Non-conformist from the outside and quite the style icon inside. It expels boredom from the street. And gives you an easy ride in the process. High-tech: it goes without saying. Safe: no question. Efficient: naturally. It could not be a more characteristic Mercedes. And at the same time very, very different. Hello, A-Class! 3 4 130 bpm * *When the view leaves you speechless, the heart speaks volumes. An expression of pulsating life: defined edges alongside tautly tensioned surfaces: concave curves, convex sweeping lines – in a perfect rhythm for light shows. And sinewy with it, athletic like a coupé. Lit-up eyes included: this is what a portrait of the A-Class feels like. 5 6 1 * 7 *Endless equipment options. And only one that sets the tone. Your head, your style, your personality, your A-Class. Three possible design and equipment lines, three confident statements: athletic and confident with Urban and Style or sporty through and through with the AMG Line. Even more “Me” with three optional Design packages: an extravagant exterior in the Night package, high-quality details in the Exclusive package, sporty presence in the AMG Exclusive package. The A-Class: a Mercedes-Benz where its genes are concerned. But it clearly takes after you. 8 9 800 x 480 * *The offline resolution: The COMAND Online. Sit at the wheel and steer the whole world. A full 17.8 cm display: your window to the web of possibilities. Surf in the browser, search with Google®, share on Facebook® and be there every bit of the way. And you won’t be alone in any situation in the real world, either: the electric parking brake, Active Parking Assist, reversing camera and HOLD function support your motoring pleasure. Technology that makes it easier to be human. 10 > 1000 km * *Every refuelling stop is something special. Good for progress and bank balance alike. The A-Class is a true endurance athlete. The economical consumption as low as 3.6 litres per 100 kilometres takes you further than you think. Thanks to efficient engines with direct injection and turbocharging. And the standard-specification ECO start/stop function which also helps to put the brakes on consumption at red traffic lights. The very essence of BlueEFFICIENCY. 11 12 13 5 + 11 * *More perception and less risk. Whenever the 5 senses reach their limits they are on hand: 11 assistance systems. Standard equipment for the A-Class includes the radar-based COLLISION PREVENTION ASSIST safety system, the ATTENTION ASSIST system and Hill-Start Assist. Even more safety is available optionally: the DISTRONIC PLUS adaptive cruise control and the PRE-SAFE® system. Technologies which can keep danger at bay. 14 15 16 cd = 0.27 * *If you save on wind resistance, you also save on consumption. The A-Class: a body that is so streamlined that the air runs out of breath. The result: a drag coefficient like that of notchback saloons. The best in its segment, in fact. This means lower fuel consumption and fewer fuelling stops. Pssst: this is also how we reduced the wind noise. 17 18 6.6 s * *Quick sprint: 0 to 100 km/h in a flash. Off and away with a lasting impression. A well-exercised heart as a drive system: high-torque and efficient 4-cylinder petrol and diesel engines. From one gear to another without any interruptions with the optional dual clutch transmission 7G-DCT. Your finger on the pulse of the road: the Sports Direct-Steer system and sports suspension in the optional Dynamic Handling package. An athlete where looks are concerned, too: with sports seats that have really earned their name and an optional diamond radiator grille. Don’t drive off if the fun factor is any less than this. 19 20 21 450 Nm * *Refresh your knowledge of physics in 4.6 seconds. The A 45 AMG stands for sport, dynamism, power and above all for itself. Because with its AMG 2.0-litre 4-cylinder turbocharged engine it achieves 360 hp, making it the undisputed leader in its segment. This means more hp, more torque and more AMG, sending the vehicle shooting over the road and the adrenaline through your veins. 22 As low as 6.9 l * *No other vehicle drives past so many filling stations with this much power. With great strength the A 45 AMG also assumes a lot of responsibility. By way of example, with 360 hp and 450 Nm it consumes between 7.1 and 6.9 litres per 100 kilometres in the combined test cycle. Because for sports cars from Affalterbach every drop counts just as much as every tenth of a second. 23 What makes a car a Mercedes? Deep-rooted traditions: in our case, it is innovative traditions that run deep. We have continually gone down previously uncharted avenues. Milestone by milestone. These ventures spawned the first vehicle with a crumple zone, the first ABS, the first diesel car. The first automobile. And whilst it’s good to look back, looking forward is even better. Mercedes me – welcome to a world that revolves entirely around you. We focus on people. No more so than when we developed a new platform for you to keep in close contact with Mercedes-Benz. With services that are tailored to your needs. “connect me” connects the vehicle to your world of experience, to everything that is important to you. “move me” provides new mobility solutions. And “inspire me” gives you an exclusive insight into the future of mobility. Your gateway to a fascinating world: www.mercedes.me Mercedes-Benz