DaimlerChrysler – other models: from the 1998-to-2007 corporate merger, Mercedes vans such as the Sprinter and Vito alongside Chrysler, Jeep and Dodge models, four- to eight-cylinder engines from 2.1 to 5.9 litres

DaimlerChrysler was the name under which the German Daimler-Benz AG and the American Chrysler group operated as a merged company from 1998 to 2007. This page reflects that merger in its vehicle stock: Mercedes commercial vehicles such as the Sprinter and Vito stand alongside off-roaders and passenger cars from the group's American brands – the Jeep Grand Cherokee, the Chrysler PT Cruiser and Voyager, and the Dodge Ram 1500 and 2500 pick-ups – which were commercially registered as vans during this period. After the 2007 split, Daimler AG and Chrysler again ran their brands separately.

The register holds 26 versions here with four- to eight-cylinder engines from 2,143 to 5,883 cc, kerb weights from 1,480 to 2,712 kg, gross vehicle weights from 1,980 to 3,500 kg, lengths from 4,290 to 6,950 mm and widths from 1,720 to 2,090 mm.

The merger years brought Mercedes commercial vehicles and American Chrysler models technically closer together, for instance through the jointly developed common-rail diesel used in the Jeep Grand Cherokee. On the used market, these vehicles today form a transitional generation between the independent model programmes that preceded and followed the merger.

Used, on the Mercedes vans check for corrosion in the sliding-door runners and the service intervals of the common-rail diesels; on the Chrysler and Jeep models, check the condition of the axles and four-wheel-drive system, and, on the Grand Cherokee with the CRD engine, the timing chain. Parts for the Mercedes models come through the regular dealer network, while the American brands rely on importers and specialists.

What to check before buying

  • Check the hour meter against the service records — a replaced instrument is the most common gap.
