2019 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 3500 Limo

2019 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 3500 Limo — overview and factory features

Powertrain and emissions
- Engine: BlueTEC 3.0L turbocharged V6 diesel, rated at 188 hp and 325 lb-ft of torque. The BlueTEC system combines diesel oxidation, a diesel particulate filter and selective catalytic reduction (SCR) using diesel exhaust fluid (DEF/AdBlue) to reduce emissions.
- Transmission: 7-speed automatic transmission with manual shift ability at the shifter.
- Drivetrain: Factory rear-wheel drive layout on standard 3500 models (four-wheel-drive available as a factory/option choice on some Sprinter configurations).

Chassis, suspension and braking
- Heavy-duty Sprinter-series chassis with a unibody construction designed for commercial load and towing capacities.
- Front independent suspension and a rear heavy-load suspension setup (leaf spring configuration on most 3500 models) to provide load-carrying capability and stability.
- Brake system: four-wheel disc brakes with Anti-lock Braking System (ABS), Electronic Brake-force Distribution (EBD) and Brake Assist.
- Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) as part of the factory safety equipment.

Exterior, doors and access
- Dual rear doors (barn-style swing-open) at the back of the cargo area as standard equipment.
- Full-height sliding side door on the passenger side for curbside entry and loading.
- High-roof and extended-wheelbase bodies were offered from the factory on Sprinter 3500 variants; roof and wheelbase depend on the original chassis configuration.
- Heavy-duty steel wheels are typical of factory base equipment on 3500 models, with wheel covers or hubcaps; dually (dual rear wheel) rear axle configurations were available as factory options for increased load capacity.

Lighting and visibility
- Halogen headlamps and factory rear combination lamps.
- Daytime running lights and standard exterior mirrors; power-adjustable mirrors with wide-angle (convex) sections available on many factory builds.
- Rear window and side glass depend on the body configuration; cargo/crew vans may have limited rear/side glazing compared with passenger models.

Safety and driver aids
- Electronic Stability Program (ESP) with traction control standard to help manage vehicle stability under load.
- Crosswind Assist to help detect and compensate for sudden gusts affecting high-roof vans.
- Hill-start assist to prevent rollback on grades.
- Standard front airbags for driver and front passenger; additional airbag configurations (side or curtain) were offered depending on the factory spec and market.
- Basic collision mitigation technologies such as Collision Prevention Assist (radar-based driver assist) were available on many 2019 Sprinter models as standard or factory-installed options.
- Central locking and factory anti-theft features.

Interior and comfort (factory)
- Driver-orientated cockpit with two front seats as factory standard (driver and front passenger); seating materials at base level typically vinyl or durable cloth depending on trim.
- Adjustable driver seat with lumbar support and manual adjustments; passenger seat configurations vary by factory body option (single passenger or two-person bench in some trims).
- Tilt and telescoping steering column and multifunction steering wheel with basic audio and phone controls.
- Manual climate control (air conditioning and heater) for the front cabin. Rear climate equipment depends on the original body/trim — passenger van or crew variants could be factory-equipped with additional rear heating/AC ducts; cargo vans typically had only front HVAC.
- Interior overhead storage and practical, easy-to-clean surfaces designed for commercial use.

Infotainment and connectivity
- Factory radio unit with AM/FM, Bluetooth hands-free calling and audio streaming, and auxiliary/USB inputs for media devices. Factory screen size and feature set depend on the trim level and option packages chosen at build.
- Basic instrument cluster with speedometer, tachometer, and multi-fu
