I see the manual for MY2015 describes cornering lights and adaptive beam assist, but neither function seems included on my car with Premium package. Did anyone figure out whether these features actually work?
 
I also wondered about the two features you describe and wasn't able to make them work.
With cornering lights I assume you mean the beams will pivot away from their normal direction when the car begins to turn away from its straight trajectory or one actions the turn signal.

Adaptive high-beam headlamps are reported as available on the B:

and a way to disable the feature.

However, cornering lights don’t seem available on the B class:

I find the low-beam headlamps "very low" and I often switch to high beams when driving in residential areas with no street lighting.
 
Actually, according to the manual the cornering light is an extra bulb in the headlamp that is supposed to come on when you take a turn. I have never seen any corner illumination from my car.

The adaptive beam assist should be shown on the dash as a high beam symbol with an A inside. Mine never comes on.
