Sprinter City 77

MB Sprinter Rentals USA

Mercedes-Benz Sprinter City 77 – not the typical Sprinter model you can rent with Sprinter Rentals USA but interesting to see and for you as renter another conformation: you are renting the most versatile vehicle in the van rental market. The first Mercedes-Benz Sprinter City 77 was delivered to the customer on 5th of December 2011. Roland Sabais, Head of Sales at Mercedes-Benz Buses and Coaches Western Region and Mark Freymüller, Head of Sales and Marketing at Mercedes-Benz Minibuses, handed over the symbolic key to Christian Winzenhöler, General Manager of the bus operator Winzenhoeler. The decision-making criteria for the purchase of the Sprinter City 77 were its high passenger capacity despite very compact dimensions, its maneuverability and economic aspects. The Sprinter City 77 is top-of-the-line city bus in the minibus range. With a length of 8.7 meters, the Mercedes-Benz Sprinter City 77 is the current top-of-the-line city bus in the Mercedes-Benz minibus range. Like the body of the Sprinter City 77, the low-floor chassis with a tandem rear axle is an exclusive in-house development by the Mercedes-Benz Minibus product unit.With a passenger capacity of up to 40, it closes the gap between the Sprinter City 65 and the 10.5 m long Citaro K. Compared to the previous top model in this vehicle series, the Sprinter City 65, the Sprinter City 77 has around one meter more length – all to the benefit of the passenger area – ten additional passenger spaces, a continuous, level low floor in the passenger area and a second wheelchair space. It has this high transport capacity thanks to a permissible gross vehicle weight of 6.8 t.
The chassis of the three-axle Sprinter City 77 has an independent suspension all-round and single tyres. Thanks to its comparatively short wheelbase and slim dimensions, even this largest model in the Mercedes-Benz city minibus range is ideal for narrow inner-city streets. In addition the Sprinter City 77 is highly suitable as a shuttle bus for airports and exhibitions, or for inter-urban operations.

Painted in arctic white, the Sprinter City 77 is powered by a 4-cylinder CDI diesel engine developing 120 kW (163 hp). A 5-speed automatic transmission is standard equipment. Meeting the Euro V and EEV emission standards (Enhanced Environmentally Friendly Vehicle), the Sprinter City 77 is set to be the most environmentally friendly bus in the Winzenhöler fleet. To cater for passengers with impaired mobility, a second wheelchair space with a folding ramp at door 2 was ordered in addition to the standard wheelchair space at door 1.
