The Sprinter’s adaptability is evident in its various configurations, from panel vans ideal for luxury campers to chassis that can be converted into different motorhome types, and the traction head variant allowing for flexible living area designs.

Safety has been significantly improved with new and updated driver assistance systems, such as Active Brake Assist and Sideguard Assist, which offer better protection and awareness on the road.
The interior has also been upgraded with a new high-tech steering wheel and an enhanced MBUX multimedia system featuring a 10.25-inch touchscreen, faster processing, and a smarter voice assistant. Additionally, motorhome-specific features like “Hibernation Mode” and specialized navigation for oversized vehicles further elevate the travel experience.

Highlights included Hymer’s Grand Canyon S CrossOver and Adria Mobil’s MATRIX SUPREME MB 670 DL, among others. These models demonstrate how the Sprinter continues to set the standard in the motorhome industry.
