Meet The Sentinel, a 2025 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 144 AWD camper van meticulously designed and upfitted by Papago Vans in collaboration with Mercedes-Benz of North Scottsdale. Now available for purchase and on display in the North Scottsdale showroom, this van brings together showroom-level refinement with true off-grid capability. It’s equipped with a 400Ah Battle Born lithium battery system, 200W solar, and a 3000W AIMS pure sine inverter charger—all managed via smart Bluetooth-enabled Victron components for seamless control and reliability wherever your journey leads.
Inside, The Sentinel offers a refined and modern interior that doesn’t sacrifice functionality. From its acoustic wood slat ceiling and shiplap-style walls to the easy-clean Baltic birch laminated cabinetry and LVP wood-style flooring, every material was chosen for both durability and style. A tiled indoor shower with a self-cleaning retractable door, Bosch electric water heater, and waterless Laveo toilet bring luxury home amenities to the road. The full kitchen includes a stainless undermount sink, portable induction cooktop, built-in microwave, and Isotherm Cruise 65 fridge—efficiently compact yet road-ready.
Climate is controlled year-round with Havelock wool insulation, a diesel-powered Espar heater with high-altitude adjustment, a Maxxair ceiling fan, and a Nomadic X2 12V rooftop A/C. Sleeping is enhanced with a queen-size memory foam mattress and Vanspeed capsules that extend the bed area, allowing more space without increasing vehicle length. Rotating front seats, a Lagun table, and a large storage bench create a spacious, multifunctional lounge area perfect for work, meals or downtime.
Designed for both exploration and presence, The Sentinel rides on a Van Compass Stage 4.3 suspension system with mini-leaf pack and all-terrain tires. Exterior features include a full suite of Owl Vans upgrades: roof rack, ladder + tire carrier, side steps, hitch step, storage box, and a Pismo bumper with a Warn 12S winch. Add in Morimoto pod lights, an electric awning with integrated LED, and a full window package with built-in bug screens, and this van is as capable on rugged terrain as it is impressive in any setting.
