The new Mercedes-Benz B-Class 2015
In terms of both design and technology, the second generation of the B-Class has ushered in a new compact-class era at Mercedes-Benz. More than 380,000 units of the sports tourer have been sold globally since its market launch in late 2011. The best-seller from Mercedes-Benz has now undergone a major facelift, including exterior and interior enhancements along with attractive, redefined design and equipment lines, with a choice of two efficient petrol engines at between 5.4 and 5.5 l/100 km. What is more, with a Cd value of less than 0.25 (B 180 CDI BlueEfficiency Edition), the sports tourer continues to be the role model in its class. The easiest way to recognize a face lifted B-Class is from the front: a new bumper, wide radiator trim with two louvres and now integral daytime running lamps in the headlamps give the vehicle a more organic and dynamic appearance. The rear bumper has also been modified and now features a contoured covering and chrome trim strip. LED High Performance headlamps create a more striking look, both day and night. They increase safety at night due to their wide beam pattern and light of a colour similar to daylight. Bicolour tail lamps featuring LED technology provide emphasis and make the vehicle more visible.
A high-grade, functional interior underscores the B-Class's claim to leadership. The facelift gives the vehicle a more exclusive, up-to-date feel while boosting the scope for individualization. Mercedes-Benz has enhanced a number of high-quality details in the B-Class, such as the large, free-standing head unit display, which is now larger, with a diagonal of up to 20.3 cm (8 inches), and the stylish dial layout for the instrument cluster. There is a choice of 12 colours for the ambient lighting, allowing different moods to be created.
Mercedes-Benz has also revised the model range and aligned the logic to the other compact models. There are three new design and equipment lines: Style, Urban and AMG Line. Each features a number of distinctive exterior and interior details. The Night, Exclusive and AMG Exclusive packages build on these and provide more options for individualization.
New optional extras include the KEYLESS-GO starting function – whereby the vehicle is started by pressing the starter button - and also KEYLESS-GO. This access and drive authorization system, which also incorporates the KEYLESS-GO starting function, allows the vehicle to be opened, started and locked simply by carrying the electronic key with you.
Next-generation telematics offer more intuitive operation; functions are more accessible due to animated menus and visual representations on a larger display in the head unit.
