Design & Presence

From the outside the T‑Class looks like a neat middle ground between a compact MPV and a small van, with a tall roof and a Mercedes family face that keeps it from looking utilitarian. At up to 4,922 mm in the long version and 1,811 mm tall it has real road presence without feeling oversized in town. Lines are simple and practical rather than flashy, which suits buyers who want a premium badge with sensible packaging.

Interior & Usability

Cabin quality leans toward Mercedes' understated premium: soft-touch areas and clear controls up front with some durable plastics lower down where family life happens. Seating for five is standard and the layout favours straightforward usability rather than avant-garde design, so climbing in, loading kids and daily groceries is uncomplicated. Visibility is good thanks to the tall greenhouse and large mirrors, while comfort options and trim choices can push the feel closer to traditional Mercedes compact models.

Space & Everyday Practicality

Practicality is the headline: the boot starts at about 520 litres with seats up and expands to a maximum of around 2,127 litres with seats folded, giving enough room for strollers, holiday luggage or flat-packed furniture. The long-wheelbase variant adds useful legroom and extra cargo length for bikes or long loads, and a payload of roughly 520–630 kg means the T‑Class can carry a heavy load without drama. Tall passengers benefit from the high roof, while the compact exterior dimensions keep parking and daily manoeuvres manageable.

Driving & Handling

Under the bonnet there are petrol and diesel mills ranging roughly from 95 to 131 hp, and the quickest versions still take around 11.6–12.8 seconds to reach 100 km/h, so this is about calm, usable performance rather than sportscar thrills. Front-wheel drive and a suspension tuned for comfort give predictable handling and a composed ride, but expect noticeable body roll once the van-like height is pushed hard into corners. Steering is light and confidence-inspiring at city speeds, making the T‑Class an easy car to live with day-to-day.

Efficiency, Consumption & Range

Fuel consumption quoted falls in a sensible band: petrols around 6.8–7.4 L/100 km and diesels about 5.1–5.3 L/100 km, with a 54‑litre tank that translates into real-world ranges of roughly 700–1,000 km depending on engine and driving style. Diesels deliver the best economy and longest range for motorway miles, while the smaller petrols are fine for mixed urban use and lighter loads. CO2 figures sit in the mid-range for this class, which affects running costs and emissions-related charges in some markets.

Assistance & Infotainment

The T‑Class adopts Mercedes' infotainment ethos with a clear digital display and connectivity features that include smartphone mirroring and voice control, keeping daily interactions familiar to anyone used to modern MBUX systems. Driver aids cover the basics and more — adaptive cruise, lane assistance and parking helpers are available — which can turn longer runs and crowded car parks into less stressful chores. Controls are logical and the tech feels integrated rather than tacked-on, though top-tier safety and comfort features are typically reserved for higher trims.

Who Is It For?

The T‑Class suits buyers who want the practicality of a small van with a badge and cabin more in line with premium compact cars — families, active couples and small businesses who carry people and gear in equal measure. It won't satisfy drivers looking for sharp handling or sports-car pace, but it delivers roomy headroom, sensible cargo capacity and the type of comfort that makes everyday life easier. In short, it is a pragmatic, well-packaged choice for anyone who values utility wrapped in Mercedes' familiar styling and equipment.
