Trunk dimensions Mercedes-Benz B-Class

The trunk of the Mercedes Benz B-Class (2007, hatchback) offers a volume of about 17.7 cu ft with the rear seats upright and up to 53 cu ft with the seats folded down. The rear bench is split 60:40, allowing flexibility when transporting luggage.

The interior design is functional and high-quality, with a low loading edge that facilitates loading and unloading. The trunk dimensions vary within the model range, but the shape mostly remains rectangular, supporting optimal space utilization.

Typical features include good practicality and a thoughtful arrangement of tie-down points and storage compartments.

Model Information

The Mercedes-Benz B-Class is a compact van distinguished by its versatility and modern technologies. The latest series of the B-Class offers a combination of comfort, functionality, and appealing design.

It targets families and active people who value space and flexibility. The B-Class is known for its high build quality and innovative safety features that enhance driving comfort.

Variants of the Same Series

The B-Class is part of the Mercedes-Benz compact class, which also includes other models like the A-Class, CLA, and GLA. It is important not to confuse these models as they have different body styles and target groups.

While the A-Class is designed as a sedan and the CLA as a sporty coupe variant, the B-Class offers more space and functionality inside, making it ideal for families.

Model Year Differences

The Mercedes-Benz B-Class has undergone several model changes since its introduction. The most significant changes affecting body and trunk dimensions occurred in 2018 with the introduction of the third generation.

This model series offers improved space utilization and a larger trunk volume compared to previous models, which provided less space.

Direct Competitors

In the same price range and size, there are several comparable models, such as the BMW 2 Series Active Tourer and the Volkswagen Golf Variant.

The BMW 2 Series Active Tourer offers a trunk volume of about 14.3 cu ft, while the Golf Variant provides around 21.4 cu ft of cargo space. These differences in trunk volume can be decisive depending on individual buyer needs.

More Affordable Alternatives

For buyers seeking similar trunk dimensions as the B-Class but with a lower budget, models like the Skoda Octavia or the Ford Focus wagon are interesting alternatives.

The Skoda Octavia offers a trunk volume of about 21.2 cu ft, while the Ford Focus wagon with about 20.3 cu ft is also a good option. These models provide similar functionality often at a more affordable price.

Trunk space Mercedes-Benz B-Class

Trunk Volume

The manufacturer specifies a trunk volume of 17.7 cu ft. This is +19.29% compared to an average car and corresponds to about 8.3% of the total vehicle volume (LxWxH/2), which is around 1.9 percentage points more than average.

With the rear bench folded down, the roof-high volume is 51.4 cu ft (about 24% of the vehicle volume, +2.2 percentage points above average) – sufficient for bulky/tall cargo.

Practical figures from tests and equipment:

Under the trunk cover: 12.2 cu ft.
Without cover up to the roof: 19.4 cu ft (deviating from the manufacturer’s figure for standard use).
Up to the window sill with folded rear bench: up to 24.7 cu ft (recommended for safety reasons).
Maximum behind the front seats: 45.7 cu ft.
Double loading floor can separate about 1.4 cu ft.
Practical example: space for up to eight beverage crates.

Conclusion: The B-Class offers above-average volume for a compact van; for everyday use (shopping, stroller, vacation luggage) the cargo space is very good, for very tall or unusually long loads, roof-high use with folded bench is advisable.

Vehicle Size and Parking Friendliness

Dimensions: 171.7 in length, 70.5 in width, 61.4 in height.

Compared to average: the vehicle is 7.9 in shorter (-4.4%), 2.4 in narrower (-3.5%), and 0.4 in lower (-0.4%) than an average car. Relative to a standard parking space, it is 25.2 in shorter and 28 in narrower.

Impact: The compact exterior dimensions make the B-Class city- and parking-friendly. Easy parking maneuvers and better maneuverability in daily use. Longer cargo remains limited; for very long items, the interior length behind the front seats is relevant.

Trunk Usability and Flexibility

Rear seat bench: The backrests fold in three parts and can be unlocked from the rear seat area – easy handling without much effort. Optionally, there is a sliding, reclining rear bench.

Operation comfort and accessibility:

In the tested equipment package, the tailgate is electric (standard with push-button); hands-free opening by foot kick is available at extra cost.
Loading edge is about 24.8 in above the road – convenient for loading and unloading.
With double loading floor, the inner step can be nearly eliminated (from ~2.8 in to practically 0).
Interior lighting in the trunk is minimal (only one LED on the left in later models).

Practical limitations:

Standard equipment offers few useful storage options and basic tie-down points; many useful details only in the optional cargo package.
For persons about ~1.95 m tall, there is a risk of head impact on the open tailgate.

Conclusion: Good everyday usability thanks to variable loading surfaces, practical loading edge, and electrically operated tailgate. Extent and comfort of use strongly depend on the chosen equipment.

General Model Information

Fame and positioning: The Mercedes B-Class is a compact van/MPV focusing on variability and comfort in the compact segment.

Special features and peculiarities:

Electric tailgate (standard in tested equipment), optionally hands-free by foot kick.
Comfort features like front camera (traffic light view in display) and illuminated door handles are available, often at extra cost.
Safety note: The Keyless-Go system showed vulnerabilities to relay attacks in tests; users can deactivate the system by double-pressing the key or wait for automatic radio signal shutdown.

Price-performance aspect: Many practical extras are optional at extra cost. The B-Class provides a solid base as standard; those wanting maximum usability and comfort often need to select packages or options – this affects the price-performance ratio.

Competitor models (segment): typical alternatives are the BMW 2 Active Tourer, the VW Golf Sportsvan, and the (former) Ford C-Max — all offering similar focus on variability and family use.

Brief summary: The Mercedes B-Class 2014 offers above-average cargo volume in a compact, parking-friendly format. For maximum everyday usability, sensible options like cargo package, electric tailgate, or sliding rear bench should be considered.
