Developed jointly by Mercedes-Benz UK and Pioneer GB the special edition Project-X Vito is powered by a 3.0-litre V6 turbodiesel capable of producing 224hp and developing 440Nm of peak torque. Additional Brabus parts include 20in alloy wheels, sports exhaust, lowering springs, chrome sidebars, sports steering wheel and chrome grille and tailgate trim.

“Project-X not only sounds awesome, but it looks amazing too,” said Steve Bridge, van sales and marketing director for Mercedes-Benz UK. “The sheer power from this van, both from the engine and the sound system, is epic and needs to be seen to be believed. The machine is simply amazing. We’re keen to get the vehicle out and about to showcase what it can do in front of a live audience and look forward to seeing the public’s reaction to such a breath-taking machine.”
