The technical basis is the communication module (LTE) that is installed in all Sprinter variants, which forms the interface between fleet manager (web-based vehicle management tool) and driver (Mercedes Apps).
Björn Sack, head of connectivity and digital services, Mercedes-Benz Vans, said: “One of the particular advantages is the modular and scalable structure of the system. Fleet managers are able to choose precisely the connectivity services that make the working day of the drivers and themselves easier. Smaller and medium-size fleets also benefit from evaluations and analyses that were previously only affordable for large fleets with stand-alone solutions.”
