Re: Mercedes to sell Sprinter vans through its own stores
Check out the HP and Torque numbers in this article. I can't vouch for the accuracy of this information, but if true, it would be a nice improvement in performance and could be enough to get me into the Sprinter. The fixed 74" roof and extra room sure sounds nice.

And if you’re thinking about a Sprinter, you might want to hold off until then; the model will be relaunched with the more modern 3.0-liter BlueTec turbo-diesel V-6 that’s offered on the Mercedes-Benz ML320 BlueTec, along with variants of the GL-Class and R-Class. The new engine in the Benz SUVs makes 210 horsepower and 398 pound-feet, while the older 3.0-liter turbo-diesel V-6 currently in the Sprinter makes 154 hp and 280 lb-ft.
