The B-Class is smart inside, comfortable and really practical. If you’re looking for a genuine SUV alternative and you don’t need seven seats, it’s well worth a look. The petrol in AMG Line Executive trim is our pick, but company car users might find the plug-in hybrid BMW 2 Series Active Tourer of interest.
This brings a sportier look with its AMG bodykit and larger 18in alloy wheels. The interior comes with sports part-leather front seats, silver pedals and more versatile 40/20/40 split-folding rear seat.
This is the only diesel engine available, with 148bhp and a 0-62mph time of 8.5sec. Top speed is 136mph, and it comes with an eight-speed automatic gearbox.
