Built by Mercedes-Benz, the Sprinter is robust in construction and has an amazing turning circle. It also has very powerful anti-lock brakes, something we learned when two lanes suddenly turned into one in a construction zone, and we had to apply full braking power. The headlights create superb visibility, as do the windshield wipers, which we used briefly during a passing storm.
The biggest surprise of all, however, is the Sprinter’s Mercedes-Benz V-6 engine. Measuring just 3 liters, it produces 188 hp and 325 lb-ft of torque, which doesn’t seem like nearly enough for the larger View and Reyo. But with less than 11,000 pounds to contend with, the engine has no trouble at all hustling the coach up to speed and keeping it there.
