Sprinter Tops Best Fleet Value Awards for 4th Consecutive Year
Vincentric announced recently that the Mercedes-Benz Sprinter won awards in all 3 categories entered for the full-size van segment’s Best Fleet Value in Canada™. What is more, this is the 4th year in a row that the Sprinter has been bestowed these honors. The awards identified each of the following Mercedes-Benz vans as providing the best value in each of the outlined segments:
Each year, Vincentric conducts an extensive cost of ownership analysis on over 1,800 vehicle configurations, based on typical use in commercial fleets. The cost of ownership study takes into account all major ownership and operating costs of a vehicle. These include depreciation, fees and taxes, financing, fuel costs, insurance, maintenance, repairs and even opportunity cost, which is the loss of potential interest income as a result of owning and operating a vehicle. Each vehicle is evaluated in all 10 provinces using 24 different lifecycle cost scenarios. The winners are identified by determining which vehicles had the lowest fleet lifecycle cost in the most scenarios for its segment. When comparing the 2015 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter to its competitors from Chevrolet Express, Ford Transit, GMC Savana, Nissan NV and Ram ProMaster across all categories, Vincentric determined that the Sprinter 2500 had the lowest cost of ownership of any heavy-duty van. The Sprinter’s remarkable performance can be attributed primarily to its best-in-class fuel efficiency and low depreciation. In fact, the Sprinter received the Canadian Black Book Best Retained Value Award in the full-size van category 6 years in a row. Another major total cost of ownership enhancement as of model year 2015, is the extended service intervals of up to 30,000 km.
