Love to here Ed talk more about vans. Even humbler large vans are great to drive and really comfy. With their torquey engines, great visibility and good seating position, they are no longer the poor relation to cars.
Edd, if you don't like the "lane assist", wait until the "side wind assist" takes control, pretty scary on a packed motorway on a gusty day, natural reaction is to correct it but you could end up making it worse! Other than that feature, brilliant van!
The Mercedes might have great connectivity but I wonder if it still rusts like all the previous ones? I had to start buying French vans because they didn't dissolve in water.
Yes! It is because of Wheeler Dealers that we like him so much! We love to listen to his explanation and even the way he talks. In fact I prefer car reviews from him than from that 'Carwow guy'. Way to go Ed!
I hope Ed might soon get a chance to try that upcoming Transit Connect PHEV. The Ford is a 1.0l 3-cyl series only hybrid with 13.8kWh. It's exciting to see, a hybrid van! but it creates doubts for the engine at amp-sucking high speeds.
That sounds great it was greatly needed sadly it’s probably gonna sell really bad because hybrids are really expensive and Americans think everything smaller than a 3 liter engine is an engine for a scooter
Interesting vehicles. (I don't know much about Mercedes , don't know what they are really like but it looks good , seems quality / well made). I have a van , and a pickup , in Japan and one of the BEST EVER features I have seen on vans I have only ever seen on Japanese vans. (I have this on a Mazda and my daughter has a company van (Nissan) with it). This "feature" is slightly smaller than usual twin rear wheels ad a "fully-floating" rear axle. The vans have regular size front wheels. This means there are NO WHEEL ARCHES IN THE BACK OF THE VAN . It has a completely flat floor. It is a brilliant feature , especially useful for some uses and trades where you carry long or large flat items. (As I do) . I am surprised other manufacturers, especially people like Mercedes , don't adopt this , it is one of the BEST and most useful design features I've seen in commercial vehicles. I have rarely seen it other than on domestic Japanese vans though . Shame . It would be very popular with van users.
Good for you Edd. You have found yet another string to your bow. It is so refreshing to see a vehicle review from somebody that actually knows what they are talking about rather than the usual pink shirted journalists who are more worried about their image and if their hair looks good!
What an inspired choice - getting Edd onto the What Car team! I look forward to more reviews by him.. this more than makes up for Rebecca "banana" Jackson moving on !
Would be nice to have an electric version of the Sprinter. Considering Amazon has 20,000 of these vans and FedEx own a bunch; it seems like they would insist on the reliability to be world class. Anyone who owns a Sprinter RV says never again.
They had Mercedes vans sprinters here in Canada they did not do well a lot of dealers went out of business Cars are not that great as well to expensive to fix lots of problems
They must have done a lot of design changers! Our work place bought two & had nothing but trouble with them, mainly brakes! They were diesels with 5 speed autos & had more trouble with one unable to go up a hill! Needless to say they both got changed to Mitsubishi within two years because of maintenance problems!
I prefer the Previous Model ( Less to go wrong with the Electrics, with Intermittent Faults ), and have they sorted the Rust Problem out on this New Model ?
Edd China , One of my favourite person in the world of cars .
8 minutes and 55 seconds of Edd China being a great car reviewer
13 words and 52 letters of you making a good comment
I don't need a van, I watched only because of Ed China
Me too.
Bmw F800r it’s not about needing one. It’s about wanting one. Vans are awesome. 😅
And me !
Come on now. Make the effort. It is Edd.
Trust they r reeaaaly relaxing I was in a spri ter 2015 and it is waaaay better than any van or car no doubt bout dar
Glad to see Ed back doing something automotive related, he's a natrual👍🇺🇸
Brilliant to see Ed! Personally I think Ed should have been picked for Top Gear years ago. He would be brilliant, come on BBC!
Good idea, with his large following. However he wouldn't fit in 80% of the test cars.
He was on Top Gear early on, he developed a budget Bond car.

I'm not remotely interested in vans, I'm only here to listen and watch Ed China. Which makes it interesting and enjoyable to watch.
Would Like to see Edd turn this into a camper van/motorhome.
That would be riveting viewing Indeed.
Love to here Ed talk more about vans. Even humbler large vans are great to drive and really comfy. With their torquey engines, great visibility and good seating position, they are no longer the poor relation to cars.
Who else is here to watch Edd.. With Very little interest in vans..???
Ed welcome back to our screens, great work and looking forward to future reviews.
Edd a delight as always. More of this please!

