Sprinter and Vito — what the three-digit number says

On Mercedes vans the three-digit number is not a model name but a shorthand for two facts. The first digit gives the weight class, the following two the power class. A Sprinter 313 CDI produces 129 hp, a 316 CDI 156 hp — the number rises with engine output while the leading 3 holds the class.

More important than the number for a used purchase, however, is the internal series code. W906 denotes the Sprinter generation from June 2006 to December 2019 — thirteen years under one code. W907 and W910 followed. Comparing two offers both called "Sprinter 313", look for the series code and the year, not the type number.

Within the W906 there was a technical break: from mid-2009 the four-cylinder diesels came with the OM 651 engine, coupled to a six-speed manual designed for commercial use. A 2008 vehicle and a 2012 one carry the same type designation and have different engines.

Entries in this class come largely from official registration data. Dimensions, weights and axle counts are reliable; equipment, body height and wheelbase of individual vehicles are not consistently recorded there and should be checked on the vehicle itself when buying.
