Pros & cons
Mercedes-Benz B 300 e
- AWD traction adds confidence in city and mixed-weather driving
- 500 km range from a 78 kWh battery supports commuting and road trips
- Brisk acceleration (0–100 km/h in 6.8 s) eases merging and passing
- Five seats and a 480 L trunk suit growing families’ daily needs
- Enthusiasts may want more excitement; 180 km/h top speed and 6.8 s 0–100 are brisk, not sporty

- Only five seats with no third row for larger families
- Price of 45,000 may not fit tighter budgets
