BUILT BY PEACE VANS
Mercedes Metris POP-top CAMPER VANS
The Mercedes Metris: A Small-Footprint Pop-TOp Camper Van.
January 1, 2025:
As you hopefully know, in late 2023, Mercedes announced the end of US production for the Metris. While still being produced in Europe (and exported WW), the last US based Metris rolled off the production line in mid 2024. Peace Vans was lucky enough to obtain about 100 of the last Metris vans to build into campers and sell those. Sadly, for the small van loving public, those vans are sold out.
What to do you if you still want one of these unique and awesome vans? There’s a few things - all hope is not lost:
1) While Peace Vans supply of new vans is sold out, there are a few new vans (model year 2023) floating out there in various pockets of the US. If you are passionate about getting one of these vans, reach out to us and we can help track one of these vehicles down for you. We will be carrying enough inventory to build a few vans.
2) Obtain a used van on the open market and bring it to us to convert. While there’s not a lot of used vans out there, they do exist! Here’s a link to AutoTrader as an example. Generally speaking, we can work on any Metris - some are better than others and we can help you find the best.
3) Keep an eye on our “used vans” web page, or - better yet - fill out the form here and be on the list for proactive communications as we acquire used vans or sell off our rental fleet.
For Weekenders, we will be acquiring a few used vans during H1 of 2025 and using some Weekender inventory to build those out. To get on the list for those sign up for the used van list.
The end of the Metris is definitely bittersweet for us at Peace Vans. We were the first to pursue this market and we built it with a passion. We ended up being responsible for close to 1,000 of these little campers hitting the road and it has been one of the most rewarding projects in our professional careers. From each of us at Peace Vans to all of you - thank you!! And for you who missed on getting one of these awesome vans, be patient! We might still be able to help you.
Full Camper
The Peace Vans Full Camper conversion is a Metris Passenger Van that seats five, sleeps four, and fits in a standard parking space. With kitchen amenities and lots of storage, this van is ready to camp for a weekend, road trip for a month, or simply take you around town as a daily driver.
Weekender
The Peace Vans Weekender conversion starts as a Metris passenger van and ends as a compact-yet-comfortable ride that converts to a dreamy camp mobile with enough room to sleep four and comfortably seat 5. This Peace Vans conversion has plenty of storage space, making it the perfect camper van to hit the open road.
Pop-Top
Want to roll your own small camper conversion on the inside but have our team do the pop top and a few difficult-to-DIY upgrades? If you’re looking for a more affordable option, want to do your own conversion, or need to keep the standard Metris passenger seating, this may be your perfect option.
