Sportsmobile Sprinter 4x4

[haven]

Mercedes charges a fortune for the 4x4 option for the Sprinter ($20,000 if I remember correctly). So it would turn a $45K truck into a $65K model.

I can't verify this rumor, but I can report to you that there have been at least four previous times since MBz started bringing the van in that "a 4x4 NAFTA version will DEFINITELY be available next year," and it never happened. Be skeptical, and follow discussions on sprinter-source.com to get the latest. Maybe this year is the year.

FWIW, the manufacturer rep at Sprinterfest East said a 4matic based system should be available in 18 months or so, which also coincides with the next gen 4 cylinder turbodiesel.

At least SOMEBODY is out there doin' it...

Thanks for posting, Theo.
