2012/2013 Mercedes-Benz B-class

The new B-class 5-door has been both spied and rendered by French magazine Automobile-magazine.fr. It will benefit from Benz's partnership with Nissan-Renault, receiving Renault's 0.9 liter turbocharged 3-cylinder gas engine as an entry-level model; however, if it comes to the USA, expect a turbocharged 4-cylinder as an entry option. It will leave behind the sandwich architecture, instead taking on a traditional FWD, front-engined architecture.
