Mercedes-Benz Teases First VAN.EA Prototypes

As a seasoned gamer and tech enthusiast with a soft spot for automotive innovations, I must admit, the unveiling of Mercedes-Benz‘s VAN.EA prototypes has sent my heart racing like a high-performance electric motor! Having spent countless hours navigating virtual cityscapes in games, I can only imagine the real-life versatility these vans will bring to the table.


Mercedes-Benz has moved forward in its electric vehicle plan by introducing the initial models of “VAN.EA” (Electric Van Architecture). These early versions signify the future direction for their medium and large vans, which will all be built using the adaptable and scalable VAN.EA platform.

As a gamer, I’d put it this way: “I’m all about that versatility! The VAN.EA platform is my go-to for everything from sleek luxury vans for personal use to top-tier commercial models. It’s like a dream come true with options ranging from family-friendly vans and exclusive VIP shuttles, to spacious limousines that scream high-end elegance. Whether I’m cruising around town for fun or running errands for the business, VAN.EA has got me covered!

Vehicles built on the VAN.EA platform will be outfitted with cutting-edge technology, including the newest Mercedes-Benz Operating System (MB.OS), a robust 800-volt charging system, and a 22 kW AC charger. Drivers can choose between front-wheel drive or all-wheel drive configurations, catering to diverse driving requirements.

As a fervent supporter, I’m thrilled to share that our VAN.EA prototypes have passed crucial tests on chassis, electric powertrains, batteries, and high-voltage components. Now, as winter draws near, we’re gearing up for cold-weather testing in Sweden. This step marks another significant stride in the development journey. These strenuous trials are designed to guarantee that our vehicles perform optimally, even in the most challenging weather conditions.

The initial models of these prototypes are now being driven on public streets, and it’s anticipated that a formal unveiling of vehicles on the VAN.EA platform will take place around 2026.
