Mercedes is preparing its most lavish minivan yet: the VLS, slated for 2027. This all-electric flagship aims to sit at the very top of the brand’s comfort hierarchy, approaching Maybach levels of indulgence. Early prototypes are already undergoing tests, and the photos point to a refined silhouette with a bold grille and distinctive 22-inch “dish” wheels, the kind usually reserved for the marque’s upper echelon.Inside, the VLS will be available with four- or five-seat layouts. Individual rear chairs are set to offer heating, ventilation, massage, and a wide range of electric adjustments. Between them is a central armrest with a touch panel for climate control and interior lighting. The suspension will be air-based with adaptive dampers, promising the kind of serene ride usually associated with executive sedans—precisely the quality buyers in this class expect.From a technical standpoint, the model builds on the forthcoming VLE. Base versions of the range are due to receive a 272-hp electric motor, while the VLS itself will rely solely on a dual-motor setup with more than 480 hp. Top speed is projected to hover around 190 km/h, with curb weight approaching 2.5 tonnes—figures that suggest effortless cruising rather than outright sprinting.The Mercedes VLS will debut in 2027, with production planned for Spain. It is shaping up to be the most opulent electric MPV on the market and a fresh benchmark for 21st-century automotive comfort.
