Dodge Sprinter Unmasked - as well as a new Germanic Doppleganger...

New Sprinter Side Profile

Here's proof that VW and DCX aren't just co-operating on minivans, but on maxi-vans, as well...

New Sprinter Rear View

I ran into two next-generation Dodge Sprinters being transported around CTC this afternoon,
and luckily for me, they were completely in the buff.



The front fascia is very much the bizzare melding of Mercedes and Dodge cues, as was that of it's predecessor. But this contrasts sharply from the images that Motor Trend published as a Sprinter undergoing testing in the Southwest.



While that van appears to share much of it's design aft of the B-pillar with the Sprinter, it interestingly shares much more design cues up front with VW's Crafter Atacama concept, now showing at a Paris Auto Show far from you.

Great looking van. Too bad they still haven't figured out a small european diesel isn't going to work for a full size van in the United States.
