HELLA has named the Mercedes-Benz Sprinter van as its vehicle of the month for August, showcasing its comprehensive parts offering for this popular light commercial vehicle (LCV).
HELLA provides over 291 parts for the Sprinter, encompassing lighting, electronics, switches, sensors, electrics, exhaust components, and filters. These parts are in high demand for maintaining these reliable but high-mileage workhorses.
“One of the unexpected outcomes of the online shopping boom has been the fact that delivery vans have become an even more common sight than ever before,” said Helen Goldingay, UK Marketing and Communications Manager at HELLA, “and the Mercedes-Benz Sprinter is among the most reliable examples out there. However, considering the astronomical mileage many of them are doing as they serve our home delivery needs, they are definitely in need of regular attention from garages. This makes parts availability a major priority.”
The Sprinter, launched in 1995, has seen three generations, available in various configurations including standard vans, dropsides, minibuses, and even electric versions in recent years. Between January and June 2024, it was the fourth best-selling LCV and the best-selling non-Ford van in the UK.
“By focusing on the parts we provide for the Mercedes-Benz Sprinter,” said Helen, “HELLA is providing a prime example of how far-reaching our parts portfolio is on the LCV front, and the VRN look-up available via HELLA TECH WORLD will show all the parts available.”
