Test drive Mercedes Benz B-class W246 since 2012 Hatchback

Test Drive in Russia: Mercedes-Benz B200

We continue to move by testing the little children Mercedes-Benz. This time we came across B200

Nevertheless, white color is always to the face, especially if it is a car work by Mercedes-Benz. And in the gray stream it is noticeable, and in business circles they will not laugh. The xenon light of the headlights gives the charm of the already rapid appearance of the B200. It can easily be mistaken for a jeep hatchback is very non -standard body height. Of course, there is something minivanous in B200, but not too much. You forget about this as soon as you get behind the wheel. Landings are typical of off -road brothers, a good side review and a parking assistant make you relax a bit at the wheel. The graceful B200 is delighted until you find yourself in the cabin. There can be no analogies with Mega-Confluent Cayte A170, except for the receiver and climate control. The front panel of the B200 seemed to come to us from the 1980s. Its lines are so discouraged that it is not clear where you are: in the minibus Mercedes-Benz or in the passenger? This approach from the designers is not

completely clear. As a result, the lack of comfort in this machine is guaranteed. There are no complaints about the panel, which, however, has long been the norm for this German manufacturer of high -quality cars. God with him with this design, we will see how B200 will go. We take a thin steering wheel, unlike a chubby steering wheel A170, and try to go briskly. Gas on the floor, the car is conceived for a couple of seconds and only then undermines. A sharp press on the brake leads to a superbust and safe stop of a car. The suspension works as expected, without failures. True, travel through the tram tracks will cause a small shaking in the cabin.
Extraordinary B200 is primarily suitable for practical people, but not aesthetes in any case. A large and transformable salon, quite action -enough for such an engine volume and almost an SUV, this car will last a long time.
