Vehicle Description
The 2008 Dodge Sprinter passenger van's clear advantages are in the
realms of cargo capacity, passenger space and comfort, available
body configurations, and driving dynamics. It doesn't take long to
realize how different the Sprinter is -- a mere glance will
suffice. Its sloping front end, long wheelbases and two tall body
styles give the impression that a strong breeze could make it tip
over like a boozed-up co-ed. Yet it's actually just as wide as the
GM and Ford models, but handles more like a midsize SUV than a
plumber's van. Also, Mercedes says it engineered the stability
control system to compensate for the taller center of gravity and
shifting cargo loads. A further examination of the Sprinter's
dimensions reveals a standard wheelbase even longer than the
Econoline's extended-wheelbase model, and at 273 inches, the
largest Dodge Sprinter is almost 2.5 feet longer than the biggest
GM van. The Sprinter is also the only full-size van to offer a
choice of factory roof heights. The high roof option provides a
cavernous 76.4 inches of interior height, allowing a 6-foot-3-inch
person to walk around upright. To accomplish the same task,
Econoline and Express/Savana passengers would have to be no taller
than 4-foot-4. Those vans, therefore, require an aftermarket
conversion if they are to be used as people-carrying shuttles. With
The 3.0-liter turbodiesel V6 standard. The diesel provides
excellent fuel economy and ample torque for urban and suburban
uses. Overall, though, we think the 2008 Dodge Sprinter should be
an appealing choice for many full-size van buyers needing 12
passenger capabilities. The Sprinter's large body style and quality
construction make it an excellent choice in this segment. That
price disparity is probably erased for those who would otherwise
rely on an aftermarket outfitter to create a passenger shuttle.
