The Mercedes-Benz Vario (model designation W670) is a heavy van manufactured by Mercedes-Benz. Originally launched as the T2 (Transporter 2) in 1986, the Vario gained its current name when it was facelifted in 1996. The T2 van itself succeeded the Mercedes-Benz L van series.
The bodyshell remained relatively unchanged since production started. The Vario has proved a popular base chassis for minibuses and mini-coaches, although the demand for minibuses has declined with new regulations requiring disabled access, although a model with a wheelchair lift is now available.
The Vario is fitted with a type OM904 internal combustion engine (shared with the Mercedes-Benz Atego).
