The next generation of the Mercedes-Benz Sprinter has been spotted undergoing hot weather testing in Spain.

Camouflaging around the front of the vehicle suggests the Sprinters will have a new-look grille, which is expected along with the possibility of smaller headlight clusters.

The picture does not show the effort that had gone into hiding the interior of the test vehicle, which hints at a significant update to the Sprinter’s dashboard.

Also expected for the new Sprinter vans are more efficient engines and a series of new safety features.
