Write a review
The 2023 Mercedes-Benz Metris is a large passenger van for when a minivan just won’t satisfy your needs. It is more refined than many other large passenger vans are, and it offers features you can’t get in them to boot
What’s New for the 2023 Mercedes-Benz Metris
There are no changes for the 2023 model year Metris van, as this will be its final year of production.
Design
On large passenger vans such as these, there is not much room for style personalization. Luckily, the Metris has a handsome presence with its raked headlights and large Mercedes logo. Variation comes down to purpose, and it is offered with 180-degree opening side-hinged doors or a minivan-like tailgate. The Metris also has sliding doors on both sides of the van, and it is available with power electric sliding doors.
The standard visual setup for the Metris has black plastic bumpers and steel wheels. A Premium Exterior Package is available that adds body-colored bumpers, a chrome grille, and black roof rails. There is also a selection of available alloy wheels.
Powertrain
No matter which version or configuration of the 2023 Metris you select, it comes equipped with a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine. It makes 208 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque. Power is routed to the rear wheels through a nine-speed automatic transmission.
When properly equipped, the Metris can tow up to 5,000 pounds, which is an impressive figure for a van such as this. EPA fuel economy estimates for the Metris are 18 mpg city, 22 highway, and 19 combined. Premium fuel is recommended for this powertrain.
Interior
There are multiple interior configurations for the Metris passenger van. The seven-passenger and eight-passenger versions offer three rows, with the seven-passenger version deleting the second-row seat closest to the right-side sliding door. The Metris passenger van provides 38 cubic feet of cargo space behind the rear seats.
In base form, the Metris is pretty spartan on standard features. Most are à la carte or package additions. A Cold Weather Package adds heated front seats and a heated window washer. A Driver Comfort Package adds power-adjustable front seats with seat-back storage nets. Air conditioning is a standalone option. This package also adds an upgraded suspension for a more comfortable ride.
Technology
A 7-inch touchscreen infotainment system comes as standard equipment on the 2023 Metris passenger van. It provides connectivity for features like Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.
Safety
The Metris comes equipped with a number of safety features such as automatic emergency braking, a backup camera, hill-start assist, and active brake assist. It also comes with a crosswind assist function and driver-attention monitoring. Optional safety features include lane-departure warning, blind-spot monitoring, rain-sensing wipers, and adaptive cruise control.
Pricing
At the time of this writing, the 2023 Mercedes-Benz Metris passenger van has a base MSRP of $43,600. There are a number of different configuration combinations which can alter and increase the price.
