Robust van market demands cost discipline
Electrically powered commercial vans can contribute significantly to lower operational costs within a business.
The demand for Mercedes-Benz vans has increased significantly over the past year. Internationally, electrically powered vans, are particularly popular.
Marinus Venter, the head of product and marketing for Mercedes-Benz Vans SA says, βIn 2022, we have engaged in several insightful conversations regarding the feasibility of electric vans in South Africa. We are on track to introduce our first electric van in South Africa and believe that our vans will take locally emission-free transportation to the next level in South Africa.β
Mercedes-Benz Vans South Africa has already exceeded target sales in certain vehicle categories and customer segments. Although the van market has not fully recovered from the devastation caused by the lockdowns and restrictions, the Sprinter still offers exceptional value and Mercedes expects good sales in 2023.
