How Mercedes Sprinter compares
These are the makes buyers actually cross-shop against Mercedes Sprinter.
Mercedes Sprinter vs Ford Transit
The default British van, and the one most hire fleets are built around. Anyone who has driven a van has probably driven a Transit, which removes a whole category of friction from a one-day hire.
Mercedes Sprinter vs Iveco
Where the van market runs into the truck market. The Daily is built on a truck-style chassis, so it carries more and tows more than a conventional van, which is why tipper and beavertail hire fleets stock them.
