BlueEFFICIENCY from Mercedes-Benz stands for pioneering efficiency technologies as well as innovative packages of measures based on optimising fuel consumption and emission levels.

The BlueEFFICIENCY measures are comprehensive vehicle optimisations which help save fuel and ease the burden on the environment. The new B-Class also combines the most efficient engines with the optimum aerodynamics and energy management features available to keep fuel consumption to a minimum.

The latest-generation CDI diesel engines display compelling performance characteristics coupled with low consumption levels. Injection pressure has been increased, smoothness of operation enhanced and noise levels optimised, while reduced compression makes for lower emission levels.

The completely redeveloped 4-cylinder powerplant with direct petrol injection, variable valve timing and turbocharger, offers outstanding torque and power in two stages and exemplary quiet-running not to mention appropriately low fuel consumption and emissions.

Mercedes-Benz is the only automotive brand in the world to have received an ISO-standard Environmental Certificate. For this certification, the vehicle models have to meet strict requirements and undergo stringent controls in their development, production and recycling. Our goal is to make environmental protection objectively measurable and to make it possible for you as the driver to experience it concretely.
