Why the Patriot Is the Cornerstone
The Patriot has been Midwest's flagship since 2017, when Midwest was acquired by REV Group to complement REV's American Coach Class A lineup. It has since returned to the Midwest home brand and remains the cornerstone of the Midwest Automotive Designs product family. Buyers land on the Patriot for the hand-crafted Midwest hydro-graphed wood cabinetry, the wet bath, the True Induction galley, the power folding rear sofa bed, and the optional Freedom 1080 all-electric power upgrade. The Patriot was the first lithium-equipped Sprinter conversion on the market when Midwest introduced the original Freedom Package in 2016, and the Freedom 1080 is the direct descendant of that pioneering system. Cross-shoppers typically compare the Patriot against the Midwest Heritage (same platform, contemporary European cabinetry) or the Midwest Patriot Cruiser (day-cruiser variant on the same chassis, aimed at business travel rather than camping).
Chassis and Powertrain
The Patriot rides on the Mercedes-Benz Sprinter chassis with the 2.0L Inline-4 turbo diesel at 208 horsepower and 332 lb-ft of torque, paired with the 9-speed 9G-Tronic automatic transmission. Buyers can order rear-wheel-drive or all-wheel-drive. Three wheelbase options are offered: the 144-inch (19 feet 6 inches on the FD2), the 170-inch standard (22 feet 10 inches on the MD2 170 STD), and the 170-inch extended (24 feet 2 inches on the MD2 170 EXT and MD4). Overall width is 96 inches. Interior width is 68 inches, interior height 74 inches. Overall height runs 9 feet 6 to 9 feet 7 inches on RWD, 9 feet 11 inches on AWD. Fuel is a 24.5-gallon diesel tank.
Weight Ratings and Towing
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. Every Patriot carries a 5,000-pound maximum trailer hitch with a 500-pound nose weight rating. Maximum roof load is 331 pounds.
Warranty
Mercedes-Benz backs the chassis with a 3-year/36,000-mile new vehicle warranty and a 5-year/100,000-mile drivetrain limited warranty. Midwest Automotive Designs covers the upfit with a 3-year/36,000-mile limited warranty. Upfitted appliances carry a 1-year warranty.
Seating and Cockpit
Belted seating capacity depends on floor plan. The FD2 and both MD2 variants carry 5 belted passengers each. The MD4 steps up to 7 belted passengers with rear captain's chairs on swivel and slide pedestals (slide, swivel, and removable). Both MD2 floor plans add a fold-down driver writing table. Every Patriot comes with deluxe covered driver and passenger seats on swivel pedestals plus an interior entrance grab handle.
Exterior and Colors
Seven exterior colors are offered: Obsidian Black, Arctic White, Iridium Silver, Tenorite Grey, Stone Grey, Blue Grey, and Pebble Grey. Custom paint is available. Color-keyed bumpers and body moldings come standard. Exterior standards include tinted side and rear windows, rear slider screened windows, a rear hitch with wiring package, a rear backup camera, 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 handles cable TV input, fresh water fill, exterior shower, and a macerator pump with power gates and hose reel.
Interior and Cabinetry
The Patriot's signature interior feature is Midwest's hydro-graphed wood cabinetry throughout, paired with matching hydro-graphed front cabinet accent panels. This is the cabinet treatment that separates the Patriot from the sister Heritage model (which uses laminated European curved uppers with halo lighting) and identifies the Patriot as the original Midwest camper conversion aesthetic. Interior amenities include soft-touch automotive color-keyed walls and headliner, one-piece composite 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.
Wet Bath
The wet bath uses 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 clothesline.
Galley
The Patriot galley pairs solid-surface countertops with a deep stainless steel sink, a stainless steel microwave (convection microwave on the MD2), a coordinated front-panel refrigerator (3.5 cu ft on the FD2 and MD4, or 7.3 cu ft 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.
Standard Climate and Power
Climate control runs the Gree rooftop A/C, the Timberline 17,000 BTU diesel and 5,000 BTU 120V combo furnace, and the Timberline tankless diesel and 120V hot water heater. Standard power management runs the Onan QG 2500LP 2.5-kilowatt 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, 15 gallons on the MD2 and MD4), and a Shurflo 3 GPM water pump at 55 PSI 12VDC. House battery is a single 70Ah AGM on the FD2, or a single 330Ah 8D deep-cycle AGM on the MD2 and MD4.
Optional Freedom 1080 Package
The Freedom 1080 Package is the option that turns the Patriot into a fully electric off-grid coach. It replaces the standard Onan generator, propane gas system, and AGM battery bank with 1,080 amp-hours of Dragonfly LiFePO4 lithium (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 280-amp high-output secondary alternator, and 320 watts of solar power. Onboard propane comes out entirely. This is the direct descendant of Midwest's pioneering 2016 Freedom Package, which was the first lithium-electric system to eliminate propane in a Sprinter conversion.
Audio, Entertainment, and Safety
Audio runs through the Alpine sound system with amp and subwoofer, an HDMI input to the main TV, multiple 120V outlets, multiple 12V USB chargers, a rear HDTV (front HDTV on the MD4), digital touchscreen coach controls, overhead courtesy lighting, and a climate-controlled roof fan. Safety equipment includes smoke, propane, and carbon monoxide detectors and a fire extinguisher.
Holding Tanks
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 come standard.

Midwest Automotive Designs Patriot FAQs
What is the Midwest Automotive Designs Patriot?
