Contract Hire News –Mercedes-Benz Viano makes history
The versatility and affordability of the Mercedes-Benz Viano has ensured that the MPV is a popular choice amongst City Vehicle Leasing clients seeking luxury transport that meets family, leisure and business requirements.
Now this most versatile of vehicles has made history in China, where it has become the first model to roll off the production line at an impressive new plant in Fuzhou province. The 128,000 square-metre facility is operated by Fujian Daimler Automotive (FJDA) – a joint venture between Fujian Motors Group (FJMG), China Motor Corporation (CMC) and Daimler AG.
The premium MPV/transporter market is booming in China, where the sector grew by 32 per cent last year as motorists drove away 384,000 vehicles from the nation’s dealerships. The FJDA factory, which will build Mercedes-Benz Vito and Sprinter vans as well as Viano, will target this demand with a production capacity of 40,000 vehicles per annum.
Capable of seating up to eight people or lugging 4,610 litres of cargo, it is the Viano’s formidable flexibility that appeals to drivers worldwide. Its innovative floor rail seating system offers a plethora of permutations – the single passenger seatbacks flipped flat to make a table for example, or the foldable seats moved forward for extra storage space or passenger legroom.
City Vehicle Leasing’s attractive contract hire deals offer huge choice to business and private motorists too. All three vehicle length versions of the Viano are currently stocked by the discount contract hire specialists, so please contact them today on 0844 375 3263 for a personalised quotation.
