Marco Polo: one family – but with several unique characters
Independence and everyday practicality are firmly embedded in the DNA of the entire Marco Polo product family: equipped with a kitchenette, wardrobe, swivelling front seats, a bench seat with bed extension and roof bed, the standard version of the Marco Polo based on the V-Class offers space for four people. The Marco Polo is the ideal vehicle for individualists and savourers who like to use their camper van for longer trips whilst looking to retain as much independence as possible and enjoy familiar living comfort. They also appreciate everyday practicality and attach importance to style.
The Marco Polo ACTIVITY compact recreational vehicle based on the Vito Tourer is foremost functional and flexible. Featuring an exceptionally variable interior and comfortable sleeping options for up to five people, it is aimed at young families as well as sports enthusiasts and outdoor fans seeking the spontaneous adventure.
The new Marco Polo HORIZON combines attributes of the Marco Polo and Marco Polo ACTIVITY, making it an ideal addition to the portfolio to attract new target groups.
The new Marco Polo HORIZON combines stylish design with maximum functionality
Attend a business meeting in the morning, pick up the kids and their classmates from school in the afternoon, then a climbing weekend with friends: the multiple seating configurations possible in the Marco Polo HORIZON reflect its exceptional versatility. These range from the standard five-seater with three-seater bench/berth and two swivelling front seats to four single comfort seats in the rear to the seven-seater with three-seater bench/berth in the second rear row and two additional single seats in the first rear row. Seats can also be removed if more space is required to transport sports and leisure equipment – transforming the everyday van into a recreational vehicle. Overnight comfort is also assured. The comfortable roof bed for two people measures 2.05 m x 1.13 m. Depending on the seating configuration, the bench seat/berth in the rear can be turned into a bed measuring 1.93 m x 1.35 m for up to three people. Two drawers underneath the bench seat/berth provide stowage space. Furthermore, it is possible to darken the interior using curtains for a good night's sleep.
The Marco Polo HORIZON can be stylishly individualised with an array of high-quality materials. Be it wood-look, piano lacquer-look or wave-look trim – the design of the cockpit based on the V-Class lends the recreational vehicle that certain something. Featuring a wide choice of further optional extras, such as the Interior Design package with Lugano leather or the AMG Line, the Marco Polo HORIZON can be tailored to meet every taste.
The Mercedes me connect services will also be available for the Marco Polo HORIZON. Customers will be able to easily connect with their vehicle via smartphone, tablet or PC. The Mercedes me connect Standard Services, which come free of charge, include the Mercedes-Benz Emergency Call System, Accident Recovery, Maintenance Management and Breakdown Management, as well as Telediagnostics and Remote Vehicle Diagnostics. Further options available include real-time Live Traffic Information and numerous Remote Online Services such as control of the optional hot-water auxiliary heating. With these the Marco Polo HORIZON offers the convenience of state-of-the-art connectivity.
The Marco Polo HORIZON can be ordered with all the familiar V-Class diesel engines, with outputs ranging from 100 kW to 120 kW to 140 kW. As an alternative to rear-wheel drive, 4MATIC all-wheel drive is also on offer – both in conjunction with the 7G-TRONIC PLUS seven-speed automatic transmission (combined fuel consumption: 6.8 - 6.0 l/100 km; combined CO2 emissions: 179 - 158 g/km).
