When you put together two of the best-known names in the car industry, in the shape of Mercedes-Benz and Tesla Motors, you can expect fireworks when their collaboration is over. Therefore, it will be no surprise to those in the industry to learn that the Mercedes-Benz B classic electric car is expected to be very popular when launched in the US in 2014.

This vehicle has a journey capacity of 115 miles on a full charge which equates to around 200 km. There is also the opportunity for a further 60 miles on a quick two-hour charge which compares favourably to the seven hours required to fully charge the car’s battery. Do you think the Mercedes-Benz B classic electric car will be a success?
