Mercedes-Benz USA is extending customer offerings for the new 2025 eSprinter with the launch of the 81-kilowatt hour (kWh) battery option (usable capacity) and further developed technology functions. In addition, enhanced safety and assistance systems are now available as well as upgraded standard equipment for the new conventionally powered Mercedes-Benz Sprinter and for the new eSprinter.
With its modularity, the eSprinter, like its counterpart with a combustion engine, demonstrates a high level of practical suitability. This makes it attractive for numerous new use cases and industries and offers CO2-emission free transport with high flexibility in terms of range, body variants and payload.
As an alternative to the 113 kWh battery, 170″ wheelbase and high roof combination, Mercedes-Benz eSprinter customers in North America can now opt for the 81-kWh battery variant with different wheelbases and roof heights. This enables customers to choose the right configuration for their specific applications in terms of payload and range.
With the different battery capacities, Mercedes-Benz can meet many customer needs and specific total cost of ownership requirements—from inner-city local transport to regional feeder transport.
To maximize a payload of up to 3,516 lbs., a 144″ wheelbase with standard roof combination can offer up to 319 cubic feet of cargo volume. Alternatively, the longer 170″ wheelbase with a high roof in combination with the 81 kWh battery allows for a total volume of 488 cubic feet and a payload of up to 3,120 lbs.—almost 500 lbs more payload potential compared to the same configuration with the 113 kWh battery. All eSprinter variants allow for permissible gross vehicle weight of up to 9,370 lbs.
The permanent magnet synchronous motor of the eSprinter is available with 100 kW or 150 kW peak power and delivers a torque of up to 295 ft-lb. An electric range for the 81 kWh battery of up to 329 kilometers (~204 miles) according to the WLTP test procedure, poses a solid foundation for last-mile delivery services that service urban areas.
For increased range, the 113 kWh battery offers a range of up to 478 kilometers (~297 miles). Just like the 113 kWh battery, the 81 kWh option is capable of charging with both alternating current (AC) and direct current (DC). Fast charging with up to 115 kW from 10 to 80 percent of full capacity can be achieved in just over 30 minutes.
The new 2025 eSprinter is available to order now starting at $61,250 and will arrive at US dealerships in the second half of 2024.
