Description
Powered for Performance - Engineered for Economy
The M-B Cruiser is powered by a Mercedes-Benz turbo charged 5-cylinder diesel engine that feels more like a V-8. But unlike a V-8, it offers fuel economy of approximately 22 miles per gallon in the city and up to 26 miles per galllon on the highway with a range of over 500 miles. With a body width about the same as a conventional van, the M-B Cruiser makes maneuverability and parking incredibly simple for a motorhome.
