Mercedes Sprinter 4×4 SAMU Ambulance |

The 2025 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 4×4 SAMU Ambulance is engineered to redefine excellence in emergency medical response. Designed as a critical care transport unit for SAMU (Service d’Aide Médicale Urgente) and advanced life support teams, this vehicle combines the legendary reliability of a Mercedes 4×4 chassis with a state-of-the-art medical interior. Built to the highest European specifications, it ensures unparalleled performance, safety, and functionality in the most demanding conditions, from urban emergencies to remote, off-road rescue missions.

This ambulance is powered by a robust 2.0L diesel engine, delivering 211 HP and complying with stringent Euro VI emission standards. Its core strength lies in the permanent 4×4 all-wheel-drive system and a sophisticated 9-speed automatic transmission, providing superior traction, control, and smooth operation while eliminating driver fatigue and potential clutch-related failures. The reinforced suspension and all-season tires are specifically designed for stability and safety during high-priority transfers.

The medical module is a self-contained advanced life support unit. It features a 12V electropneumatic stretcher table with a remarkable 500 kg loading capacity and a high-quality electric stretcher capable of Trendelenburg and reverse Trendelenburg positions for critical patient management. The oxygen therapy system is comprehensive, with provisions for multiple oxygen cylinders (2x10L + 2x2L), 7 oxygen outlets, and both Venturi and electric suction systems.

Safety is paramount. The vehicle is equipped with a complete SAMU personnel security system, including LED warning lights, sirens, and three-point safety belts on all three rotating and foldable medical seats. The independent electrical system, powered by a 95Ah AGM battery with an automatic separator, ensures all medical equipment, the stationary climate control system (8,600 frigories/10KW), and interior lighting remain operational even with the engine off and the vehicle locked.

Finished in a highly visible white livery, this Mercedes Sprinter 4×4 Ambulance is the ultimate tool for saving lives, offering a perfect blend of automotive excellence and medical innovation.
