Mercedes-Benz Vision Urbanetic Concept Van
The Mercedes Sprinter has been delivering the goods for over 20 years. But the future looks more like Vision Urbanetic concept, an autonomous chassis that can accept a variety of pods for everything from cargo to people. The all-electric platform is designed as an all-in-one package for many markets. The cargo module can hold just over 350 cubic feet or 10 European-spec pallets. The passenger module can carry up to 12 people, and with everything contained in the chassis, modules can be swapped in a matter of minutes. Mercedes envisions each Urbanetic van linked to a network infrastructure that can identify where, when, and in what configuration each vehicle is needed — a real glimpse into the future of urban transportation.
