Mercedes-Benz R Class specs
Model overview
The Mercedes-Benz R-Class is a large wagon/van vehicle launched by Mercedes-Benz in 2005 as the 2006 model year. Following the A and B-Class MPVs success, Mercedes introduced a concept automobile, at the 2002 Detroit Auto Show, afterward launching the production model in 2005 at the New York International Auto Show.
