When it comes to luxury travel vans, few models live up to the hype like the 2025 Midwest Automotive Designs Luxe Cruiser. Built on the trusted Mercedes Sprinter chassis, the Luxe Cruiser is a masterclass in premium design, cutting-edge technology, and first-class comfort — setting a new benchmark for what a luxury van should be.

First Impressions

From the moment you step inside, the Luxe Cruiser feels less like a van and more like a private jet on wheels. The handcrafted woodwork, diamond-stitched captain’s chairs, and elegant lighted ceiling panels immediately set the tone. Every inch of the interior feels intentional and upscale, offering a level of refinement you usually only find in high-end yachts or executive limousines. Color options like Graphite with Black Denali or Sand with Walnut Denali let buyers tailor the space to their personal style without sacrificing sophistication.

Comfort and Features

Midwest clearly had comfort at the forefront when designing the Luxe Cruiser. Heated and massaging captain’s chairs, dual HDTVs with Apple TV integration, a wireless internet router, and a top-notch Alpine sound system come standard. The Firefly touchscreen control system ties everything together seamlessly, allowing passengers to adjust lighting, climate, and entertainment with just a tap.

The rear bath setup, complete with a porcelain toilet, sink, microwave, and refrigerator, makes this van not just a means of transportation — but a true mobile suite. For those looking to travel off the grid, the optional Freedom 600 Package adds lithium batteries, solar panels, and a diesel furnace, enhancing the Cruiser’s versatility even further.


Driving Experience

Despite its luxurious accommodations, the Luxe Cruiser doesn’t compromise on driving performance. Powered by a 2.0L high-output diesel engine paired with a 9-speed automatic transmission, it offers smooth, confident power delivery. The standard all-wheel-drive system ensures stability and control across a variety of terrains, while features like a backup camera and optional 4-camera system make maneuvering this large van surprisingly stress-free.

The available air ride suspension package is a must for anyone planning long trips — it transforms even rougher roads into a smooth glide, making hours on the highway genuinely enjoyable.

Real-World Ownership

Owners rave about the Luxe Cruiser’s quality, comfort, and overall design. Many highlight its ability to serve both business and leisure needs without compromise.

Value for the Money

Starting around $188,000 and stretching past $230,000 with full options, the Luxe Cruiser certainly commands a premium price tag. That said, it justifies every dollar with its craftsmanship, functionality, and exclusivity. For buyers serious about luxury travel without sacrificing mobility, it’s hard to find a better choice in the market.
