2024 Mercedes V Class range gets new styling and features
2024 Mercedes V Class range revealed. The German luxury carmaker has sharpened the styling of their MPV including the Vito variants. They have also given it more equipment and driver assistance tech.
The new models include the EQV, V-Class, V-Class Marco Polo, eVito and Vito. The front profile has got significant updates with new LED headlights, revised grille design and updated bumpers. The carmaker is offering more aerodynamic alloy wheel designs with this update. The rear profile of the MPV remains more or less the same with slight changes in the rear windshield and the tail light detailing.
There are different equipment lines on offer. The EQV gets AVANTGARDE line, the V-Class is available in four variants – as an entry-level variant and in the STYLE, AVANTGARDE and the EXCLUSIVE luxury line. There are also optional design packages such as the AMG Line and the Night package (for the V-Class). There is a camper variant Marco Polo on offer as well.
The interior gets a completely new dashboard which looks more premium and luxurious. The EQV, V-Class and V-Class Marco Polo have got two 12.3-inch widescreen displays like some of the other Mercedes passenger cars, which looks quite cool.
Some of the other features include wireless charging of smartphones, keyless start function, heated steering wheel, dimmed rear lighting for driving at night, 64 colours ambient lighting, sliding door on the left-hand side of the vehicle as standard.
New driver assistance systems include Attention Assist, Headlamp Assist including rain sensor, Active Distance Assist DISTRONIC, Active Brake Assist with cross-traffic function, Blind Spot Assist, Active Lane Keeping Assist, Intelligent Speed Assist and Park Package.
Mercedes has not confirmed the engine options for the new range of V-Class yet. We believe the same petrol and diesel engine options will be carried forward. You can expect additional mild hybrid tech with the updated engines. We believe Mercedes will introduce the updated V-Class in India sometime later this year or early next year. It competes with the Toyota Vellfire in the Indian market. Toyota is preparing to launch the new generation Vellfire soon in India.
