Vehicles · Choosing a Platform

Sprinter or box truck?

The honest answer: it depends on your workflow, not your budget. Both platforms carry the same systems. Here's how to choose.

Side-by-Side

Platform comparison

Mercedes Sprinter

Choose the Sprinter when…

  • Your routes run through city streets, tight parking, and daily repositioning
  • The driving experience matters, because many different staff members will drive it
  • You need the AWD option for snowy days, mud, or tougher terrain
  • You want 2nd row bench seating to sit 4-5 passengers total

Box Truck

Choose the box truck when…

  • The program needs more space or just the space to feel more open
  • Your equipment is heavy or wide: imaging units, compressor systems, retail displays
  • You want the space to feel like a traditional environment with straight walls and ceiling
Shared Systems

What's the same either way

The systems don't change: lithium battery power, Starlink and cellular connectivity, all season climate control, ADA accessibility options, and a custom interior built around your workflow. And neither platform requires a CDL.

Common Questions

Common questions

01Which one costs more?

Neither, inherently. The program drives the cost, not the platform. See our pricing guide for current ranges.

02Which do most organizations pick?

Most builds land on the Sprinter for its footprint and drivability. Programs with two room layouts or heavy equipment go box truck. We'll tell you honestly which fits yours.

03Can we decide during the design process?

Yes. The discovery call and 3D model stage is exactly where this gets settled, before any deposit locks a platform.
