Drive a Sprinter
The Freightliner Sprinter is an upright, Mercedes-engineered van with up to 75.5 inches of standing height and seats for up to 15 in passenger versions. When you need van rental on Turo that fits a team, a band, or a full move, it belongs at the top of your list.
On Turo, you book your Sprinter from a local vehicle owner and arrange pickup and drop-off that fit your plans. Look for 2019–2021 models — the final years Freightliner badged the Sprinter in the US.

Diesel torque that hauls with ease
The Sprinter's 3.0L V6 turbo diesel makes 188 hp and 325 lb-ft of torque — the kind of pull you'll appreciate once the van's loaded. Some vans use the available 2.0L turbo four-cylinder gas engine instead, rated at 188 hp and 258 lb-ft. Select configurations tow up to 7,500 lbs, so check the listing for engine and towing details before you hitch up.
Stand-up space in every direction
High-roof Sprinters offer up to 75.5 inches of standing height, which gives many guests room to stand upright inside. That matters when you're stacking boxes, staging gear, or getting a full group settled (no hunching over required).
The Sprinter comes in two wheelbases — 144 inches and 170 inches — and two roof heights. The shorter van is easier to tuck into tight spots, while the longer one stretches your cargo space. Cargo versions offer up to 532.6 cubic feet depending on wheelbase and roof, with smaller setups starting around 319 cubic feet. Check the listing for wheelbase and roof height so you know exactly how much room you're getting.
Driver assists that steady the ride
Every 2019–2021 Sprinter comes with Crosswind Assist and Active Brake Assist as standard equipment. That's welcome backup in a tall, long van, especially on open highways and in stop-and-go traffic.
Some vans add optional tech on top of that. Look for Active Distance Assist, Blind Spot Assist, and a 360-degree camera — the camera alone can turn a tight parking job into a non-event. Since options vary from van to van, check the listing to see which assists your Sprinter has before you book. If a feature's a must-have for your trip, read each description closely and pick a van that lists it.
Stand out with a Sprinter
A Sprinter fits trips that outgrow a minivan — group getaways, band travel, moving day, event gear, and business hauling. Body styles include cargo, crew, passenger, and cab chassis, so you can match the van to the job. If hauling's your priority, browse cargo van rentals nationwide.
Top Sprinter features
A badge with a story
Freightliner no longer sells the Sprinter. US distribution of the Freightliner Sprinter ended after the 2021 model year, and the van is now sold exclusively as a Mercedes-Benz.
That makes a Freightliner-badged Sprinter a now-rare nameplate on a familiar van. The Sprinter has been around since its introduction in 1995. The 2019–2021 Freightliner version shares its design with the Mercedes-Benz version — same van, different badge. You get the engineering you'd expect from a modern Sprinter, plus a grille badge you won't find on any new one. Consider it a conversation starter at the venue loading dock.
MBUX infotainment
The 2019 Sprinter marked the debut of MBUX infotainment, and Freightliner-badged vans got it too. That puts a modern infotainment system in a work-ready van.
MBUX is optional, though, so not every Sprinter has it. If a modern screen matters for your trip — say, a long drive with a full van — check the listing before you book. A quick look at the dashboard photos and description confirms what's inside, so you'll know what to expect before you turn the key.
Built in your shape
The Sprinter came in four body styles: cargo, crew, passenger, and cab chassis. Passenger versions seat up to 15, while the other styles trade seats for hauling room.
Rear-wheel drive is standard across the lineup. Select vans offer optional 4x4, paired with the V6 diesel — so if you want it, confirm it in the listing rather than assuming. The same goes for seating and engine choice, since two Sprinters from the same year can look alike and drive differently. A quick read of the listing helps you land the exact van your plans call for.

Top tips and things to know before renting a Sprinter
Get to know your Sprinter
The Freightliner Sprinter is the same van as a Mercedes-Benz Sprinter rental — same design, different badge. If you're cross-shopping large vans, compare it with a Ford Transit rental. You can also explore Mercedes-Benz rentals on Turo for more from the brand.
Before you book, check the listing for engine, seat count, and wheelbase. Those three details shape how the van drives, how many people it carries, and how much fits behind them.
Sprinter driving tips
A Sprinter is a big van, so give yourself a few minutes to get comfortable before you set off.
Check posted clearance at parking garages and drive-thrus, especially in a high-roof van.
Swing wide on turns, particularly in the 170-inch wheelbase version.
Use the mirrors and, if equipped, the 360-degree camera and Blind Spot Assist when parking or changing lanes.
Load heavy items low and secure them before you drive.
How much does it cost to rent a Sprinter?
Sprinter prices on Turo vary by listing, and local vehicle owners set their own rates. Year, configuration, location, and trip dates all affect what you'll pay.
Longer trips can cost less per day, with trip duration discounts for three days, one week, two weeks, three weeks, and monthly bookings. Need the van for a while? Explore long-term car rental for trips over 30 days.

* Any personal insurance you may have that covers damage to the host’s vehicle would kick in before your protection plan, except in limited situations for trips booked in Maryland, but this protects your own wallet. In the US, liability insurance is provided under a policy issued to Turo by Travelers Excess and Surplus Lines Company. Terms, conditions, and exclusions apply. The policy does not provide coverage for damage to a host’s vehicle.
For questions or information about the third party liability insurance for trips in the US, consumers in Maryland and the licensed states listed here may contact Turo Insurance Agency at (415) 508-0283 or claims@turo.agency. For questions about how damage to a host’s vehicle is handled, visit the Turo Support site. When a trip is booked in the state of Washington, physical damage to the host’s vehicle is covered by insurance purchased by Turo, but the Turo insurance does not change the contractual responsibilities of hosts or guests with respect to physical damage to a host’s vehicle.
