This 2024 Mercedes Sprinter Van Has a Custom Luxury Interior, Costs Lamborghini Urus Money
You’re probably wondering who on Earth would want to buy a luxury van instead of an SUV or a sedan, right? Well, it might surprise you to learn that there’s a robust market out there for these types of vehicles, which can be especially popular among big name celebrities who tend to ride around with large entourages.

Remember the show ‘Entourage’? If they ever made a reboot, Vincent Chase would probably own a fully customized luxury van so that he’d have even more room to chill alongside E, Drama and Turtle. I just remembered how badly I miss Jeremy Piven’s portrayal of Ari Gold. The perfect mix of angry, anxious and vulgar.

Anyway, I also remember how those guys used to ride in a Rolls-Royce Phantom which they purchased after Vince’s first-ever major gig. However, while it is hard to beat the Phantom at what it does, you can replace it with something that offers a great deal more comfort, security, and privacy – a custom luxury van.

Leave it to luxury vehicle specialist Clive Sutton to demonstrate how it’s done, by unveiling a new VIP Class Mercedes-Benz Sprinter. It’s fully customized with leather-clad seating, two 40-inch 4k screens, onboard fridge compartments, a surround sound system and more.

There’s over 15,000 liters (529 cu.ft) of space in the so-called rear passenger lounge (you can seat as many as nine people though), with over two meters (6'6") of headroom. NBA players would certainly appreciate that.

Future owners can also specify many other features, from a coffee machine to a washroom with hand basin and even a toilet. You can fit a full-size wardrobe inside and literally live out of this thing long-term, if you wanted to.

Want more? Sure, no problem. There are plenty of optional extras to toy with, as you also get heated seats, high-power air conditioning and a twin-section panoramic glass roof (triple-section available on extended wheelbase model).

Our customers demand the absolute pinnacle of luxury, refinement, comfort, and practicality, so we’ve pulled out all the stops to make our 2024 VIP Class Mercedes-Benz Sprinter the most luxurious, spacious, and stylish way to transport up to nine people in absolute comfort,” said company founder and CEO, Clive Sutton.

At this point, you’re probably wondering how much it would cost to purchase this thing, right? Well, pricing starts from £180,000, plus VAT, which comes up to about £216,000, which in turn is roughly $274,000. This means you could either buy a VIP Class Mercedes Sprinter van or something like a brand-new 2024 Lamborghini Urus – and not a base-spec Urus either, but one with loads of optional extras onboard.

You could also buy a used Rolls-Royce Cullinan for that money, which is probably the only conventional vehicle that could even come close to offering the same amount of comfort as a custom Sprinter van.
