Mercedes-Benz introduces natural gas-powered Sprinter van
Filed under: Mercedes Benz, Natural Gas
Mercedes-Benz has just introduced a new dual-fueled version of the Sprinter van that can run on either gasoline or natural gas. The big van is powered by a 156hp supercharged 1.8L four cylinder with 177lb-ft of torque. Mercedes claims the Sprinter NGT has thirty percent lower operating costs than the diesel version thanks to tax breaks on natural gas. The Sprinter is available in wide range of configurations including the panel van shown, low and tall roof cargo vans, and passenger vans. Depending on the body style, up to six CNG tanks can be fitted below the floor providing a range of up to 745 miles. The Sprint NGT will be available starting in May.
