History

The B-Class (from 2005) is a tall, practical compact MPV sharing its front-drive platform with the A-Class, prioritizing interior space.

In the US it was sold chiefly as the battery-electric B-Class Electric Drive (2014–2017, later renamed B250e), developed with Tesla; the conventional B-Class is sold in other markets.
