Another strange little machine that seems from kilter with the rest of the Mercedes-Benz line-up. Competing against such cars since the Citroen Berlingo and Peugeot Partner but appreciably more expensive – the vehicle looks like a minivan with windows.

It handles and rides like one, too. Positive factors are a insightful interior space – made all of the more usable by its square passenger compartment and load area – and surprisingly good economy.

Add Mercedes-Benz’s traditionally high residual values and also the car starts to make sense for those who choose to drive boxy vehicles. Mercedes-Benz suggests the perfect purchaser is really a half of a family having a couple of children along with a dog, the Mercedes-Benz Vaneo being the things they consider to be the perfect second car.
