Vanlife can now be emissions free.
The German marque’s luxe battery-powered van, which was unveiled in late 2019 as an electric alternative to the V-Class, has been treated to a number of modular upgrades to help turn it into an RV worth of van life.Mercedes-Benz AG - Global Communications Mercedes-Benz Cars & Vans
As for power, the roof can be fitted with two solar panels that generate up to 400 watts for the leisure and starter batteries. The powertrain battery, meanwhile, changes depending on what variant of the van you go for. The EQV 300 sports a 90 kWh battery for a driving range of up to 225.6 miles while the EQV 250 packs a 60 kWh battery that’s good for up to 146.6 miles. Of course, the range may be impacted by the weight of Sortimo’s kit.
The kicker is that Sortimo conversions are only performed in Switzerland. The multifunction box with a bed and kitchen, along with the pop-up roof, starts at CHF 9,980 excluding tax . You’ll also have to shell out for the van itself. Mercedes toldthe EQV base price is around €56,990 in Germany , while the extra-long EQV 300 starts at €87,596 . By our math, you can expect to pay around $109,863 for the range-topping EQV with all of Sortimo’s add-ons.
