Why Rent a Sprinter Van?

  • Comfort and Space: High roofs and open layouts mean you can actually stand up inside—no crouching or contorting.

  • Fuel Efficiency: Diesel engines make them ideal for long hauls with fewer gas stops.

  • Safety and Reliability: Mercedes-Benz engineering and performance diesel engines mean peace of mind on the road.

  • Luxury and Versatility: They can serve as a mobile office, family camper, soccer team hauler, or cross-country cruiser.

From family road trips to solo expeditions, a Sprinter van gives you the space and features to do it all—without the bulk of a full-size RV.

Types of Sprinter Van Rentals

These days, rarely are two Sprinter vans built the same. Here’s a quick guide to help you find the right fit:

Luxury Camper Vans

Believe it or not, top-of-the-line Sprinter vans can cost up to $300,000 to own. If you can dream it, you can build it. These rigs typically include kitchens, bathrooms, showers, solar power, improved tires and suspension, and exterior accessories galore. These interiors are typically built out by professional builders with the Mercedes-Benz Expert Upffitter designation. If you desire a newer, low-mileage luxury Sprinter, expect to pay north of $350 per night.

How Much Does It Cost to Rent a Sprinter Van?

Prices vary depending on location, size, and features, but standard daily rates are between $200–$350 per night for most camper and passenger builds. Luxury, low-mileage Class B RVs will cost more, while DIY conversions can be more affordable.

Are Sprinter Vans Pet-Friendly?

Many of our Sprinter van rentals allow pets! Look for “Pet-Friendly” in the listing description before booking, or ask the host directly about their pet policy.

Can I Take a Sprinter Van Off-Road?

Only if it’s built for it and only if the host allows it. Many 4x4 or AWD models are adventure capable, but for liability purposes, your host may want you to stick to paved or graded roads. Keep in mind that 4x4 vehicles cannot be towed like a standard two-wheel-drive sedan and often require flatbed transport. Always check your rental host’s off-road policy.
