In fact, the German automaker claims the interior of the B-Klasse reflects the latest findings in the field of perceptual psychology made by Daimler AG’s Customer Research Center (CRC).
As you can see in the adjacent photos, there is a large, three-dimensional decorative element spanning the entire dashboard. This is available in four variants covering a broad spectrum including modern, sporty and classic.
Furthermore, Mercedes says the dashboard may be covered with stitched ARTICO man-made leather. There are also three large circular vents in the centre of the dashboard sporting sporty grilles. Above the vents is the high quality screen, which is available in two sizes. This boasts an ornamental frame with galvanised surface contrasting with the piano black of the front panel.
The new three-spoke steering wheel, used for example in the CLS, including an insert in the centre spoke that is always finished in silver chrome, an instrument cluster with four round, analogue displays and hanging needles in the 6 o’clock position and seats with contrasting stitching reinforce the car’s sporty image.
The new B-Klasse is scheduled to make its world public debut at the Frankfurt Auto Show this September, with the European markets first to have it two months later.
