Last July, we revealed to you the Mercedes-Benz Marco Polo. The vehicle is basically the three-pointed star’s response to Volkswagen’s California camper van. However, Mercedes has upped the ante on this one by making it more luxurious and more comfortable than its rival.

Recently, at the Caravan Salon 2014 in Dusseldorf, Mercedes finally debuted the vehicle in not one, but two variants. The first was simply called the Marco Polo while the other carried the Marco Polo ACTIVITY moniker.

The first was based on the V-Class range while the ACTIVITY model was from the Vito range of the German luxury brand according to MB Passion Blog.

The Marco Polo is available in 200 CDI, 220 CDI and 250 BlueTEC models. The variants possess 136 hp, 163 hp, and 190 hp, respectively.
