transmission. New for 2021 is a turbocharged 2.0-liter diesel four-cylinder engine (161 hp, 266 lb-ft) with a seven-speed automatic; it's available on 2500 and 3500 models. Optional on 2500 models and standard on 3500 and 4500 models is a turbocharged 3.0-liter diesel V6 (188 hp, 325 lb-ft) paired to the seven-speed automatic. Rear-wheel drive is standard, and four-wheel drive is optional on 2500 and 3500 models.

Standard equipment on the cargo van includes:

Metal cargo floor
270-degree-opening rear doors
Heated mirrors
Front seats
Cruise control
Air conditioning
Tilt-only steering wheel
Rearview camera
Sound system and two USB ports
Forward collision mitigation (warns you of an impending collision and applies the brakes in certain scenarios)
Crosswind assist (helps the driver stay on course in windy conditions)

The crew van (2500 and up) adds:

Second-row three-seat bench for five-passenger seating
Side-door windows

The passenger van (available in 1500 and 2500 configurations) features:

Three rows of rear seats
Rear interior trim and tinted rear windows

The options list is lengthy and can change depending on configuration, but highlights include:

Driver's side sliding rear door
Heavy-duty suspension
Front and rear parking sensors and a 360-degree parking camera
Upgraded front seats with heating
Mercedes-Benz User Experience (MBUX) infotainment system with either a 7- or a 10.25-inch touchscreen
Navigation system

Cargo and crew vans can be equipped with driver-compartment partitions, a roof fan (or heater), a fixed rear sunroof, roof rails and various interior storage options. The passenger van can be equipped with rear air conditioning.

Optional driver aids for all three models include:

Adaptive cruise control (adjusts speed to maintain a constant distance between the Sprinter and the car in front)
Blind-spot monitoring (alerts you if a vehicle in the next lane over is in your blind spot)
Rear cross-traffic alert (warns you if a vehicle behind you is about to cross your vehicle's path while in reverse)
Lane keeping assist (steers the car back into its lane if it begins to drift over the lane marker)

Safety

Our experts’ favorite Sprinter safety features:

Adaptive Cruise Control: Keeps a set distance behind the car in front of you and brakes automatically when it slows down, adapting to traffic conditions.
Lane Keeping Assist: Monitors lane markings and sends visual and audible warnings if the driver drifts from the lane.
Load-Adaptive Stability Control: Factors in vehicle load and center of gravity and can brake individual wheels and reduce engine power to stabilize the van if wheelspin is detected.

Mercedes-Benz Sprinter vs. Mercedes-Benz Metris

Not everybody needs the huge capabilities that the Sprinter delivers. That's where the Metris comes in. It's smaller than the Sprinter but is less expensive and easier to park. Among other small vans, the Metris earns praise for its refined driving manners, large interior volume, and favorable towing and hauling capacities. It doesn't have as long a list of customization options as the Sprinter, but there are still plenty of choices to get the right fit for you.

Mercedes-Benz Sprinter vs. Ford Transit Cargo Van

Ford's Transit van is the Sprinter's key rival. The Transit is offered in similar body styles with engine choices that are more powerful than the Sprinter's. The Transit also matches the Sprinter when it comes to technology and safety features. As close as these two are, we suggest a deep dive into the capabilities of each to see which might better fit your particular needs.

Mercedes-Benz Sprinter vs. Ram ProMaster Cargo Van

The Sprinter has a wide range of models to satisfy a variety of needs, whether it's hauling people or cargo or both. It also offers impressive towing and hauling capabilities. The Ram ProMaster is more of a workhorse, though, since it lacks the Sprinter's refinement. It also lacks features and options such as all-wheel drive and a diesel engine. But in return, the ProMaster is significantly less expensive.

Should I lease or buy a 2021 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter?

Is it better to lease or buy a car? Ask most people and they'll probably tell you that car buying is the way to go. And from a financial perspective, it's true, provided you're willing to make higher monthly payments, pay off the loan in full and keep the car for a few years. Leasing, on the other hand, can be a less expensive option on a month-to-month basis. It's also good if you're someone who likes to drive a new car every three years or so.
