4 Tailor-made transport: an idea with staying power Take the advantages of a van, combine them with the strengths of a light-duty truck and apply a modular principle. The result is a recipe for success a recipe to which the Vario owes its exceptional positioning within the van segment. To ensure that it maintains that position, we have built in a little future-proofing with modified engines and transmissions, a new interior and above all with BlueTec SCR diesel technology from Mercedes-Benz, which enables your Vario to comply with the EURO 4 emissions standard. The Vario is available in over 60 ex - factory variants, models ranging from the more conventional panel van to chassis versions for specific body solutions. This immensely broad, application-oriented range and the wide variety of individualisation and custom-body options ensure that there is a Vario for virtually every commercial need. Or in other words, the Vario that doesn t exist has yet to be invented. Over 60 variants ex factory and around 500 items of special equipment A variety of bodies such as panel van, pickup or tipper Standard cab or crewcab 2 different roof heights Comfortable workplace, easy handling and tremendous ease of loading 4 wheelbases from 3150 mm to 4800 mm 2 weight variants: 5.99 t and 7.49 t with further uprated and downrated variants Load capacity of 10.4 m³ to 17.4 m³ Strong, robust, ladder-type frame more familiar on a truck, combined with typical van qualities such as low frame height and, as an option, through-access from the cab to the load area Vario chassis as ideal foundation for custom-bodied solutions 3 modified four-cylinder diesel engines with high maximum torque and up to 130 kw (177 hp) Cost-effective compliance with EURO 4 emissions standard, thanks to pioneering BlueTec SCR diesel technology 6-speed manual transmission for all models, 5-speed automatic transmission as an option (not for tipper or all-wheel drive) Vario 813 DA, 816 DA and 818 DA available with permanent all-wheel drive 4 Concept and variants

6 Presenting the ideal business model Based on an adaptable range of combinations and custom-body options, the Vario model series offers tailor-made yet cost-effective vans for your transportation needs. Ideal, whether you re transporting packaged or bulk goods, urgent deliveries or sensitive items, tools or a whole team of workers. Whichever variant you decide on, there are certain core qualities that all of our Vario models share the legendary quality, reliability and longevity that characterise a Mercedes-Benz van.

8 The panel van. Space in abundance Load capacities similar to those of a light-duty truck combined with the handling qualities of a van if this is what you are looking for, the Vario panel van is the perfect solution. In terms of both payload and capacity, this is a giant among vans, and the ideal partner in regional haulage, in industry and commerce, in the removals business or in the public sector. The Vario panel van offers a choice of different capacities and equipment, designed to meet your own personal requirements and to tailor your van specifically to your intended use. The panel van is packed with intelligent, well-engineered details: the virtually vertical side walls and the optionally available flattened wheel housings, for example, ensure an effective use of space when stacking or when adding individual interior fittings. The Vario panel van is ideally designed for loading Europallets too. Three wheelbase variants Standard and high-roof versions with 1785-mm or 1930-mm headroom Load capacity of 10.4 m³ to 17.4 m³ Payload of up to around 3.9 t Different bulkhead options plus different combinations of rear doors and sliding side doors Convenient loading and unloading of Europallets using forklift Hinged rear doors with an opening angle of 180 and 270 Sliding door on right of load compartment, or both sides as an option Steps at all doors, making loading and unloading easier Option of passenger compartment, providing space for up to 7 people in total All-wheel-drive version also available (3700 and 4250 mm wheelbase) Practically vertical side walls, optional flattened wheel housings 8 The Vario panel van

10 The pickup. A reliable partner With its proven record as a hard worker, the Vario pickup offers maximum payload limits which make it perfect for heavy loads ideal, for example, in the construction industry, in the building materials trade, in the haulage sector or when transporting packaged goods. It is available with a standard cab or a crewcab. The crewcab comfortably seats up to 7 and still leaves plenty of room for cargo in the pickup body. Choosing a Vario pickup means refusing to compromise both in terms of suitability for everyday use and in terms of longevity. The various sizes of aluminium platforms feature solid fixtures and a robust design everything is where it should be, and there is an unmistakable logic behind every design decision. You can tell straight away that this is a van that is based on practical expertise and designed for practical use. Four wheelbase variants Load area of 6.92 m² to m² Payload of approx. 2.5 t to around 4.2 t, depending on model and weight category Crewcab with space for up to 7 people Aluminium platform with non-slip plywood floor with textured surface All three sides of the aluminium platform can be dropped down completely for easy loading and unloading Non-slip, folding step as standard Securing rings as easy and safe means of restraining load Extra-wide pickup body with aluminium sides as an option Tarpaulin hoops available as an option Pre-installation for loading tailgate as an option All-wheel-drive version also available (3700-mm wheelbase) 10 The Vario pickup

12 The tipper. A versatile all-rounder When the load is heavy and the roads are narrow, the Vario tipper comes into its own. With power steering and a turning circle approaching that of a car, it is as impressive on cramped building sites as it is in the horticulture and landscaping sectors. The extremely practical combination of high payload and easy handling is also available with a crewcab as an option. True to their origins, all Vario tippers are extremely versatile. Configured as a three-way tipper ex factory, they can be loaded with up to around 3.8 tonnes and unloaded from the right, left or rear. And if you have to deal with more than your fair share of rough terrain, you will appreciate the versions with permanent all-wheel drive and standard-fitted inter-axle and rear differential locks. Two wheelbase variants Payload of up to around 3.8 t thanks to reinforced tipper body and reinforced frame Available with optional crewcab, which seats up to 7, instead of standard cab Vario 813 DA/816 DA /818 DA allwheel-drive tippers designed for use on rough terrain (3700-mm wheelbase) 12 The Vario tipper

14 The ideal workplace The timeless design is continued inside the Vario. You ll be impressed by the clear layout and functionality of the cab and the robustness of the materials used. There is space in abundance on board and ample comfort for up to 7 people. Comfort is a key factor here. After all, the job itself is stressful enough.

