The latest win for the Mercedes-Benz Sprinter comes from the prestigious Commercial Fleet Awards.
Judged by a panel of industry experts, including van operators themselves, the Sprinter was commended for its very good all-round performance.
“The win for Sprinter is a good indication of fleet opinion – it is beloved by many companies operating in a multitude of industry sectors.” – Commercial Fleet Award judges
Steve Bridge is the boss of Mercedes-Benz Vans UK, he says what makes the recognition more remarkable is that the Sprinter will be replaced with a new and improved version next year.
“For Sprinter to receive the highest honours in its final full year of production is testament to the service this vehicle dutifully carries out for thousands of owners and operators, who consistently trust in us and our vehicles to keep their businesses moving.”
