Protect your Mercedes-Benz Vito (2010-2014) II generation (W639) Facelift with Kolchuga® skid plates, crafted from durable 2 mm thick steel. This robust protection acts as a shield for your engine, effectively safeguarding critical components against damage from road hazards. Designed specifically for your vehicle, these skid plates offer unparalleled durability and reliability.
The main Kolchuga® protection panel is made from high-quality steel with a thickness of 2 mm. Steel protection is available with two coating options, providing different levels of corrosion protection.
| Coating | Protection Technology | Purpose and Benefits | Corrosion Warranty |

| WhiteCover® | Hot-dip galvanizing (compliant with EN ISO 1461). | Reliable and long-lasting coating. Ideal for vehicles with very intensive use (e.g., commercial vehicles). | Up to 24 months |
| ZiPoFlex® | Premium combination: Hot-dip galvanizing + Polymer painting + Polymer lacquer. | The ultimate solution for any, even the most demanding operating conditions (corrosivity category C5). | Up to 36 months |
This skid plate covers essential areas including the engine, radiator, and gearbox, ensuring comprehensive protection. Its engineered design includes reinforcing ribs that enhance impact absorption and ventilation openings to maintain optimal engine temperature. Some models also feature service access openings for easy maintenance.
Kolchuga® protection effectively shields against impacts from rocks, ice, curbs, and speed bumps, reducing the risk of costly repairs. Installation is straightforward, mounting directly to factory points without the need for drilling or modifications, ensuring both ease and reliability.
How does Kolchuga® protection differ from the factory one? The factory (stock) protection is typically a plastic dust cover (splash guard) or thin composite material. Its main function is protection from dirt and dust. In contrast, Kolchuga® protection is a durable metal plate (steel or aluminum) that serves as a mechanical shield. It provides reliable protection from impacts against rocks, branches, or open manholes. The key difference: Factory protection guards against dirt, while Kolchuga® guards against impact.
