The Mercedes Sprinter 4×4 has become one of the most popular vehicles for overland travel, and for good reason. The Sprinter cut its teeth as an industry workhorse and is fabled for its reliability, driveability, build quality, and relatively low running costs. It was for these reasons and more that it was soon the van of choice for camper conversions and is undoubtedly the aftermarket darling. The standard 4×4 variant already boasts impressive backcountry attributes such as intelligent AWD, a lifted suspension, armor, and low range, but the ultimate Sprinter is widely considered the Iglhaut Allrad. The German based company reimagines the Mercedes from the ground up for hardcore exploration. It boasts a heavy-duty 4WD system with high and low range, an overhauled suspension, front, center, and rear lockers, and many other desirable all-terrain specifications. It’s the ideal choice for those seeking a 4WD platform for global exploration but who want to avoid the excessive running costs associated with larger expedition trucks. Cue today’s 2021 Iglhaut Mercedes Sprinter Expedition truck (21,600 miles), which showcases extensive premium parts and an exceptionally well-equipped BoXmanufaktur custom composite box. At $399,900, this is not a budget rig, but it’s $225,000 cheaper than Rogue Vans RC-1 Sprinter and a fraction of the price of expedition trucks from the likes of Global Expedition Vehicles, EarthRoamer, and Bimobil, yet incorporates many of the same desirable attributes and key advantages. Further still, it enjoys access to Mercedes’ fabled dealer network, which means access to parts and services almost anywhere in the world.
