Many of today’s limousine companies have expanded their fleet to include top-of-the-line vehicles. While some companies still offer stretch limos, many focus more on executive sedans, mini-buses, coaches, SUVs, and more. If you are a business executive needing to hire a chauffeur, you might consider a company that offers the new 2015 Mercedes Sprinter.
Although there are three Mercedes Sprinter vans available, the one option in particular that will enhance your experience is the Sprinter 2500 passenger van. This van has a sleek design, is loaded with amenities, and is guaranteed to impress.
The Mercedes Sprinter is designed for both power and efficiency. The two reliable and powerful engine and transmission combinations ensure you have a smooth and comfortable ride.
Mercedes Sprinter OM651
The first Sprinter has a standard powertrain, which is a 4-cylinder complete with 7-speed, 7G-Tronic transmission. Known as the OM651, this Sprinter has been pushed through almost 5 million miles of hard endurance testing against extremely harsh operating conditions.
This vehicle also boasts a two-stage diesel engine that provides fuel economy, durability, and turbocharged power. The Mercedes Sprinter OM651’s standard features include:
- 161 horsepower at 3,800 RPM
- 2 overhead camshafts with 4 valves per cylinder
- 265-pound-feet of torque for a wide range of RPM
- Selective Catalytic Reduction system for emissions that are much cleaner
- 2-stage exhaust gas turbocharging system that eliminates turbo lag
Mercedes Sprinter OM642
The second option has a 6-cylinder diesel engine with a 5-speed transmission combination. Features for this Sprinter include:
- 188 horsepower at 3,800 RPM
- 2,987 cc displacement
- 325-pound-feet of torque for a wide range of RPM
- 4 valves per cylinder
- Electronically controlled direct injection
- Fuel type equals ultra-low sulfur diesel
Similar to the first vehicle, this second Mercedes Sprinter is ranked as one of the cleanest running diesel engines in the world. Both are designed with BlueTEC SCR technology that generates tremendous power but without excessive fuel emissions.
For your next trip, consider hiring a limousine company that has the Mercedes Sprinter as part of the fleet, such as Griffin Transportation. In addition to a sleek design and fuel efficiency, this superior vehicle guarantees a seamless ride for executive travel and more.
