2 Answers
Mercedes-Benz's V-Class is a domestically produced car, manufactured by Fujian Mercedes-Benz. Below is an introduction to the Mercedes-Benz V-Class: 1. The Mercedes-Benz V-Class is equipped with a 2.0-liter turbocharged engine across the entire lineup. This engine has a maximum power of 155 kW, a maximum torque of 350 Nm, a maximum power speed of 5500 rpm, and a maximum torque speed range of 1250 to 4000 rpm. The engine features direct fuel injection technology and uses an aluminum alloy cylinder head and block. 2. Paired with this engine is a 7-speed automatic manual transmission. The front suspension of the V-Class uses a MacPherson independent suspension, while the rear suspension uses a semi-trailing arm independent suspension. 3. The body dimensions are 5140mm in length, 1928mm in width, and 1880mm in height, with a wheelbase of 3200mm.
As a car enthusiast, I often pay attention to MPV models like the Mercedes-Benz V-Class. The Mercedes-Benz V-Class indeed has a domestically produced version in China, manufactured by Beijing Benz, primarily assembled at the factory in Beijing. This is really great because localization makes the price more affordable, significantly cheaper than the imported models. I remember visiting a 4S dealership, and the domestically produced V-Class comes with high-end configurations, such as a more luxurious interior and spacious cabin, making it particularly suitable for family trips. Another advantage of local production is the convenience of maintenance and repairs, with faster parts supply, so you don’t have to worry about long waits. I guess Mercedes-Benz is doing this to capture the Chinese market, especially as MPVs are becoming increasingly popular. In short, choosing the domestically produced version is a cost-effective option.
