The new Mercedes-Benz V-Class Night Edition will be available in Spain from €74,973

MPVs are currently at a crossroads regarding their future, as the rise of SUVs, especially large ones, is relegating them to the bottom of the sales charts. Luckily for them, they offer great versatility when it comes to tackling long family journeys, as well as the possibility of extensive personalisation options, and they have a large following who use them mainly for their personal adventures.

Among these MPVs, which stand out for their wide capacity for personalisation, is the Mercedes-Benz V-Class, and an example of this is the perfect base it offers in its different versions Marco Polo, making it the ideal companion for leisure. Furthermore, for those who don’t need so much luxury on board, Mercedes offers its customers different special editions that give the car different characters, such as the recent special editions Rise and Limited Edition presented last summer.

Once again, Mercedes wants to keep the V-Class as attractive as possible, showing us a new special edition called Night Edition that focuses mainly on giving it a more sporty look and character, which, incidentally, has nothing to envy from any of its other models, and which sets it apart from the rest of the range. But this will not be the only change the V-Class Night Edition receives, as to justify its price it will be offered with a high level of standard equipment.

Exteriorly, we will notice the difference at first glance thanks to the addition of the AMG Line aerodynamic package, which, as on Mercedes’s passenger cars, is characterised mainly by a new bumper with large side air intakes, along with several gloss black details affecting the front grille slats, bumper mouldings, mirror housings and 19-inch alloy wheels. In contrast, we have the chrome applied to the characteristic Mercedes lines on the grille, as well as the roof rails.

For the interior, black leather upholstery has been chosen, with contrasting stitching, which has also been applied to the dashboard, along with specially designed floor mats. But this will not be the only thing we enjoy inside, as it will feature interesting standard equipment, which I list below:

• Comand Online navigation
• Parking package with 360° camera
• Power-folding mirror package
• 7G-TRONIC PLUS automatic gearbox
• AMG Line exterior package
• Avantgarde interior package
• 19-inch lightweight alloy wheels
• Lumbar support on front seats
• Edition model velour floor mats
• Black tinted rear windows
• Night package
• Metallic paint
• Black roof rails

Mechanically, the new Mercedes-Benz V-Class Night Edition is offered with two power outputs: the smaller is the 220d with 163 CV of power and a recommended price of €74,738, while the larger is the 250d with 190 CV of power and a recommended price of €76,973. Both prices assume the vehicles are registered as passenger cars, and it is available from this very month of June for the Spanish market.
