Evito Tourer

The eVito Tourer 129 MWB starts at $136,898 drive-away in Australia, depending on trim and options. "Mercedes benz evito tourer price" and "for sale" are top search terms for family, luxury shuttle, or airport fleet buyers. Options like Sport Pack alloys, panoramic glass roof, and Burmester audio add to the price. Fleet discounts and novated lease plans may further reduce the final outlay. Always consult your Mercedes dealer for the latest drive-away specials and business financing.

Official WLTP range is 421km, but in Australian urban testing, 240–318km is realistic, especially with passengers and loads. "EQA range" and "evito battery" are hot research queries for business and school run planners. Faster DC charging suits multi-shift operations, but overnight home charging is enough for most city/family loops. Taxis and hotels find this ideal for daily routes, but long interstate runs need careful planning. Consider payload and stop/start routes when calculating usage.

With 150kW and 365Nm, 0–100km/h comes up in 12.1 seconds—slower than many SUVs but ideal for traffic or loaded, kid-filled commutes. Reviewers call the power “adequate but leisurely” (Glenn Butler, Drive) and prefer the strong, silent surge in the 60–80km/h range for overtaking. Front-wheel drive and single-speed auto make launches smooth, with torque ascending linearly. The van is happiest steady cruising or running depot-to-airport shuttles. Sport/Comfort drive modes liven acceleration for priority pickups.

Standard 2+3+3 seating means up to 8 can travel in comfort, with captain’s or lounge-style setups available. “EV people mover”, “eqv 7 seater”, and "boot space" are crucial family queries. Even with all seats occupied, the boot remains at 1,030L—double what most SUVs can handle. Fold or slide the seats flat and you get over 4,600L for prams, bikes, or event equipment. Kids, adults, and luggage can finally fit without compromise.

Tech features include the MBUX infotainment suite with voice control, smartphone mirroring, digital radio, and wireless charging, as well as navigation and app-based monitoring. Safety comes from AEB, active lane-keep and blind-spot, crosswind assist, and a 360-degree camera; six airbags are standard for all passengers. Reviewers praise the “suite of active and passive safety features…” (Mark Oastler, CarsGuide), but note the system lacks speed sign recognition and isn’t yet ANCAP rated. The digital dash and retro physical controls balance user-friendliness. Families and businesses rate the Tourer among the best vans for tech value.

The eVito Tourer comes with a five-year, 250,000km vehicle warranty and eight years/160,000km battery coverage—among the longest for an electric van in Australia. Service intervals are every 40,000km or once per year, making it ideal for high-mileage fleets and couriers. "Warranty", "eqv battery cover", and "service cost" dominate fleet buyer research in this segment. Roadside assistance is included, and service plans can be bundled for cost control. Dealer support is strong across metro and regional areas.

Home AC charging at 11kW will refill the Tourer overnight in about 9 hours, while public DC chargers (up to 110kW) add 10–80% battery in about 45 minutes. “eVito charging”, “EV charger”, and "solar charging" are trending searches for EV van buyers. Most urban families and business shuttles use slow overnight charging for daily use, reserving DC fast charging for route duplication or long shifts. Extra cables and public network subscriptions (like Chargefox) come with new vehicles for initial support.

Early owner data shows the eVito's 90kWh battery holding strong, with limited failures after several years in commercial European fleets. Mercedes covers the battery for 8 years/160,000km, replacing modules if capacity drops below a set threshold. "Battery warranty", "replacement" and "range drop" are key owner concerns—most find the eVito’s pack meets rigorous professional use. Software updates and smart charging can further extend battery life. Service checks track battery health at every scheduled visit.

The eVito Tourer is not rated for heavy towing, with European and Australian specs showing no approved tow ratings for this electric van. “eVito anhängelast”, "towing capacity", and "trailer" are regular camper/utility searches. Light trailers or bikes may be acceptable, but check with your dealer on warranty risks. Payload and boot size make up for most hauling needs, but choose a diesel/petrol Vito for true towing.

