Brabus has come up with a special iBusiness treatment – which used to exclusive to the S Class – for the Mercedes Viano van. This is by all means the ultimate van in the whole world!
Well, it looks like a hearse from the outside, but the interior beats all limousines in terms comfort,luxury and stuff to keep you amused. I mean short of adding a jacuzzi in there you cannot improve on it. They’ve created a mobile multimedia 3D cinema. That’s right, this must be the first car in the world to features a 3D display.
The lounge-like interior features a 40-inch Sony Bravia LED3D TV that’s hooked up to a digital TV receiver and a Playstation 3. Yes, there’s a couple of iPads around just because they’re fashionable! This car also offers lots of connectivity option with WiFi, UMTS and HSDPA so you are always connected on the road. The Viano iBusiness a geek’s wet dream!
You do also get Maybach-style reclining leather seats as well as full length curtains and all the dials and knobs you need to control the air con and stuff. There’s also a mini bar and a fridge.
This is probably the best car for transporting movie stars to and from the set. It is more convenient and a damn sight better equipped than those large RVs. Mind you, you celeb might run late since the Viano is powered by a CDI V6 ECO PowerXtra diesel engine that makes 318 HP (234 kW) and 410 Nm (302 lb-ft) of torque. That’s not even enough to carry that big TV around!
You could solve that problem by ordering the car with the 426 HP (313 kW) and 621 Nm (458 lb-ft) of torque V8 engine.
The only problem we see with this car is that people who lie to have this level of luxury in their life, also like to show it off a bit. And a blacked-out van isn’t really what you call classy! Those people prefer the Roller Phantom or the Maybach. The only person we can think of who would like this Viano is Guy Ritchie who’s already got a kitted out van.
