The Mercedes new A-Class has three design lines - style, urban and AMG sport, and a variety of further options.

The engines in the new A-Class, which develop up to 155 kW (211 HP), offer a combination of power and top efficiency. This can be enhanced even further on request - with a driving dynamics package featuring a direct-steer system, or the 7G-DCT dual clutch transmission, which responds automatically when a gear change is required.

Standard systems, such as the Attention Assist and the Collision Prevention Assist, help ensure the optimum level of safety. With such features, the new A-Class sets new standards in the compact car segment.

The vehicle has optional sporty extras including sports seats with integrated head restraints, and the rear bench seat arrangement, which offers room for three passengers, but retains the sporty look of two individual seats.

Innovative multimedia systems offer a digital lifestyle in the A-Class. On request, smartphones can be fully integrated into the operating and display system. The freestanding Central Media Display with a screen size of up to 17.8 centimetres presents audio functions, maps, web pages and apps in a logical, modern design.

For the first time, performance specialists from AMG were involved at an early stage in the development of the compact model. The result is the most dynamic version of the model series – the A-Class Sport engineered by AMG. Its outstanding features include a front axle developed by AMG with specially tuned matching suspension. Its sporty appearance is further accentuated by a new diamond grille, exclusive AMG 18-inch alloy wheels in a five-spoke design, and red highlighting features on the AMG front and rear aprons, and also on the brake callipers.

A large number of equipment variants are available for customisation of the vehicle.
