The current Dodge Sprinter is 232.7″ long, 79.5″ wide, on a 144.5″ wheelbase, weighing 5,461 lb. Since 2003 it has grown 5% in length and gained 0% in weight. At 19.4 feet it does not fit a standard garage and overhangs a street parking space.
Every Dodge Sprinter generation, measured
One row per generation. Watch the weight column — that is where most of the change happens, and it is the number that decides fuel use, tyre wear and how far the car takes to stop.
| Generation | Length | Width | Height | Wheelbase | Curb weight |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2003–2006 | 221.7″ | 76″ | 97.6″ | 140.2″ | — |
| 2007 | 224.4″ | 76.4″ | 98.8″ | 170.5″ | 4,870 lb |
| 2008–2009 | 232.7″ | 79.5″ | 96.5″ | 144.5″ | 5,461 lb |
From 2003 to today the Sprinter gained 11″ of length (5%) and 0 lb of weight (0%). A modern compact often outweighs the mid-size car of a generation before.
Sprinter year by year
Measured every model year, not just at generation changes — 7 years on record. Small moves inside a generation are facelifts; the jumps are new platforms.
| Model year | Length | Width | Wheelbase | Curb weight | Body styles |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2009 | 232.7″ | 79.5″ | 144.5″ | 3 | |
| 2008 | 232.7″ | 79.5″ | 144.5″ | 3 | |
| 2007 | 212.6″ | 76.8″ | 160.2″ | 10 | |
| 2006 | 209.8″ | 76.4″ | 131.5″ | 10 | |
| 2005 | 209.8″ | 76.4″ | 131.5″ | 10 | |
| 2004 | 209.8″ | 76.4″ | 131.5″ | 10 | |
| 2003 | 209.8″ | 76.4″ | 131.5″ | 10 |
Will a Sprinter fit
The practical question behind every dimensions search. A single-car garage in the US is typically 20 feet deep; a street parking space is about 18. We allow a foot of clearance in both — nobody parks to the millimetre.
| Space | Typical size | This car | Verdict |
|---|---|---|---|
| Single garage | 20 ft deep | 19.4 ft | Too long — door will not close |
| Street parking space | 18 ft | 19.4 ft | Overhangs — expect a tight squeeze |
| Standard parking bay width | 8.5 ft wide | 6.6 ft | Room to open doors both sides |
Against cars of the same length
Compared with 98 vehicles within ten inches of the same length — a fair proxy for «cars of this size», regardless of what the marketing calls them.
| Measure | This car | Typical car of this length | Difference |
|---|---|---|---|
| Width | 79.5″ | 79.9″ | -0.4″ |
| Wheelbase | 144.5″ | 139″ | +5.5″ |
| Curb weight | 5,461 lb | 5,415 lb | 46 lb |
A longer wheelbase for the same overall length means shorter overhangs — usually more cabin space and a steadier ride. Lighter than typical for its size generally means better fuel economy and shorter stopping distances.

How we measure
Dimensions come from NHTSA vPIC and Transport Canada vehicle records — manufacturer-declared figures, held in metric and converted to inches and pounds for display.
One row per generation, not per model year: manufacturers rarely change the body between facelifts, and a table of forty near-identical rows helps nobody. Where a generation offered several body styles, the figures are the base measurements for that generation.
