Mercedes-Benz has given us a first glimpse of what its electric vans could look like in the near future.<\/p>\n

Called the ‘Vision V’, this concept model is built on the new Van Electric Architecture (VAN.EA), which Mercedes-Benz says will redefine the privately positioned van and take it into the luxury segment.<\/p>\n

This future model portfolio will range from practical, entry-segment family vehicles and exclusive VIP shuttles to luxurious limousines with “an enormous amount of space”, each in line with different customer requirements.<\/p>\n

The Vision V is described as a “luxurious and elegant chauffeur-driven limousine that allows one to pamper themselves in a whole new world of comfort”.<\/p>\n

A spacious open comprises a lounge with a retractable 65-inch cinema screen, surround-sound system with 42 speakers and seven projectors.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Mercedes-Benz Vans have been iconic for decades. With the Vision V we take that heritage and transform it into a completely new context of highest luxury transportation. This show car embodies the perfect harmony between luxury and van design, setting a new benchmark for the future,” said Gorden Wagener, chief design officer, Mercedes-Benz Group AG.<\/p>\n

Mercedes-Benz plans to start building new models on the VAN.EA platform from 2026.<\/p>\n
