MB T Class: the brand's sporty-looking van is close to launch

Although we've been talking about it for years, just this week the German brand announced a presentation date for the new Mercedes-Benz T Class. It will be presented online on the 26th of April.

With this completely new model, Mercedes-Benz is now offering a premium small van for, according to the brand, those customers who have an active lifestyle.

Mercedes-Benz Vans will expand its portfolio for the private customer market, including an attractive access model to the brand's lineup and for those customers who want a lot of space, but still prefer to drive a vehicle with compact exterior dimensions.

The T Class combines sporty design with a spacious and variable interior, practical sliding doors, in addition to the comfort, connectivity, attractiveness and safety typical of Mercedes-Benz. The youngest member of the Mercedes-Benz family thus brings a wide range of outstanding design and comfort aspects to the small van segment.

The new T Class will offer a lot of space and will adapt to a wide variety of uses, including transporting people as a reference for public service without compromising in any case your comfort. Its wide sliding side doors on both sides are an example of its easy and comfortable access to the interior. In addition to the traditional propulsion systems, it will have a 100% electric version.

In this segment, Mercedes-Benz Vans has been present since 2012 with Citan with a clear professional orientation.

Based on this new platform, there will be two vehicles available: while the Citan will be a professional customer-oriented vehicle, the T Class will be aimed primarily at the private customer.

The T Class and Citan will be manufactured in cooperation with the Renault-Nissan-Mitsubishi Alliance.
