Here are some pictures of the first mule for the next generation Mercedes Vito, which is probably being tested as a base for the new Viano as well. With that high bonnet and the massive grille, the pictured model appears to be quite aggressive in its shape - almost as it was some sort of AMG version - but it is quite likely that the design is just a temporary solution in order to fit a new engine and/or its cooling system in the mule’s body, perhaps with some testing equipment too.

The next Vito and Viano and Vito are expected to make their debut in 2013 or 2014, and there is also the chance that a Renault-badged version of the same model will also surface as the partnership between the two groups allows them to work together on both cars and transporters.
