Drive a Metris
Among Mercedes-Benz rental options on Turo, the Metris is the brand's midsize van. It's bigger than a minivan, smaller than a full-size van, and easy to park on city streets.
Book your Mercedes-Benz Metris van rental from a local vehicle owner on Turo. Pick it up, or choose delivery where it's offered, on a schedule that fits your plans.

Turbocharged pull with nine smooth gears
The Metris pairs a 2.0L turbo four-cylinder with a nine-speed automatic, giving you steady power for a van full of people and gear. That engine makes 208 hp and 258 lb-ft of torque, all sent to the rear wheels. Properly equipped, the Metris can tow up to 5,000 lbs — handy when the gear won't fit inside.
Legroom in every row
Every row in the Metris gets 35.8 inches of legroom, so nobody draws the short straw. The folks in the third row get the same stretch-out space as the driver, which keeps long group drives friendly.
The Metris came in five-, seven-, and eight-passenger layouts, so the seat count depends on the van you book. An eight-seat setup carries a full group to the wedding, the game, or the airport. A five-seat layout trades the third row for more room behind the second. Check the listing to confirm the layout before you book.
Cargo space that flexes with your plans
The Metris gives you 38 cubic feet of cargo space behind the third row and 97.3 cubic feet behind the second. That's room for suitcases with every seat filled, or a serious haul of gear when you need fewer seats.
Every seat behind the front row is removable, so the Metris can be a people mover one weekend and a gear hauler the next. Each local vehicle owner decides how their van is set up, so check the listing to see the seats and cargo space you'll get. Moving day, band practice, and a shoot with a full kit of equipment all fit the plan.
Stand out with a Metris
The Metris shines when you need to move people and their stuff in one trip. Use it for group trips, airport runs with a pile of luggage, wedding or event weekends, moving gear, and production shoots. Browse van rentals on Turo to find a Metris near you and compare it with other vans in your area.
Top Metris features
Sliding doors on both sides
Sliding doors on both sides let you load the Metris from either curb. Passengers can climb in from the sidewalk while you stash bags through the opposite door, so nobody has to circle the van in traffic. Dual power sliding doors were available, which means some Metris vans open and close at the press of a button.
That two-sided access pays off on busy days. Think crowded airport curbs, hotel drop-offs, and quick stops on a shoot day when the crew needs to get in and out fast. Check the listing to see whether your Metris has power doors or manual ones.
The Sprinter's smaller sibling
The Metris is the North American version of the European Mercedes-Benz Vito and V-Class vans. It's also the smaller sibling to the Sprinter, sized for city streets instead of job sites. At 202.4 inches long with a 36.4-foot turning diameter, it's built for narrow streets, tight turns, and everyday parking.
Choosing between the two vans comes down to your group and your gear. Pick the Metris when everyone fits in eight seats and you want a van that's easier to park. Step up to the Sprinter when you need more space for passengers or cargo.
A connected cabin
The Metris keeps your crew connected with a seven-inch touchscreen, Apple CarPlay, and Android Auto. Connect your phone, and your maps, playlists, and calls show up on the dash display.
That setup makes a real difference on airport runs and long group drives. The driver follows navigation on screen while the back rows lobby for the next song. Since your own apps come along for the ride, you don't have to learn an unfamiliar navigation system before you leave. Tech can vary by model year, so check the listing for the details on your Metris.

Top tips and things to know before renting a Metris
Get to know your Metris
The Metris's final US model year was 2023, so most Metris vans on Turo are 2016–2023 models. Layouts vary, so confirm the seat count in the listing before you book. Need more room? A Mercedes-Benz Sprinter rental gives you a bigger van. Prefer an SUV? A Mercedes-Benz G-Wagon rental keeps you in the Mercedes-Benz family.
Metris driving tips
The Metris is 202.4 inches long, so leave extra room when you park. It's rear-wheel drive, and Mercedes-Benz recommends premium fuel but doesn't require it. When the van is packed with gear, check your rear visibility and lean on your side mirrors before you pull out.
How much does it cost to rent a Metris?
Metris rental prices on Turo vary by location, dates, and vehicle, so check current listings for the latest rates. Local vehicle owners may offer discounts on longer trips. Planning to keep the van for a month or more? Look into a long-term car rental for extended stays.

* 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.
