Mercedes-Benz Vito Receives Deutscher Nutzfahrzeugpreis

The Mercedes-Benz Vito (marketed in North America as the Metris) received the Deutscher Nutzfahrzeugpreis (German Commercial Vehicle Prize) at the IAA Commercial Vehicle show, held last month in Hanover, Germany. The popular prize for vans with a gross vehicle weight of up to 3 t was presented to Volker Mornhinweg, head of Mercedes-Benz Vans, by Matthias Wissmann, president of the German Association of the Automotive Industry (VDA), and Alexander Holzmann, publisher at Holzmann Medien.

The all-rounder with the star prevailed against a strong competition after 2 days of intensive tests. The 15-member judging panel of tradespeople attended the award ceremony. The Commercial Vehicle Prize was run for the 13th time by Holzmann Medien. In addition to tests while stationary and on the move, the scoring took account of an independent economic analysis. The prize-winning Vito 109 CDI panel van convinced especially in terms of its driving dynamics and its economic efficiency.

“Tradespeople know precisely what’s important in a good van,” says Volker Mornhinweg. “That’s why we are especially delighted that an expert judging panel has chosen to honor the Mercedes-Benz Vito.”
