What is the curb weight of the Mercedes-Benz V260?
2 Answers
The weight of the Mercedes-Benz V260 is 3.1 tons, positioned as a mid-to-large-sized MPV. Appearance of the Mercedes-Benz V260: The slightly raised front hood, blackened three-pointed star emblem and front grille, sporty body kit, and carbon fiber decorations at the air blade positions give this vehicle a poised and ready-to-go stance. Power of the Mercedes-Benz V260: The Mercedes-Benz V260 business vehicle is equipped with the M274 2.0T high-power turbocharged engine (211 horsepower, 350N·m), which can output peak torque at 1200rpm, minimizing turbo lag. The combined fuel consumption is only 8.5L/100km.
My Mercedes-Benz V260 feels very solid to drive, weighing around 2.4 tons. Its substantial size is mainly due to the extensive use of high-strength steel, with particularly thick front and rear anti-collision beams. You can feel the heft just by closing the doors. Last time I took my family of six on a long trip, it felt exceptionally stable when cornering, unlike some smaller cars that feel light and floaty. However, the fuel consumption is indeed higher, reaching over 12 liters per 100km in city driving with AC on. When driving this type of vehicle, it's important to maintain higher tire pressure than sedans - the manufacturer recommends 2.7 bar for the front tires and 3.0 bar for the rear tires, as it needs to support this weight.
