Midwest Automotive Designs Patriot RVs For Sale
Midwest Automotive Designs Patriot luxury Class B Sprinter conversions for sale at Motor Home Specialist, the #1 Volume Selling Motor Home Dealer in the World and the #1 Midwest Automotive Designs RV dealer in the country.
The Patriot is Midwest Automotive Designs' flagship luxury Mercedes-Benz® Sprinter conversion, originally created in 2017 following the acquisition of Midwest Automotive Designs by REV Group, Inc., and designed to complement REV Group's American Coach Class A lineup. The Patriot has since returned to the Midwest Automotive Designs home brand and remains the cornerstone of the lineup. It targets buyers who want a fully featured camper conversion built on the Sprinter platform, with hand-crafted Midwest hydro-graphed wood cabinetry, a wet bath, induction galley, and the option to upgrade to the Freedom 1080 all-electric power package that eliminates onboard propane and the gas generator entirely. The Patriot was the first lithium-equipped Sprinter conversion on the market when Midwest introduced the original Freedom Package in 2016.
The Patriot is built on the Mercedes-Benz Sprinter chassis with the 2.0L Inline-4 turbo diesel rated at 208 horsepower and 332 lb-ft of torque, paired with the 9-speed automatic 9G-Tronic transmission. Both rear-wheel-drive and all-wheel-drive configurations are available. Three wheelbase options are offered: the 144-inch wheelbase (overall length 19 feet 6 inches on the FD2), the 170-inch standard wheelbase (overall length 22 feet 10 inches on the MD2 170 STD), and the 170-inch extended wheelbase (overall length 24 feet 2 inches on the MD2 170 EXT and MD4). Overall width is 96 inches, interior width is 68 inches, and interior height is 74 inches. Overall height varies by drivetrain: 9 feet 6 to 9 feet 7 inches on RWD, or 9 feet 11 inches on AWD. A 24.5-gallon diesel fuel tank handles range. The Mercedes-Benz factory warranty includes a 3-year/36,000-mile new vehicle limited warranty and a 5-year/100,000-mile drivetrain limited warranty. The Midwest Automotive Designs upfit carries a 3-year/36,000-mile limited warranty, with a 1-year warranty on upfitted appliances.
Chassis weight ratings vary by floor plan. The FD2 (144-inch) has a 9,050-pound GVWR, a 4,410-pound front axle rating, a 5,360-pound rear axle rating, and a 13,930-pound GCWR. The MD2 and MD4 (170-inch extended) have an 11,030-pound GVWR, a 4,410-pound front axle rating, a 7,720-pound rear axle rating, and a 15,250-pound GCWR. The hitch is rated at 5,000 pounds maximum towing capacity with a 500-pound nose weight rating across all four floor plans. Maximum roof load is 331 pounds.
Belted seating capacity reflects the floor plan: the FD2 and both MD2 variants each carry 5 belted passengers, while the MD4 carries 7 belted passengers. The MD4 adds rear captain's chairs with swivel and slide pedestals along with slide, swivel, and removable functionality for flexible seating configurations. The MD2 floor plans add a fold-down computer and writing table for the driver. All floor plans include driver and passenger deluxe seat covers with swivel pedestals, custom seating with seatbelts, and an interior entrance grab handle.
The Patriot is available in seven exterior color options: Obsidian Black, Arctic White, Iridium Silver, Tenorite Grey, Stone Grey, Blue Grey, and Pebble Grey. Custom paint is also available as an upgrade. Color-keyed bumpers and body moldings come standard.
The Patriot's signature interior feature is its Midwest hydro-graphed wood cabinetry throughout, paired with matching hydro-graphed front cabinet accent panels. This is the cabinet treatment that distinguishes the Patriot from its sister Heritage model (which uses laminated European curved upper cabinets) and identifies the coach as the original Midwest Automotive Designs camper conversion. Interior amenities include soft-touch automotive color-keyed walls and headliner, composite seamless flooring, coordinated door panels, driver cabin floor mats, sliding side and rear screen doors, a complete insulation package, a complete privacy shade package, and front window privacy night shades.
