The V-Class is primarily known for its luxurious stature, and with the addition of the V-Class Marco Polo this will undoubtably take the V-Class to a whole new level of class and comfort.

Mercedes-Benz Vans HQ unveiled its new mid-sized segment with a changed exterior design as well as interior upgrades in Stuttgart, Germany.

The exterior design will give the V-Class a more distinctive and unique design. The front grille of the V-Class has a more elegant design and will also have newly designed LED lights.
