Mercedes B200 - The Superb Luxury Car

The Mercedes-Benz B-Class marked in 2005 for the German manufacturer Daimler to enter into a new class of vehicle: the compact van. After the Stuttgart had already introduced a small model in the market with his A-Class at the end of the 1990s, And although other manufacturers had developed concepts similar to the market, the new Mercedes-Benz B-Class in Germany succeeded in capturing a large share of the market for compact vans.


Spacious

The building platform of the Family Vans was based on the ground group of the A-Class, Which was stretched 20 cm in length for the new model. Thus the B-Class could grow by a total of 40 centimeters to 4.27 meters against the smallest Benz, thus creating a larger interior with greater storage volume with the rear seat bench folded back.
