Which automaker manufactures the Sprinter van used by many delivery services?

The automaker that manufactures the Sprinter van used by many delivery services is Mercedes-Benz.

The Sprinter is a large light-commercial vehicle introduced in 1995 as a successor to Mercedes-Benz’s T1 van. It is sold in numerous configurations, including cargo vans, passenger vans, chassis cabs, minibuses, and pickups. That flexibility has made it popular with couriers, contractors, shuttle operators, and emergency services.

The name can be confusing because Sprinters have also been sold under Dodge and Freightliner badges. In North America, Daimler marketed earlier versions as the Freightliner Sprinter and Dodge Sprinter, particularly when it wanted to use established commercial-vehicle brands. Those vehicles were still based on Mercedes-Benz engineering and production.

Manufacturing has taken place at several facilities, including Mercedes-Benz plants in Germany and the company’s South Carolina operation. The Sprinter is also related to the Volkswagen LT and earlier Volkswagen Crafter through past badge-engineering agreements, but those associations do not change the answer: the Sprinter is a Mercedes-Benz model.
