Mercedes-Benz is referring to the new B-Class as a compact sports tourer and its new design reflects that sportier stance. Official images of the next-generation B-Class have been released here ahead of the model's public debut at the Frankfurt motor show next month and we get a detailed look, with 45 photos in the album, at the new compact.
