Kerstner is a German bodybuilder for refrigerated vehicles that fits insulated, cooled box bodies to Mercedes-Benz chassis. The model names on this page name the base directly: Kühlsprinter denotes the body on the larger Sprinter, Kühlvito the one on the more compact Vito, and the numerous spelling variants in the registration data – Kuhlsprinter, Kühlsprinter, Kühlvito, Kuhlvito – denote the same body type.

The register lists here 17 versions with 95 to 120 kW from four-cylinders of 2,143 cm³, unladen weights from 2,086 to 3,058 kg, gross weights from 3,050 to 3,500 kg, lengths from 5,140 to 5,930 mm and widths from 1,928 to 2,020 mm.

Refrigerated boxes on the Sprinter and Vito are the backbone of the last mile of the cold chain: butchers, bakeries, caterers and fresh-food distributors rely on the 3.5-tonne class because it can be driven on a B96 or BE licence and stays permitted in city centres, where bigger refrigerated trucks run into low-emission zones and delivery time windows.

On a used example, the condition of the refrigeration unit comes first – compressor, condenser and controller are the most expensive wear items –, then the tightness of the insulation panels, since moisture in the box floor is a common problem, the condition of the bulkhead and door seals, and on the chassis rust on the sills and springs.

What to check before buying

  • Check the hour meter against the service records — a replaced instrument is the most common gap.
  • Compare the data plate and chassis number with the papers.
  • Check the weights in the papers against the figures here — attachments change them.
  • Ask about parts availability for this build year — the running costs hang on it.