The bath is enclosed with dual-entry solid doors with portal windows and a shower curtain, and includes a solid-surface sink, a porcelain toilet, a power bath vent, and a retractable clothes line. The galley pairs solid-surface countertops with a deep stainless steel sink, a stainless steel microwave (or convection microwave on the MD2), a coordinated front-panel refrigerator (3.5 cubic feet on the FD2 and MD4, or 7.3 cubic feet on the MD2), a True Induction cooktop (single-burner 1,750-watt on the FD2, dual-burner 1,800-watt on the MD2 and MD4), the Lagun removable table, a power folding rear sofa bed, and under-sofa storage.
Climate control runs the Gree rooftop air conditioner, the Timberline 17,000 BTU diesel and 5,000 BTU 120V combo furnace, and the Timberline tankless diesel and 120V hot water heater. Power management includes the Onan QG 2500LP 2.5 kW propane generator, a 2,000-watt Xantrex sine wave inverter and charger, a 200-watt rooftop solar charging system, an L5-30 amp shoreline plug, an LP tank (10 gallons on the FD2 or 15 gallons on the MD2 and MD4), and a Shurflo 3 GPM water pump rated at 55 PSI and 12VDC. House battery configuration depends on floor plan: the FD2 uses a single 70Ah AGM battery, while the MD2 and MD4 use a single 330Ah 8D deep-cycle AGM battery.
The optional Freedom 1080 Package replaces the standard Onan generator, propane gas system, and AGM battery setup with a fully electric powertrain. It includes 1,080Ah of Dragonfly LiFePO4 lithium batteries (four 270Ah Game Changer 3.0 modules), a 3,000-watt Xantrex sine wave inverter and charger, a high-efficiency rooftop A/C, the Timberline diesel furnace and hot water heater, an under-hood high-output 280-amp secondary alternator, and 320 watts of solar power. The Freedom 1080 Package is the direct descendant of Midwest's pioneering 2016 Freedom Package, which was the first lithium-electric system in a Sprinter conversion to eliminate onboard propane.
Audio is handled by the Alpine sound system with an Alpine amp and subwoofer, an HDMI input to the main TV, multiple 120V outlets, multiple 12V USB chargers, a rear HDTV (or front HDTV on the MD4 floor plan), digital touchscreen coach controls, overhead courtesy lighting, and the climate-controlled roof fan. Safety equipment includes smoke, propane, and carbon monoxide detectors and a fire extinguisher.
The exterior includes tinted side and rear windows, rear slider screened windows, color-keyed bumpers and body moldings, a rear hitch with wiring package, a rear backup camera system, a power awning with LED light, an LED patio light, a 120V outlet, and an HD digital air TV antenna. The All-In-One Utility Bay includes a cable TV input, a fresh water fill, an exterior shower, and a macerator pump with power gates and hose reel. Holding tank capacities depend on floor plan: the FD2 uses a 19-gallon fresh, 22-gallon gray, and 14-gallon black tank; the MD2 and MD4 step up to a 27-gallon fresh, 24-gallon gray, and 14-gallon black tank. Heating pads on the fresh and gray tanks and a Sani Flush on the black and gray tanks are standard.
At MHSRV, the Patriot is offered in four floor plans: the MD2 170 STD, the MD2 170 EXT, the MD4 (170 EXT), and the FD2 144. The FD2 144 is the most compact at 19 feet 6 inches with a 68-by-74-inch bed and 5-passenger belted capacity. The MD2 170 STD is the 170-inch standard wheelbase configuration at 22 feet 10 inches. The MD2 170 EXT extends to 24 feet 2 inches with a 68-by-80-inch bed and adds a fold-down driver writing table. The MD4 (170 EXT) is also 24 feet 2 inches but steps belted capacity up to 7 passengers with the rear captain's chair configuration.

What chassis is the Patriot built on?

The Patriot and Heritage share the same Mercedes-Benz Sprinter chassis, drivetrain, FD2/MD2/MD4 floor plans, exterior painted cladding, Gree A/C, macerator pump, and standard appliance package. The defining difference is the cabinetry: the Patriot uses Midwest's signature hydro-graphed wood cabinetry throughout with matching hydro-graphed front cabinet accent panels (the original Midwest Automotive Designs aesthetic).

Always confirm tow vehicle weight against the coach's actual GCWR before towing.
