Low-Roof 2016 4x4 Mercedes Sprinter Camper For Sale

A professionally converted low-roof 2016 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 4x4 is listed for sale for $82,500 (approx. €71,870). The van is owned by Ryan, who says he bought it when the odometer showed 13,000 miles (20,921 km) and has run it to the current 95,000 miles (152,888 km). The conversion was carried out in collaboration with Chewy Design Co., an Austin, Texas firm featured on Magnolia Network's Van Go and led by Brett Lewis.

Exterior, roof and towing

The Sprinter presents in white with custom vinyl decals added to the lower side panels. It rides on black Sprinter wheels shod with BFGoodrich all-terrain tires. An Aluminess ladder on the driver side gives access to an Aluminess roof rack that carries a 180 W solar panel, Rigid lights and a Thule cargo box. The front bumper has a 2-inch hitch receiver, and the owner fitted a second tow hitch rated to 5,000 lb. (2,268 kg) towing capacity with 500 lb. (227 kg) tongue weight.

Interior layout, kitchen and living space

The interior is open between the cab and living area, with the passenger seat mounted on a swivel so it can face the rear when parked. Insulated window covers from Strawfoot Handmade are fitted for privacy and thermal control. Interior finishes include a tongue and groove cedar ceiling, grey laminated cabinetry, white walls, wood-imitating vinyl plank flooring and walnut trim pieces such as a window frame and an overhead shelf.

The kitchen is split into two modules. One module, forward of the entrance, houses a deep stainless steel sink with a pull-out faucet, a large butcher block counter and a Dometic vent fan to extract cooking fumes. The opposite module by the sliding door is a counter with two storage areas: one enclosed cabinet and one compartment under a hinged countertop. Additional storage includes a large drawer on heavy-duty slides sized for a chest-style fridge/freezer, four small overhead shelves, a cutlery drawer and a cabinet beneath the sink.

At the rear the living area converts between a U-shaped seating arrangement with a removable Lagun table and a sleeping layout. A panel fills the central gap and cushions are rearranged to form an almost queen-size bed intended for two adults. Bench seats have hinged tops to reveal storage; the driver-side bench contains the electrical system, so it is not used for general storage.

The electrical system comprises a 330 Ah Voltronix battery bank and a 2,000 W Renogy inverter. The battery bank can be replenished from three sources: solar power, shore power via an exterior inlet and DC-DC charging from the vehicle alternator while the engine is running, the latter allowing charging on the move.

Heating is provided by an Espar diesel heater that is tapped into the vehicle fuel tank and installed inside the passenger seat base. The sleeping area includes a bunk-style window with a sliding screen and charging outlets. Ceiling hooks designed to hold ropes are used to stow surfboards, and the owner reports space to carry two boards in that arrangement.

Ryan describes the van as being in great condition and offers it for sale at the quoted price. The listing combines off-road capability, compact low-roof packaging and a full set of systems intended for off-grid use, all built in collaboration with Chewy Design Co.
