This is one van you would not expect to see tuned or modified in any shape or form possible.
Well, today is the day we see such a car in action with the better transmission, higher torque output, and 4×4 transmission everything installed in the work van we all know – The Mercedes-Benz Sprinter.
The huge van guarantees you a trip to wherever you want without any concern about traction and torque needed to climb somewhere, unlike any ordinary car, this one is made for things like this.
The Sprinter is now out on the market including an all-wheel-drive powertrain for people searching for more traction, and currently, Vansports.de shows off upgrades to form the van more rugged for purchasers who need to go even farther off the grid.
This Van comes loaded with a lot of pieces for underbody defending that guard the engine, transmission, and rear differential using 8-millimeter or 6-millimeter thick aluminum panels, counting on the section. To defend the outside, there are tubular rocker panels in matte black, and fender protectors cover the wheel arches. The van rides on 18-inch, five-spoke wheels with a black end and chunky, all-terrain tires wrapped around them. The company sells these parts as a set for €7,780 ($8,403 at current exchange rates). As a choice, there are diamond-pattern metal plates that defend the entrance into the side door and rear.
Vansports is already thinking about some future upgrades for the Sprinter. The company plans to introduce a roof rack with work lights thereon. An air-intake tube would improve the van’s water wading depth. Rock sliders are under development.
The Sprinter may be a common platform for making motorhomes, and elements like this could be a step into modifying one into an overlander. If building a custom vehicle, is not quite your style, then there are companies that build ready-made vehicles, for example, Storyteller Overland offers a car with a battery sturdy enough to run air conditioning overnight, and there’s a shower that works either outside or within the vehicle. Alternatively, Outside Van contains a concept for an off-roading recreational vehicle that has a target of being light-weight and economical.
