The new Viano X-CLUSIVE

Be reasonable. Listen to your heart

There are some things you can’t explain – you just have to touch them, feel them, immerse yourself in them. The new Viano X-CLUSIVE is a great example. Its sporty elegance and dynamic personality make this special model a thoroughbred among MPVs. A powerful performer with muscular lines, it also has a real affinity for the finer things in life: with its fine leather, stylish

wood trim elements and attractive colours, the Viano X-CLUSIVE certainly lives up to its name. As always, superbly spacious accommodation, a highly flexible interior and exemplary safety are part of the deal – after all, the Viano X-CLUSIVE is under-pinned by all the strengths of a genuine Viano.

Whether in compact guise, measuring 4.7 metres or in the long version (4.99 metres), the Viano X-CLUSIVE is always the centre of attention thanks to a series of exclusive design features which add a sporty and distinctive touch to the pleasing lines of the Viano. Take the bumpers, for example: specially developed for the X-CLUSIVE, they have integral front and rear spoilers which give the vehicle a decidedly powerful presence. The large, chromed exhaust tailpipe is another striking feature. Viewed from the side, the Viano X-CLUSIVE makes a particularly sporty impression: the combination of the aerodynamically designed side skirts and the impressive 18-inch light-alloy wheels clearly announces the dynamic character of the vehicle.

To ensure that the Viano X-CLUSIVE delivers performance to match its sporty looks, it is equipped exclusively with powerful six-cylinder engines: there is a highly advanced V6 CDI unit with piezo injectors whose 150-kW (204-hp) output and 440-Nm maximum torque offer extremely rewarding driving dynamics. A similar sense of effortless superiority is provided by the 3.5-litre V6 petrol engine which develops 190 kW (258 hp) and whose exceptionally smooth running characteristics and harmonious power delivery make for a compelling driving experience.

The Viano X-CLUSIVE. Style on a grand scale

The Viano X-CLUSIVE is based on the high-quality AMBIENTE design and equipment line. This means that, in addition to an elegant and sporty ambience, a high level of comfort is also guaranteed: self-levelling rear air suspension is standard, as are driver and front passenger thorax sidebags and elegant dark or light burr-walnut-effect decor strips.

As the driver and front passenger board the vehicle, they are welcomed by illuminated entrance areas and soft carpeting. All six individual seats, the multifunction steering wheel, the gearshift lever and parts of the door linings are finished in leather as standard. The individual seats can also be finished in exclusive TWIN leather Alcantara as an option. The PARKTRONIC parking aid, a headlamp cleaning system as well as a brilliant silver or obsidian black metallic paint finish are also included in the comprehensive standard equipment of the Viano X-CLUSIVE.

Elegant features that make a distinct difference

Whether you use it for everyday transport or long trips, you can always count on the Viano X-CLUSIVE to provide an extremely comfortable and flexible travelling environment thanks to its highly adaptable seating system. Easily adjustable in 25-mm steps, the seats can even be set up face to face, if required. This means that you have a wide choice of different seating configurations which can be adjusted to your specific needs at any time. The six standard-fit individual seats are finished

Welcome to First Class

in anthracite-coloured “Catania” leather. If you would like to have more seating accommodation, the rear section can be equipped optionally with three-seater bench seats in “Catania” leather. An even more eye-catching interior can be created by specifying the exclusive TWIN leather Alcantara upholstery combination which is available for the six individual seats in the colours pebble or anthracite.

Take-back of end-of-life vehicles. Coming full circle At the end of its long life, you can return your Viano to us for environment-friendly disposal in accordance with the EU End-Of-Life Vehicle Directive.

But that day lies a long way off.

End-of-life vehicle take-back applies in accordance with national regulations. The Viano has always met the statutory regulations governing the suitability of the vehicle’s design for reuse and recycling right from the start. A network of vehicle take-back depots and dismantlers has been established

which will process your vehicle in an environment-friendly manner. The ways in which both vehicles and parts can be recovered are subject to ongoing development and improvement. Consequently, the Viano will be able to comply with any future increases in the recycling quota within the stipulated time limits.

Further information is available by visiting www.mercedes-benz.com and/or by contacting your national Hotline.
