Mercedes-Benz B-Class
Introduced in 2013, the second generation FWD B-Class added an all-wheel drive 4Matic version in 2015. While Americans get an electric version, the B-Class is otherwise a Canadian exclusive, made popular here thanks to its roomy and versatile interior. Again, the sole version is the B250, powered by a 208-horsepower turbocharged 4-cylinder engine with direct injection, paired to a double-clutch 7-speed automatic gearbox. Instead of trim lines, the B-Class can be personalized through wheel choices and option packages.