The Patriot is Midwest Automotive Designs' flagship luxury Class B Mercedes-Benz Sprinter camper conversion. It includes a wet bath, induction galley, hand-crafted Midwest hydro-graphed wood cabinetry, a power folding rear sofa bed, and the option to upgrade to the Freedom 1080 all-electric power package. It's offered in four floor plans (MD2 170 STD, MD2 170 EXT, MD4 170 EXT, and FD2 144) across three Sprinter wheelbase options.
What chassis is the Patriot built on?
The Mercedes-Benz Sprinter chassis with the 2.0L Inline-4 turbo diesel at 208 horsepower and 332 lb-ft of torque, paired with the 9-speed 9G-Tronic automatic transmission. Buyers can order rear-wheel-drive or all-wheel-drive. Three wheelbase options are offered: the 144-inch, the 170-inch standard, and the 170-inch extended.
Is the Patriot a Class B?
Yes. The Patriot is a Class B luxury Sprinter conversion, built inside the body of a Mercedes-Benz Sprinter cargo van with the wet bath, kitchen, sleeping area, and electrical systems integrated into the original van shell.
Is the Patriot AWD?
Available as an option. The Patriot is offered in both rear-wheel-drive and all-wheel-drive Sprinter configurations across every floor plan. AWD adds about 4 inches to the overall height (9 feet 11 inches on AWD versus 9 feet 6 to 7 inches on RWD). Buyers who plan winter or off-pavement travel typically go with AWD.
How much can the Patriot tow?
The Patriot has a 5,000-pound maximum hitch rating with a 500-pound nose weight rating across all four floor plans. That's enough for a small SUV or sedan toad, an enclosed cargo trailer, a small boat, or a utility trailer. The FD2 carries a 13,930-pound GCWR; the MD2 and MD4 carry a 15,250-pound GCWR. Verify your specific tow vehicle's weight against the coach's actual GCWR before you hook up.
What floor plans does the Patriot come in?
Four floor plans. The FD2 144 (19 feet 6 inches, 5 belted passengers, 68-by-74-inch bed). The MD2 170 STD (22 feet 10 inches, 5 belted passengers, fold-down driver writing table). The MD2 170 EXT (24 feet 2 inches, 5 belted passengers, 68-by-80-inch bed, fold-down writing table). The MD4 170 EXT (24 feet 2 inches, 7 belted passengers with rear captain's chairs on swivel/slide pedestals).
What is the difference between the Patriot and the Heritage?
Both the Patriot and the Heritage share the Mercedes-Benz Sprinter chassis, the drivetrain options, the FD2/MD2/MD4 floor plan structure, exterior painted cladding, Gree A/C, macerator pump, and the standard appliance package. The defining difference is the interior cabinetry aesthetic. The Patriot uses Midwest's signature hydro-graphed wood cabinetry throughout with matching hydro-graphed front cabinet accent panels (the original Midwest look). The Heritage uses laminated European curved upper cabinets with ambient halo lighting and roll-up screen doors (a contemporary European-inspired look). Pick the Patriot for the traditional wood-grain aesthetic. Pick the Heritage for the modern European treatment.
What is the difference between the Patriot and the Patriot Cruiser?
The Patriot is a full camper conversion built for extended travel: it comes standard with a wet bath, induction galley, power folding rear sofa bed, and standard climate and power systems designed for camping. The Patriot Cruiser is a day-cruiser configuration on the same Sprinter chassis: it's built around luxury seating, sound, video, and connectivity for business travel, executive transport, sports team travel, and personal luxury road trips, without a full bath or kitchen as standard (both are available through the optional Patriot Cruiser Package). Pick the Patriot for camping and overnight travel. Pick the Patriot Cruiser for day-trip luxury transport.
What is the Freedom 1080 Package?
The Freedom 1080 Package is Midwest's optional all-electric power upgrade for the Patriot. It replaces the standard Onan propane generator, propane gas system, and AGM battery bank with 1,080 amp-hours 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 280-amp high-output secondary alternator, and 320 watts of solar power. Onboard propane comes out entirely. It's the descendant of Midwest's original 2016 Freedom Package, which was the first lithium-electric system in a Sprinter conversion to eliminate propane.
What color options does the Patriot offer?
Seven exterior color options: Obsidian Black, Arctic White, Iridium Silver, Tenorite Grey, Stone Grey, Blue Grey, and Pebble Grey. Custom paint is available as an upgrade. Color-keyed bumpers and body moldings come standard.
How many people does the Patriot sleep?
The primary sleeping surface on every Patriot is the power folding rear sofa bed. The FD2 uses a 68-by-74-inch sofa bed. The MD2 floor plans use a larger 68-by-80-inch sofa bed. The MD4's sofa bed pairs with the rear captain's chairs, which can convert to add additional sleeping configurations. Overall sleeping capacity across the lineup is typically two to four depending on floor plan and configuration.
What is the Weekender Package?
The Weekender Package is an optional interior trim upgrade for the Patriot. It adds weaved flooring in place of the standard one-piece composite flooring, a rain glass shower door in the wet bath, and power window shades in place of the standard privacy shade package. It's a smaller-scale interior finish upgrade for buyers who want a more elevated look without stepping up to the full Freedom 1080 Package.
Can I drive the Patriot without a special license?
Yes, in all US states. The Patriot is built on the Mercedes-Benz Sprinter chassis, which stays under the weight and length thresholds that trigger a commercial driver's license or any state's special motorhome endorsement. A standard driver's license covers it everywhere in the US.
How much does a Patriot cost?
Pricing depends heavily on the option choices. The Freedom 1080 Package is the biggest price mover, followed by AWD, the Weekender Package, and the Starlink satellite system. MHSRV discounts every new Patriot well below MSRP. Contact the sales team for a current out-the-door quote on a specific in-stock unit.
