Mercedes-Benz Korea will officially launch the "The New Mercedes-Benz V-Class," a seven-seat premium multi-purpose vehicle (MPV), in the domestic market for the first time and begin full-scale sales. The model being introduced domestically is the single trim, V 300 d 4MATIC Exclusive, with a price set at 124 million won including VAT.

Customer deliveries of the vehicle will begin sequentially starting November 16. Since its debut in 1996, the V-Class has been a best-selling model that has set the standard for premium MPVs in global markets, including Europe, by combining generous interior space and excellent versatility with Mercedes-Benz's signature refinement and comfort. Kim Eun-joong, Senior Vice President of Product and Sales at Mercedes-Benz Korea, emphasized that it will become a new benchmark satisfying a wide range of demand, from family and leisure use to VIP shuttles.

The exterior exudes a majestic yet sophisticated presence through a chrome grille with LED lighting, the vertical Mercedes star emblem on the hood, and adaptive multi-beam LED headlamps. The powertrain features an OM654 diesel engine producing a maximum output of 237 horsepower and peak torque of 51.0kgf.m, paired with a 9G-TRONIC automatic transmission and the 4MATIC all-wheel drive system. It records a combined fuel efficiency of 10.5km/l, delivering stable driving performance in both urban and long-distance conditions. Notably, the massive body, measuring 5,270mm in overall length and 3,200mm in wheelbase, is equipped with AIRMATIC suspension, unique among MPV models sold domestically. This allows for active control of body movement according to road conditions and provides optimal ride comfort even during long-distance travel.

The interior features a digital instrument cluster equipped with two 12.3-inch widescreen displays and the MBUX infotainment system. Convenience has been enhanced with second-row luxury seats featuring heating and ventilation functions, a Burmester surround sound system boasting 15 speakers and 640W output, a digital rearview mirror, and comfort closing functionality. In particular, it is the only model among domestic competitors to feature an openable tailgate window, maximizing everyday practicality by allowing relatively small items such as shopping bags or luggage to be loaded easily without opening the entire tailgate.
