2012 Mercedes B180 Blue Efficiency road test review, images, specs, price and details

Verdict

The B-Class is more car than it appears to be. It’s packed tight with features, features sophisticated technology, drives well, has loads of space inside and drives like a dream. The only thing that goes against it is the fact that it’s a hatchback – body type that doesn’t go well with us Indians who relate value with body types and size for some reason. True, it doesn’t have the street presence of a sedan or an SUV, but for the discerning who merit solid engineering and features more than looks, the B-class presents a strong case for itself.

Price: Rs 21.5 – 25 lakh ex-Delhi

Positives

  1. I believe that is among the most important info for me.
    And i am glad reading your article. But want to commentary on few basic things, The
    site style is wonderful, the articles is really nice
    : D. Excellent process, cheers

  2. With Motoroids I always wondered why the reviews always came up on the site later than others. But then I feel the professionalism and nitty gritty points that you cover make other reviews look like hurried and amateur assignments 😉

    Though not majorly a car guy- but I love reading about automobiles in general. You can take me as a newest reader of your website, but will be regular here henceforth 🙂
