Verdict
Monospace compact premium noté 5 étoiles à l'Euro NCAP en 2019. Les retours publiés se limitent à des avis d'utilisateurs favorables et à une série de rappels constructeur (airbags, sièges avant, joint de turbo des diesels, boulons de roue) : aucune panne récurrente n'est documentée par plusieurs sources, mais vérifiez que chaque campagne a été traitée avec le numéro de série.

You are importing the car to:
Import penalty (malus) in France
- The CO₂ malus follows the scale of the year the vehicle was first registered, in France or abroad (WLTP or NEDC scale depending on its registration certificate).
- For an imported used car, it is reduced by a flat-rate discount based on its age in months (scheme in force since 1 March 2025). The weight malus also applies on first registration in France.
- The malus is zero for a car more than fifteen years old or first registered before 1 January 2015.

Check an imported car's history
HistoVec only covers the vehicle's life in France. For a car coming from abroad, a VIN-based report helps spot inconsistent mileage or a reported accident.

Known faults
No fault publicly documented so far, so reliability is not rated. This is no guarantee: have the car checked all the more carefully before buying.
Manufacturer recalls
Manufacturer recall campaigns, fixed free of charge at a dealer:
- Boulons de roue insuffisamment serrés (rappel) (B 180, B 200, B 180 d, B 200 d 4MATIC, B 250 e)

Inspection checklist
Mercedes-Benz Classe B III (W247) — inspection checklist
Things to check
- Faire vérifier les rappels avec le numéro de série chez un concessionnaire Mercedes : sièges avant et airbags sur les 2018-2020, joint de turbo des diesels de mai 2024, boulons de roue sur les voitures récentes.
- Contrôler que les voyants d'airbag et d'aides à la conduite (détecteur d'angle mort) s'éteignent correctement.
- Mesurer la garde au sol à l'usage : un propriétaire se plaint qu'elle racle sur les ralentisseurs.
- Sur l'hybride rechargeable, vérifier l'autonomie électrique réelle et l'historique de charge.
- Exiger le carnet d'entretien complet avec les factures des révisions.
Questions to ask the seller
- Tous les rappels constructeur ont-ils été réalisés ? Avez-vous les attestations du concessionnaire ?
- Le voyant d'airbag ou les capteurs d'aide à la conduite ont-ils déjà posé problème ?
- Le carnet d'entretien est-il complet et chez qui ont été faites les révisions ?
Test-drive tip: read the fault codes
A warning light that is off proves nothing: a fault may have been cleared just before the viewing. A Bluetooth OBD2 scanner, plugged in under the steering wheel and read on your phone, shows stored codes and whether all emissions readiness tests have run since the last reset.
Electric or hybrid equivalent
No direct electric or hybrid equivalent in our guides. Simulate combustion vs electric cost

Insure the car
Insurance prices vary widely from one model to another: get a quote before signing.
