The new B-Class from Mercedes-Benz is all set to be launched in the second half of 2018, as the recent spy shots suggest that the compact hatchback is nearing its production stage. The 2019 Mercedes-Benz B-Class was spotted with minimum camouflage recently opposing media reports that the company is mulling to stop its production.

Mercedes-Benz was recently spotted putting the next-generation B-Class mini-MPV thorough it passes. The video footage that has surfaced online reveals a heavily camouflaged test mule which still appears to be in the initial phase of development, judging by the lack of production parts on the vehicle.

Its one of the most successful models for Mercedes-Benz in recent times, selling over 350,000 units since its second generation launched in 2011. That is the B-Class that has been seen as not just a big hatch, but also the creator of what's now called the Sports Tourer segment in Europe.