15 The interior of the Vario has a straightforward design, free of unnecessary clutter that could distract the driver from the task in hand. The design fo cuses on taking the stress off the driver and providing the others on board with a relaxed, comfortable ride. Comfortable seats, designed to be kind to the back, providing excellent support for all occupants Driver s seat can be adjusted in a number of ways to provide a comfortable position that promotes focus on driving: the height, tilt, distance from the steering wheel and position of the backrest can be adjusted individually Clear cockpit layout, non-reflective instruments which can be read clearly by day or by night Optimised soundproofing reduces noise from engine and outside High-performance heating and ventilation system for a pleasant working climate Power steering as standard Large exterior mirrors Generously proportioned windscreen for excellent visibility Air conditioning as an option for enhanced comfort* Auxiliary heater with timer as an option *Air conditioning system for crewcab/passenger compartment via body manufacturer Interior and functionality 15

16 Cutting-edge technology for improved output, enhanced safety and a better future High-torque diesel engines, new transmission variants, extensive safety technology: the Vario meets every requirement of a large, cutting-edge van with consummate ease. And its new SCR diesel technology, BlueTec, helps you to comply cost-effectively with the EURO 4 standard. Mercedes-Benz s BlueTec technology in the Vario provides a futureproof, economically attractive solution to the question of compliance with the EURO 4 standard. It helps contribute to the Vario s cost-effectiveness as do the hightorque diesel engines and the vehicle s legendary durability and reliability. When it comes to safety, too, the Vario has always set new standards in its class.

44 Glossary AdBlue Fuel tank SCR cat. BlueTec SCR diesel technology BlueTec is the pioneering SCR diesel technology from Mercedes-Benz: a cost-effective and ecological solution which helps your Vario to comply with the EURO 4 emissions standard. The SCR (Selective Catalytic Reduction) exhaust gas treatment process is the only technology capable of ensuring the necessary reduction in exhaust gas emissions while optimising engine output and fuel consumption at the same time. The BlueTec system includes modified engines with a higher peak pressure, which improves combustion and reduces the number of particulates. Further components of the system include a catalytic converter and an AdBlue tank. AdBlue additive is simply filled up from a pump and carried in this separate tank on board. From here it is fed via a metering unit into the exhaust gas from the engine and is converted by the heat into ammonia, which is required for the chemical reaction in the catalytic converter. The catalytic reaction here converts the nitrogen oxides into ecologically harmless substances nitrogen and water. Anti-lock braking system (ABS) ABS prevents the wheels from locking during braking. Speed sensors contin - u ously monitor the speed of each wheel. If ABS detects that a wheel is at risk of locking up, the brake pressure is reduced. When the danger of locking has been averted, the pressure is increased again. ABS helps the driver to maintain steering control of the van, even during emergency braking. All-wheel drive The permanent all-wheel-drive variants of the Vario deliver enhanced pulling power and traction on difficult terrain. A selectable off-road ratio ensures greater tractive power on rough ground. To further improve traction, both the differential in the transfer case and the rear axle differential can be locked. Differential lock The differential lock ensures that the wheels of a driven axle turn at the same speed. This prevents individual wheels from spinning, which improves traction and enhances safety, particularly on uneven or slippery surfaces, when pulling away on a gradient or on rough terrain. Driver s front airbag To round off the safety equipment, a front airbag is available for the Vario s driver s seat. It enhances driver safety, acting in partnership with the seat belt as an additional retention system. Note: Airbags in no way diminish the need for occupants to fasten their seat belts correctly at all times. 44 Glossary

45 Load restraint Due to the dynamic forces which occur when transporting goods, an unsecured load can start moving uncontrollably due to slipping, tilting or rolling, thus increasing the risk of accident and injury. With their load-restraint systems and wide range of special equipment, Mercedes-Benz vans provide professional load-securing solutions. The Vario includes a range of different bulkhead variants and optional load-securing rings. (Above left and centre) Load restraint is primarily achieved by placing loads against the front or rear bulkheads and the sides of the vehicles, and then filling any gaps. It is also possible to use aids such as braces, bars or partition nets or cargo barriers (direct load restraint). (Above right) Loads can be tied down to the floor using lashings. This increases friction between load and floor, preventing slippage (indirect load restraint) Safety steering column The safety steering column, installed in the Vario in conjunction with the driver s front airbag, helps to reduce movement of the steering column in the event of a frontal collision. The aim is to minimise the risk of injury for the Vario driver in a frontal collision. The various joints and telescopic sections allow the safety steering column to yield in a frontal collision. In this way the movement of the steering wheel is largely decoupled from the deformation of the front-end structure of the vehicle. Three-point seat belts with belt tensioners Correctly worn three-point seat belts restrain vehicle occupants in their seats in the event of a frontal collision. The system can be extended with a pyrotechnic belt tensioner, which is available in conjunction with the driver s front airbag. If the belt tensioner is activated via the airbag control unit, it tautens the seat belt in fractions of a second. This means that the occupant takes part in the collision-induced vehicle deceleration in longitudinal direction at an early stage and as a result is subjected to a lower dynamic load. It can also reduce forward displacement of the occupant, so the danger of the head and body contacting the steering wheel and/or interior components is reduced. If the driver s front airbag (special equipment) is selected, the driver s seat is fitted with the belt tensioner as standard. Note: Never drive without wearing your seat belt! 45
