On 6 July – around seven weeks before the start of the 2017/2018 Bundesliga season and right in time for the departure to the training camp – Rüdiger Kappel, Head of Sales Mercedes-Benz Bus and Coach unit Germany, handed over the highly equipped Mercedes-Benz Travego L to VfB Stuttgart in front of the Mercedes-Benz Museum in Stuttgart. "With the new Travego L our long-standing partner will also be promoted to a higher division in terms of ride comfort," says Rüdiger Kappel. "The vehicle, specially designed for VfB Stuttgart, scores with many extras."
