The Vito E-CELL was the electric pioneer in the midsize van segment in 2010. The fully electric eVito has now established itself as an alternative to local CO2-emission free driving to its conventionally powered brother. The eVito is the top seller in the Mercedes-Benz Vans electric portfolio.
The new eVito is available as a panel van from 49,441 euros and the eVito Tourer from 63,549 euros.
The eVito panel van offers a maximum payload of up to 950 kilograms and a loading volume of up to 6.6 cubic metres. The entire loading space can be used without restrictions because the battery is located in the vehicle underbody. The maximum permissible total weight is 3.2 tons for the eVito panel van and 3.5 tons for the eVito Tourer. The eVito Tourer allows a variety of seating configurations for up to eight passengers. Both the panel van and the tourer are available in two body lengths (long and extra-long).
The eVito panel van is equipped with a 60-kWh battery. The electric motor has a peak output of 85 kW (116 hp) and a continuous output of 70 kW (95 hp). The electric range is up to 319 kilometres. The eVito Tourer has a peak output of 150 kW (204 hp) and a continuous output of 70 kW (95 hp). As usual, there are two battery sizes to choose from with a usable capacity of 60 kWh or 90 kWh. Equipped with the larger battery, the WLTP-range is up to 381 kilometres –also thanks to efficient recuperation and optimisation of thermal management. The latter has been further technically developed in the new eVito.
As standard, both eVito models support alternating current charging (AC) at a wallbox or at public charging stations with up to 11 kW, as well as direct current charging (DC) on fast charging stations with up to 110 kW (eVito Tourer with 90 kWh battery) and 80 kW (eVito panel van and eVito Tourer with 60 kWh battery). The eVito Tourer can be charged from 10 to 80 percent in around 40 minutes at a DC charging station with 110 kW, the panel van with 80 kW in around 35 minutes.
Mercedes me Charge offers access to one of the largest public charging networks with more than 1.6 million charging points worldwide. In Germany, the Mercedes me Charge network includes more than 90 percent of all public charging stations with more than 100,000 charging points. Last year, Mercedes-Benz also started setting up its own charging network with the aim of setting up more than 10,000 fast charging points in North America, Europe, China and other core markets. The first charging park in Germany opened in Mannheim in November 2023. It sets new standards for fast and safe charging with an output of 300 kW. From 2024, Mercedes-Benz will be opening additional charging parks in Italy, Spain and France, as well as in additional locations in Germany. By the end of 2024, Mercedes-Benz’s global fast-charging network will be expanded to over 2,000 charging points, of which more than 200 will be in Europe.
For the first time, eVito is equipped with the MBUX multimedia system. Thanks to MBUX, the eVito has become part of the Mercedes-Benz electromobility ecosystem. With intelligent navigation and active range management, it ensures relaxed driving with the greatest possible planning security. Now commercial customers in the midsize van segment can also benefit from modern digital connectivity, including a wide range of Digital Extras that further enhance comfort.
Furthermore, the new commercial midsize vans also score points with their new exterior and interior design, new and extended assistance systems, and comfort features such as the electric EASY-PACK tailgate, the MULTIBEAM LED headlights and the new centre console, which are now part of the product portfolio.
With the systematic electrification of its entire portfolio, Mercedes‑Benz Vans has set the course for a purely electric future. Customers already have a fully electric alternative to choose from for every van model. Mercedes‑Benz Vans is the leading manufacturer of electric vans. Last year alone, sales increased by 51 percent. From 2026, with the introduction of the modular and scalable VAN.EA vehicle architecture, all newly developed midsize and large vans will be exclusively electric. The proportion of eVans in the entire model portfolio is expected to be more than 50 percent by 2030.
