New Sprinter is Crowned Van of the Year at Reader-Voted Commercial Fleet Awards

Tuesday 4th December 2018 Get our latest news into your inbox

The new Mercedes-Benz Sprinter has been crowned Van of the Year at the prestigious Commercial Fleet Awards, held on the 29th November in the Hilton Metropole, Birmingham.

Van of the Year was judged this year by readers of Commercial Fleet, the van operators themselves, who use these vehicles in their daily work.

The judges commented: “Recently voted by FN50 leasing companies as the most reliable van in the sector, fleet decision-makers have now voted the Sprinter as their favourite. The Sprinter is a high quality, safety-focused and technology-laden vehicle with a broad range of options to suit everyone, making it an ideal choice for virtually every type of fleet operation.

Steve Bridge, Managing Director, Mercedes-Benz Vans UK Ltd, added: “The Sprinter is a true workhorse that keeps businesses moving, and we are so proud that the new Sprinter continues to raise the bar. Awards judged by van operators mean so much to us and we’re pleased to have built a van that continues to impress the industry.”

The Mercedes-Benz eActros 600 continues to demonstrate what zero-emission transport can achieve, having successfully completed the legendary John O’Groats to Land’s End route in just over 24 hours — the first electric HGV to do so.

Travelling 1,378 km with only three charging stops, the journey showcased the practicality of electric power for long-distance haulage. Running solely on renewable electricity, the 39.5-tonne eActros 600 delivered a range exceeding 500 km per charge, achieved an average efficiency of 1.175 km/kWh, and prevented more than one tonne of CO₂ emissions compared to a diesel equivalent.

This achievement reinforces that electric heavy goods vehicles are already capable of meeting the demands of modern transport operations.

The challenge also supported Globe Truckers UK, helping shine a light on the wellbeing of the drivers who keep our industry moving.

The build has officially commenced! 🏗️

We’re excited to share that we’ve officially broken ground on our brand-new Ciceley Commercials Truck and Bus dealership at Eurocentral! Clark Contracts began work on-site on Monday, and it’s fantastic to see 18 months of planning finally coming to life.

To support our customers as soon as possible, we’ll be opening a temporary workshop in early 2026—ensuring operators across Scotland continue to receive the service and support they rely on while we build something truly special.

🔧 Huge things are coming… stay tuned!

We had a very special guest at our stand today — Sandy, better known on social media as @flat_out_flat_broke_sandy_. He’s a real-talking, owner-driver influencer who knows his way around the cab. He stopped to take a look at Robert Summers vehicle which we have displayed on our stand. 🚛

Huge thanks to Sandy for stopping by and sharing his thoughts — come and see the ProCabin for yourself, or ask us to show you what he was talking about! 👀
