Mercedes-Benz launches Vito Urban Edition for UK cities

Mercedes-Benz has announced the launch of a new van for UK urban operations, sporting a range of features to help drivers to comfortably navigate their way through city streets.

The Vito Urban Edition boasts a seven-speed 7G-Tronic Plus automatic transmission as standard – the only mid-size van to offer a full torque converter auto gearbox, says Mercedes.

The vehicle also comes with Becker Map Pilot, a navigation system which gives lane recommendations, displays speed limits and suggests the most efficient route for fuel efficiency.

Also included is a reverse camera, which offers a close-range camera in the tailgate/rear doors and displays the image on the full-colour Audio 15 head unit. Laid over the image are dynamic guide lines, to assist manoeuvrability, and the photo-realistic display helps drivers to spot hazards, such as pedestrians, behind the vehicle.

Vito Urban Edition is available as a Euro 6 114 BlueTEC van model, in compact, long and extra-long body lengths. Carbon emissions are the lowest in the Vito range, at 161g/km, and it returns up to 46.3mpg on the combined cycle.

Priced from £22,720 (plus VAT), the Vito Urban is available to business users at 0% APR representative, with a £250 deposit – hire purchase only and maximum term 36 months.
