Which of the following most accurately describes the problem?

We thought this old-timer might have been retired with the Euro-4 emissions deadline last year, but it keeps soldiering on, and M-B is selling enough to keep it in production.

Practicality is the order of the day with a Varlo if you're looking for a panel van with the payload of a truck, you could do worse than adding a Vario to your shopping list.

Up front, you get a solid cab that might lack the good looks of its contemporaries, but its nonetheless practical.

Power has also been revised. The Euro-4 four-cylinder 4.25-litre unit incorporates SCR technology and produces 136hp, with torque rated at 520Nm. But with GVWs ranging from 5.99 to 7,49 tonnes, there's little in the way of immediate oomph to get it moving. Instead, guide the big van through its paces and things will remain unruffled. And with plenty of payload potential, the Vario makes of practical sense.
