Engine Options and Performance
In terms of engine options, the Mercedes B-Klasse offers a variety of powertrains, including petrol MHEV, diesel, and plug-in hybrid options. The power ranges from 116 HP up to a robust 238 HP, and it features a selection of transmissions, including dual-clutch automatic and traditional automatics. The B-Klasse excels with a maximum speed of 250 km/h and impressive acceleration, reaching 0-100 km/h in as little as 6.5 seconds.
The Taigo, while limited to petrol engines, provides a range of 95 HP to 150 HP. With manual or dual-clutch automatic transmission options, it offers decent performance, but not quite to the level of the B-Klasse, with 0-100 km/h times ranging from 8.2 to 11.1 seconds and a top speed of 212 km/h. The Taigo shines in fuel efficiency, with consumption figures around 5.4 to 5.8 L/100km.