Great to see you Edd. Good review.
Definitely don't need a van, but I loved watching the review.
Great review edd 👍
He's back😀
Edd, if you don't like the "lane assist", wait until the "side wind assist" takes control, pretty scary on a packed motorway on a gusty day, natural reaction is to correct it but you could end up making it worse! Other than that feature, brilliant van!
Id still prefer the previous version.
Ed the living legend.
Hopefully Ed does a lot more reviews
Sprinter is a great van , Ed is a great presenter.

Edd you are so good in front of a camera.... !
thank you very much, great video , every time I watch this guy, i feel so calm and chill ,,, very warm and friendly
The Mercedes might have great connectivity but I wonder if it still rusts like all the previous ones? I had to start buying French vans because they didn't dissolve in water.
Yes! It is because of Wheeler Dealers that we like him so much! We love to listen to his explanation and even the way he talks. In fact I prefer car reviews from him than from that 'Carwow guy'. Way to go Ed!
Lane-keeping with the brakes, that sounds like an awful idea.
I hope Ed might soon get a chance to try that upcoming Transit Connect PHEV.
The Ford is a 1.0l 3-cyl series only hybrid with 13.8kWh. It's exciting to see, a hybrid van! but it creates doubts for the engine at amp-sucking high speeds.

+1. Three cheers for Edd China. .. A top-notch automotive segment presenter. .. Subscribed.
Yes ! Ed! Best van review Iv seen
Aye its Wheeler Dealer!
Great review Edd ,the storage space in the spinter is massive you could fit Mike Brewer in there.One thing missing no top tips.
No one wants to see that tw8t again !
Ed is the man what he say goes

Good to see you again, Ed Chaina. More video please.
Well done Edd, nice review keep them coming, just working my way through your book, good read!!
Good for you Edd. You have found yet another string to your bow. It is so refreshing to see a vehicle review from somebody that actually knows what they are talking about rather than the usual pink shirted journalists who are more worried about their image and if their hair looks good!
I have one for work. the negative side is the speed limiter on the steering wheel which engages when you make a maneuver
I wish edd could fix my car 😔😔
I am so happy to see you again in action. Great review can I ask if it's possible to make a review of fiat Ducati.thank you
Edd how about psa vans, and nice to hear you again!
edd!!! nice to see mate!!!
Fab review Edd 👍🏻 More Edd, please 😃
I don't need a van, just wanted to watch Edd! More please!
What an inspired choice - getting Edd onto the What Car team! I look forward to more reviews by him.. this more than makes up for Rebecca "banana" Jackson moving on !
Great to see you!!!! You're the best, you know .
We had this exact van on review a month or so ago, a great van, it always has been and always will be, Sprinter power - thank you *ben
I Love All My Vans, Minibuses, HGV's etc AsF! Keep up the good work👍🏿People Working at What Car! Thank You.🙏🏿💖✊🏿
We need more of Ed China around our RUclips Channels.
Edd , so glad to see you !
Welcome back Ed, great to see you, great review.
Edd,There is IVECO Daily 4x4 version.I haven see reviews of that van on YT.Nice to see u back.Thank you
Can the "lane departure" feature be disabled?
I use one of these 68 plate Van's for work. I see Edd didn't mention about the body roll and the use in caution when its windy out.
Wish Edd would do a vid on compare van for van build
Would be nice to have an electric version of the Sprinter. Considering Amazon has 20,000 of these vans and FedEx own a bunch; it seems like they would insist on the reliability to be world class. Anyone who owns a Sprinter RV says never again.

charismatic as ever, nice to see you Edd
Go on Edd your a legend.... Germans make good motors... Your reviews are seriously good....
Good to see you Edd. Subscribed!
Great to see u bk ed
Good review from a relevant man
I prefer the Previous Model ( Less to go wrong with the Electrics, with Intermittent Faults ), and have they sorted the Rust Problem out on this New Model ?
More Edd please
Add makes Van reviews fun.
But Ed, is it galvanized?
I find the automatic on sprinter mini coaches very noisy as if it's struggling and revs high
Forget a TV show. Glad you are on You Tube. I enjoy Mustie1 and Cold War Motors much more than MotorTrend TV and the manufactured stress. Subscribing.
Does it have an electronic handbrake?
can these old merc van still run on there chipfats ?
bought a vito , after 1 year i regret i didnt buy the sprinter . the cargo space is just soo much better xD
If Edd can stand up in it, I will buy it
Did I hear that right? Service interval for oil changes on a diesel is 37.5k miles between?????? Yikes
