It's not just the face which has changed but also the interiors. Depending on the exterior colour chosen, the interior trim could either be beige or black. The steering wheel has been borrowed from the C. The screen between the meters is also new. Mercedes has added a hi-res tablet for the COMAND system. The front passenger gets an electric lumbar support while the driver gets electrical adjustment for lumbar support as well as the seat. Navigation system is also available.

Mercedes has also upgraded the B-Class' diesel engine to make 135PS/300Nm. The petrol though is the same 1.6-litre engine with 200Nm of torque. Both the engines come mated to a 7-speed DCT transmission. Fuel efficiency has also gone up in the diesel variant.

As for the A-Class diesel, it gets the same updated 135PS diesel engine from the new B.
