This downsizing enables lower fuel consumption, accompanied by low emissions and optimum weight. The electric fuel pump controls the fuel supply for the Sprinter according to requirements—i.e. Charging takes place at all times via a two-stage exhaust-gas turbocharger system. with a variable delivery rate.
