Mercedes-Benz Electric Vans: Range and Charging Options That Keep You Moving

As the demand for efficient, sustainable transportation grows, Mercedes-Benz continues to lead the charge, with a trio of electric vans designed to meet the diverse needs of businesses, professionals and families, alike. Whether you're delivering in the city, transporting cargo across regions, towing heavy loads, or simply packing up the family for a weekend away, there's a van tailored to your every need.

Let’s take a closer look at the eSprinter, eVito, and eCitan, focusing on what matters most to electric van buyers: range and charging performance.

eSprinter: Maximum Range, Unmatched Capacity

If your business demands long-range capability and mVitoaximum space, the eSprinter sets the benchmark. Offering up to 331 miles of range (WLTP*), it's the most capable electric van in the Mercedes-Benz van lineup.

You can choose between two battery sizes—81 kWh or 113 kWh, depending on your range and load requirements. When you're short on time, fast charging gets you back on the road quickly, as you can charge from 10% to 80% in just 34 minutes, using public DC rapid charging stations.

With two vehicle lengths and two height options available, you can adapt the eSprinter to your unique business needs. And thanks to clever underfloor battery placement, the load compartment remains as spacious as ever—up to 14m³, identical to its combustion-engine sibling.

Towing capacity? No compromise there either—haul up to 2,000 kg, with a permissible gross mass of up to 4,250 kg, depending on your battery configuration.

To further enhance your driving efficiency, the eSprinter comes with three drive programs and five recuperation levels, including the intelligent D-AUTO mode, which automatically adjusts regenerative braking based on your driving conditions to extend range.

eVito: Balanced Performance for Urban Professionals

Perfectly positioned for urban delivery routes and mid-range travel, the eVito Panel Van offers up to 160 miles of WLTP range and fast AC/DC charging—up to 80% in just 35 minutes.

While it’s more compact than the eSprinter, the eVito still provides a generous 6.6m³ load compartment, making it ideal for logistics, trades, or mobile services. Its front-wheel drive and has passenger car-like handling, to provide confident maneuverability in tight urban environments.

Drivers will also appreciate Mercedes-Benz touches like Pre-Entry Climate Control and an energy-saving climate mode, which help to optimise battery usage and preserve range—especially helpful for courier and delivery services who make frequent stops throughout the day, or for busy parents running erands and completing the school run. 

Safety is a key focus, with features like the optional Parking Package with 360° camera, making tight spaces and complex maneuvers far less stressful.

eCitan: Agile, Compact, and Perfect for the City

Need something small, nimble, and efficient? The eCitan is your go-to van for city streets and short-to-mid-range routes. With a range of up to 176 miles WLTP and DC fast charging up to 80% in just 38 minutes, the eCitan proves that compact doesn’t mean compromise.

The eCitan delivers a punchy 122 hp electric motor, and thanks to its compact size and agility, it’s ideal for navigating busy urban areas, narrow country roads like ours here in the southwest, and busy loading zones. 

Cargo space isn't forgotten: you get up to 3.62m³ of load capacity, and options for two vehicle lengths provide flexibility depending on your workload. The eCitan Crew Van variant adds even more versatility, allowing you to toggle between extra passenger seating and load space with a retractable rear-seat bench.

Additional features like sliding side doors on both sides, optional trailer coupling, and LED High Performance headlamps mean the eCitan is as functional as it is stylish. And in a clever design twist, the charging port is discreetly located behind the iconic Mercedes star on the grille.

Whether you're looking for the high-range endurance of the eSprinter, the urban adaptability of the eVito, or the compact efficiency of the eCitan, Mercedes-Benz has engineered electric vans that not only meet modern mobility demands—but exceed them.
