With the B-Class F-CELL, Mercedes-Benz is the world’s first manufacturer to put a fuel-cell
car on the road that was produced under series conditions. The drive system of this environ-
mentally friendly electric vehicle offers strong performance similar to a 2-liter gasoline engine
combined with full everyday practicality. Thanks to its long range of 400 kilometers and short
fill-up times of about three minutes, locally emission-free mobility is now a reality with the
B-Class F-CELL also on longer journeys. Production of the B-Class F-CELL started with a small
series at the end of 2009. The first of approximately 200 cars will be delivered to customers
in Europe and the United States in the spring of 2010.
