Vito: The safety concept

The Mercedes Vito has a safety concept that makes it stand out from the crowd. It has shown that even in the Van market, it can put the needs of its users first. Adaptive ESP comes as standard with all Mercedes Vito Vans. Adaptive ESP is the latest generation of ESP technology and now factors in the load in the vehicle when enhancing the vehicles stability. Adaptive ESP along with the Vito's many other active safety features combine with the vans passive safety systems to provide outstanding levels of protection for its occupants. For users that tow frequently, there is an optional trailer stability system that automatically applies the brakes in a fashion to stabilise a trailer that is starting to swing.

The Vito - A "Safetyplus Vehicle"

DEKRA and TUV, two independant testing organisations have awarded the Mercedes Vito the "Safetyplus Vehicle" certificate. This certificate is awarded to vehicles that set an example by passing a series of standard tests and have exemplary passive and active safety features. To qualify the Vito met specific standards including being fitted with disc brakes, ABS, ESP and load securing rings.
