When Mercedes-Benz brings its next-generation van to America, it’ll reportedly put on the V-Class identify. Unnamed Mercedes officers confirmed to WardsAuto that the mannequin would drop the EQV nomenclature when it goes on sale in 2026.

Mercedes detailed its van plans in May 2023, saying the VAN.EA structure that’ll underpin new mid-size luxurious vans within the US and elsewhere. According to this newest report, Mercedes will supply the van with single- and dual-motor setups in rear- and all-wheel drive configurations and two battery capacities.

Mercedes declined to touch upon WardAuto’s report when reached by Motor1, telling us it can’t focus on future product plans.
