It’s true, German automaker Mercedes-Benz is laying roots in the American South. The Mercedes plant is located in Ladson, South Carolina just north of North Charleston. The plant opened in 2018 and exclusively produces Sprinter vans for customers in the U.S. and Canada.
Mercedes spent $500 million building the South Carolina plant. It took four years to complete construction on the sprawling facility which spans roughly 200 acres.
The Mercedes-Benz Sprinter van is the best-selling large van worldwide. The U.S. is the Sprinter’s second-best customer behind China.
