Mercedes B250e 2025: Price, consumption, picture, technical data.
This is the facelifted Mercedes B250e, and while you may have to squint to see the changes, they are there.
Mercedes-Benz B250e
Mercedes-Benz designers first made some changes to the B-Class’s front fascia, including a revised front bumper and tweaked grille to give the car “a dynamic boost.” New LED headlights are also available.
Power delivery is surprisingly linear and as energetic as the official acceleration figure suggests, giving the B-Class’s electric drive more than sufficient performance in typical urban driving conditions. The B-Class’s electric drive handles cleanly and predictably thanks to the low position of the electric motor and battery, which results in its centre of gravity being 40mm lower than conventional B-Class models.
Fully charging an electric B-Class from a 16-amp socket takes about nine hours if the battery is almost empty. With a three-phase 400-volt power supply, the car can be charged in just three hours.
Inner
The cabin of the B-Class features a 7-inch digital instrument cluster and a 10.25-inch infotainment display as standard, although customers can opt for a larger 10.25-inch digital panel. The interior has been further improved with a new flat-bottomed steering wheel and the removal of the rotating infotainment display controller on the center console.
The MBUX system has also been updated to include a fingerprint sensor, an improved Hey Mercedes voice assistant and three redesigned display styles: Classic, Sport and Discreet.
The automaker has also worked to make the choice of materials used in the interior more environmentally friendly, including standard center section comfort seats made from 100% recycled materials.
Some safety upgrades have also been made, including an updated driver assistance package that includes an improved lane keeping assist system, active steering and an optional trailer maneuvering assist feature.
Technical characteristics
In terms of powertrain, all petrol variants of the Mercedes B250e are electrified, most using a 48-volt mild hybrid system with a belt-driven starter-generator. Depending on the market, the car will be offered in B 250 e, B 180, B 200, B 220 4Matic, B 250 4Matic, B 180 d, B 200 d and B 220 d versions.
The plug-in hybrid versions of the updated B-Class feature an improved high-voltage battery that can be charged with up to 11 kW AC instead of the previous 7.4 kW, in addition to the standard 3.7 kW charge. These models can also be charged with up to 22 kW using a DC charger, meaning the battery can be charged from 10 percent to 80 percent in 25 minutes. The electric motor has also been upgraded by a further 5 kW, bringing the total output to 80 kW.