Adding [solar panels](https://topproperty.eco/solar-power) and a [dedicated EV charger](https://topproperty.eco/solar-installers) is increasingly common for family and business buyers, letting most commutes or work trips run “off the sun”. Solar panels reduce running costs dramatically and make long-term fleet budgets easier to predict. Night/low-rate charging also suits city operators. Mercedes supports Chargefox for public use and offers advice via their EQ network for home upgrade options.

The eVito is quieter, cheaper to refuel, and creates zero tailpipe emissions (great for business tax, FBT, and city council contracts). “EV van vs diesel”, “eVito running cost”, and "energy use" trend for owner conversions. While off-the-mark pace is slower and payloads are lighter, the silent, torque-rich drive pleases most metro users. Service and brake pad bills drop due to regent braking and fewer moving parts over time. Full running cost parity is reached faster for high-mileage, city-based driving.

Yes—upfitters are already mounting beds, kitchens, and wheelchair ramps in eVito Tourers, with their flat floor and sliding seat rails ideal for custom builds. “eVito camper”, “disability conversion”, and "tourer upfit" are in-demand accessories segments. Factory warranty may depend on approved installation, so always check with Mercedes or specialist partners before major conversion.

Most owners report low running costs, smooth urban performance, and positive dealer support. Critiques are targeted at small or dated infotainment screens in some trims, halogen lighting, and ride firmness when empty. Recall and reliability issues have been minimal in both private and commercial use, with major support for battery and electric drives. Range drop under full load or in winter is a known factor—plan routes in advance.

Yes—demo and used eVito Tourers are available and may be offered with part-battery warranty and roadside assist. “EQV for sale”, “used eVito”, and “ex-demo” appear in value/conversion searches. Always check for up-to-date battery health reports, charge protocols, and dealer service stamps for peace of mind on a used electric van. Most dealerships assist with buying pre-owned, especially for business fleets.

Electric vehicles, including the eVito, may qualify for instant asset write-off, FBT cuts, or business depreciation under current Australian EV laws and fleet incentives. “eVito tax”, “FBT”, and “fleet finance” are growing commercial queries. Mercedes-Benz and specialist fleet dealers provide finance and advice on rebates and incentive steps. Always check the latest ATO or state government guidance.

Loads of tech and air bags, easy-walk sliding doors, rear aircon, split folding seats, and big boot space all suit city and school runs or business shuttles. Safety systems like AEB, crosswind assist, and blind-spot keep families or execs calmer on the road. Fleet operators value long service intervals and included roadside/charge support. The seven/“V-Class EQV” spec adds further interior options.

EQV’s real 240–318km range is similar to LDV Mifa 9 on test; Kia Carnival Hybrid, though not pure electric, goes much farther between stops but lacks plug-in ability. “EV van comparison”, "LDV vs EQV", and "EQV vs Carnival" are trending on Google. Mercedes wins on cabin tech and luxury, LDV for per-dollar range and value. The Carnival is better for long, country driving/mixed use.

Payload is limited to about 650–800kg depending on seating/config—less than diesel rivals, but still ample for families, airport shuttles, or school runs. Boot and cabin fit loads of prams or sports team kits with ease. "EQV payload", "van for family gear" and "payload limit" are frequent buyer research queries. Mercedes recommends regular servicing for safe load management in fleet use.

Yes—buyers can specify metallic or solid colours, multiple interior and trim/flooring setups, and special-order options. Night Pack, AMG styling, and exclusive paint are available at extra cost for private buyers. “EQV black”, "white", "AMG line", and "leather trim" are in-demand for families and business operators. Confirm colour choices as some are seasonal or dealer-limited.

Yes—the Mercedes Me Connect app tracks battery, range, and charge status, can pre-cool or pre-heat the cabin, and integrates with navigation and remote customer support in Australia. Charging, service, and breakdown help are offered on all new models, giving business buyers peace of mind. Regular OTA updates keep navigation and charge point data current for the lifetime of the van.
