Whether you’re shuttling a crew, transporting your growing family, or looking for a van to support your business, this vehicle offers a smart balance of performance, practicality, and comfort—all with the premium touch you’d expect from Mercedes-Benz.
And the best part? You can find this standout van right here at Red Deer Motors.
Why Choose the 2018 Metris Passenger Van?
The Metris might not scream “luxury” at first glance, but dig a little deeper and you’ll see why it’s one of the best-kept secrets in the passenger van market. Here’s what sets it apart:
European Build Quality
Unlike many vans in its class, the Metris is engineered with the same attention to detail Mercedes-Benz brings to all of its vehicles. That means a solid chassis, refined driving dynamics, and a smooth ride you wouldn’t normally expect in a van.
Efficient Turbo Power
Under the hood, the Metris comes with a 2.0L turbocharged 4-cylinder engine that pumps out 208 horsepower and 258 lb-ft of torque. Paired with a 7-speed automatic transmission, the van delivers surprisingly peppy performance with excellent highway manners. Plus, with a fuel economy rating of around 10.5 L/100km combined, it’s impressively efficient for a vehicle of this size.
Seating for 7 or 8
Need to move people comfortably? The Metris Passenger Van seats up to 8 adults with ample headroom and legroom in all rows. The interior is spacious, well-laid-out, and features durable materials designed for years of daily use—whether you’re using it for family trips or business purposes.
Practical Cargo Options
The Metris also offers versatility. With rear seats that can be removed or reconfigured, it transforms into a capable cargo hauler when needed. Whether you’re transporting sports gear, tools, or even doing weekend DIY runs, the Metris handles it with ease.
Safety Comes Standard
Mercedes-Benz doesn’t skimp on safety. The 2018 Metris includes standard features like Crosswind Assist, Load-Adaptive Electronic Stability, and attention assist to help keep your drive smooth and secure. Optional features include a rearview camera, blind spot monitoring, and lane keeping assist.
