Load Compartment package

Transport everyday and recreational items even more practically and safely. The Load Compartment package combines additional stowage and connection options such as the 12 V socket. Your car gains versatility and becomes a mini charging point. For example, it powers your cooler bag for shopping or a trip to the beach.

The THERMOTRONIC automatic climate control system in the new B-Class.

THERMOTRONIC automatic climate control

THERMOTRONIC controls the individual temperature in two zones. You and your front passenger can thus set your preferred climate independently of one another. And you never have to readjust, because the sensitive sensors even register changes in conditions, such as sunlight.

Sidebags in the rear

The side airbags in the rear protect the chest area of passengers on the outer rear seats in the event of a severe side impact. Together with the standard windowbags, they offer optimum safety potential to prevent or mitigate injuries. The air cushions deploy between the side of the door and the occupant.

The lowered comfort suspension of the new B-Class.

Lowered comfort suspension

Special tuning of the springs and dampers supports sporty driving - without you having to sacrifice the usual comfort elsewhere. Lowering the suspension by 15 millimetres means that your vehicle hugs the road more visibly as well. This reinforces the impression of dynamism and power.
