Elysium

Funeral Vehicle

The Elysium funeral car represents a refined evolution of the trusted Mercedes-based hearse platform, designed to deliver both dignified presence and practical functionality for funeral professionals.

With attention to detail and everyday usability in mind, the Elysium supports the respectful handling and transport of the deceased with a strength of performance that matches its elegant appearance.

Built on the latest Mercedes-Benz E-Class platform, the Elysium combines dynamic elegance with funeral-specific design elements. Its aerodynamic profile, distinctive grille, and LED lighting offer a refined visual identity that enhances any funeral procession.

Design with purpose

At the core of the Elysium is a focus on balancing aesthetics and operational practicality.

While sharing much of its technical foundation with the renowned Pulsar hearse, the Elysium features a modified rear access solution that improves accessibility and ease of use in daily service operations, particularly for loading, unloading, and working within constrained spaces.

Its exterior lines reflect the prestige of the Mercedes-Benz heritage, presenting a modern silhouette that conveys professionalism and respect.

Performance and practicality

The Elysium isn’t just about looks — it’s engineered to support funeral service workflows with features that promote reliability, durability, and comfort. The vehicle’s functional layout ensures that funeral teams can work efficiently, with thoughtful integration of systems such as automatic tailgate operation and a smooth coffin lift mechanism.

For operations in urban or restricted zones, Elysium can be specified with advanced hybrid powertrains that deliver both economical performance and reduced emissions. These plug-in hybrid options combine traditional combustion power with electric drive, enabling zero-emission travel where needed and smooth driving during parades or short transfers.

Everyday usability for funeral professionals

Elysium’s interior and cargo configuration are designed around the real needs of funeral homes and mortuary teams. Maintaining dignity and safety is central to the design, with features that support secure handling of the deceased and efficient workflow throughout. The refined ergonomics of access and control give funeral professionals confidence in even the most demanding environments.
