New B Class?

[Mr E]

Mrs E has been hinting for a while that she'd like a B-Class. No objections from me, and they seem to be pretty good.

I sent an email to the guy I know at the local dealer - he's just called back to say that they have stopped producing the B-Class now, but are launching a 4wd varient called the BLK next year.

Has anyone seen/heard anything about this?

They seem to have been talking about BLK for years - IIRC it was going to be a multi-manufacturer co-operation. I didn't think it was real, to be honest.

I did see a comment, actually some months ago, about some B Class models being no longer available. But I also thought I saw something about a hybrid B Class coming?
