This stunning, special edition van demonstrates the ultimate in sporting performance. The Dualiner is the height of versatility, sitting pretty on your drive at weekends, a great looker for your business in the week, and it’s a people carrier too, so perfect for any family outings. Powered by a turbo charged 3.0-lire V6 diesel engine, the Sport-X is capable of producing 204bhp and can reach 60mph in just 8.3 seconds, with a maximum speed of 122mph. The Sport-X is a dream to drive. It’s responsive in urban areas, and when you get onto the open road, you’ll have no qualms driving at maximum speed with a load. The turning circle is competitive making manoeuvres easy and the auto transmission is smooth even in low gear. Controlling the wheel is effortless and the luxury interior has everything to make you feel in control. Additional extras to enhance your driving experience include BRABUS 18 inch alloys, a front spoiler and leather trimmed seats.
Useful Mercedes commercial vehicle links Entry into the cabin is made easier by the lower foot-step – a unique feature which sets Mercedes-Benz ahead of its peers. The cabin contains everything you could wish for in style and comfort. We drove the Dualiner which came with 5 seats, privacy glass and child safety locks. Other highlights included cruise control with Speedtronic, a COMAND radio/CD/Navigation system, an integrated mobile phone system and a 6 CD changer.
The Sport-X is incredibly versatile and can be adapted to suit a variety of loads. The seats reduce the maximum payload by 64kg and can be folded in half, or better still removed from the vehicle if necessary. The vehicle comes with a top hinged tailgate which inhibits pallets from being loaded into the back, but coupled with twin sliding doors, there is plenty of access to your load. The anti-slip covering is a good safety measure and works well in wet conditions.
