Plug-in hybrids blend performance with practicality and can be specified as either an A 250 e Hatchback or Saloon.
For the new B-Class, engine choice is either a B200 d or B200; with all powertrain technology the same across both models.
The A-Class and B-Class are now available with either a 7 or 8 speed DCT gearbox depending on engine choice.
