Mercedes-Benz trucks up to 3.5 t (Class N1) – collective page from the Düsseldorf-built T1 van through the T2/Vario to the Sprinter: type codes such as 310 D, 410 and 416 CDI, engines from 48 to 135 kW
The EU vehicle class N1 covers trucks and vans up to 3.5 t gross vehicle weight; this page is a collective page built from registration data (Netherlands, Finland) bundling every Mercedes-Benz range recorded in that class. Two generations form the core: the T1, built in Düsseldorf from 1977 and popularly known as the “Düsseldorf van”, with type codes from 307 D to 609 D, superseded in the 1990s by the T2/Vario from Mannheim, and the Sprinter, built since 1995 with the more modern CDI codes such as 313 CDI, 316 CDI and 416 CDI. The type logic is similar across both generations: the leading digits roughly order the weight and power class, D stands for diesel, CDI for the later common-rail direct injection, the KA suffix marks panel-van versions, and 4X4 the four-wheel drive.

The register lists 152 versions with kerb weights of 1,315 to 3,395 kg and gross vehicle weights of 3,200 to 3,500 kg, matching the upper limit of the class. Engine outputs are recorded for 34 of the models and range from 48 to 135 kW, displacements from 1,595 to 4,249 cm³ across 4 to 6 cylinders; width runs from 1,850 to 2,550 mm, and lengths are recorded for 79 models, from 4,470 to 7,920 mm.
As the lightest range in the Mercedes-Benz commercial vehicle programme, the T1/T2 competed chiefly with the Ford Transit and VW LT, while the Sprinter set the benchmark in the 3.5-tonne class from the mid-1990s and still serves today as the basis for motorhomes, ambulances and panel-van conversions.
On a used example, what matters on the older T1/T2 models is frame and floor corrosion and the condition of the propshaft, on the Sprinter the turbocharger and injectors of the CDI engines, plus the brakes, clutch, and on panel vans the condition of the load-area flooring; spare parts are readily available through the dense Mercedes-Benz service network.

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.
