Where is the battery located in the Mercedes-Benz B200?

The battery of the Mercedes-Benz B200 is located at the front of the engine compartment, and it can be seen by opening the front hood. The Mercedes-Benz B200 is a compact car with a body size of 4423mm in length, 1796mm in width, and 1555mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2729mm. The Mercedes-Benz B200 is equipped with a 1.3T 136 horsepower L4 engine, paired with a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission, delivering a maximum power of 100 kW and a maximum torque of 200 Nm, with a top speed of 212 km/h. It features a MacPherson strut front suspension and a torsion beam rear suspension.
I once replaced the battery of my Mercedes-Benz B200 myself. It's not located in the front engine compartment but hidden under the right side of the trunk floor. You need to lift the luggage compartment carpet and rubber mat, then remove a plastic cover to access the battery box. This design aims to save space, optimize weight distribution, and reduce clutter in the engine bay. During the operation, I first turned off the engine and removed the key, wore insulated gloves, and loosened the securing bolts before disconnecting the negative terminal followed by the positive one. Take some time each month to check if the terminals are corroded; just apply some anti-corrosion spray. If the car is hard to start or the lights are dim, it's likely a battery issue. The location makes maintenance convenient, but don't forget the safety steps.