Intelligent Drive – on the road to accident-free driving. We develop intelligent technologies which actively support the driver and noticeably relieve the driver’s workload. Valuable assistants are already available in your Mercedes-Benz today: automatically helping to keep the car at a safe distance from the vehicle in front, braking when necessary and warning the driver of impending rear-end collisions or of vehicles in the blind spot. The sensor technology of the driving assistance and safety systems is interlinked intelligently. Potentially dangerous situations are identified earlier than ever – and ever more frequently avoided as a result. Discover the fascinating world of Mercedes-Benz Intelligent Drive at www.mercedes-benz-intelligent-drive.com BlueEFFICIENCY – our vision of emission-free driving. Sustainability is a big word to which we lend real meaning in all that we do, down to the smallest details. From minimising the environmental impact of our production operations to alternative drive concepts. We have major goals in our sights. What could be better than seeing them achieved on a long drive in a Mercedes? 26 Diesel engines. More economical, cleaner, more powerful: the A-Class also signals the launch of the latest Mercedes-Benz diesel technology. The engines are powerful and quiet. And they impress with their optimised emission and fuel-consumption figures. 4-cylinder in-line engines. The 4-cylinder diesel engines display hallmark Mercedes qualities: they boast a hefty torque and an immediate response, even at bottom-end revs. At the same time the diesel engines are modest when it comes to fuel consumption, are low on emissions and impress with their significantly improved quiet-­ running characteristics and their reduced vibrations. The fourth-generation common-rail diesel technology includes an injection pressure increased to 1800 bar, optimised combustion chambers and precise solenoid valve injectors. Improved ignition pressure and a turbocharger with a variable nozzle turbine ensure a high torque in every engine speed range. Intelligently controlled ancillaries help to increase efficiency. 150 125 kW 500 400 125 100 350 Nm 300 75 200 50 0 Torque (Nm) 1500 3000 Engine speed (rpm) The 4-cylinder diesel engines are available with the following outputs: ––A 160 CDI with 66 kW (90 hp) and a maximum torque of 240 Nm –– A 180 CDI with 80 kW (109 hp) and a maximum torque of 260 Nm (also as A 180 CDI BlueEFFICIENCY Edition) ––A 200 CDI/A 200 CDI 4MATIC with 100 kW (136 hp) and a maximum torque of 300 Nm – already compliant with the Euro-6 emissions standard –– A 220 CDI/A 220 CDI 4MATIC with 125 kW (170 hp) and a maximum torque of 350 Nm – already compliant with the Euro-6 emissions standard A 220 CDI 600 All the diesel engines have an ECO start/stop function that switches the engine off temporarily when the vehicle is stationary. 4500 Output (kW) The A 220 CDI achieves its peak torque of 350 Nm at between just 1400 The 4-cylinder diesel engine in the A 200 CDI combines pulling power with and 3400 rpm. low consumption and low emissions. Drive system and chassis Petrol engines. The petrol engines were developed with the aim of reducing fuel consumption and emissions without compromising on output and ride comfort. 4-cylinder in-line engines. The 4-cylinder powerplants with a displacement of 1.6 or 2.0 litres, direct petrol injection, variable valve timing and turbocharger offer outstanding torque and power, exemplary quiet operation plus appropriately low fuel consumption and emissions figures. The high-pressure direct injection via precise piezo injectors and an enhanced combustion process allow virtually total combustion and thus higher efficiency, which means that the fuel can be used more efficiently. The variable valve control results in an optimum cylinder charge level and therefore consumption benefits, which also come courtesy of the lower weight, less internal friction plus ancillaries controlled as required. And last but not least, A 180 350 160 300 140 250 120 200 Nm 200 90 kW 150 The 4-cylinder A 180 petrol engine boasts direct injection via piezo injectors and a turbocharger. The 4-cylinder petrol engines are available with the following outputs: ––A 180 with 90 kW (122 hp) and a maximum torque of 200 Nm (also as A 180 BlueEFFICIENCY Edition) ––A 200 with 115 kW (156 hp) and a maximum torque of 250 Nm ––A 250 with 155 kW (211 hp) and a maximum torque of 350 Nm (also as A 250 Sport, A 250 4MATIC and A 250 Sport 4MATIC) ––A 45 AMG 4MATIC with 265 kW (360 hp) and a maximum torque of 450 Nm 100 80 0 Torque (Nm) the standard-specification ECO start/stop function further improves engine efficiency. 2000 4000 Engine speed (rpm) All the petrol engines have low emissions and already meet the requirements of the Euro-6 emissions standard. 6000 Output (kW) The A 180 delivers a peak torque of 200 Nm between 1250 and 4000 rpm. 27 28 Transmissions. Whether you choose the manual transmission or the optional dual clutch transmission 7G-DCT, whether you prefer an economical or sporty driving style – both transmissions for the A-Class are optimally matched to the engine. They set benchmarks where shift comfort, efficiency and weight optimisation are concerned. 6-speed manual transmission (standard for A 160 CDI, A 180 CDI, A 200 CDI, A 180 and A 200). The 6-speed manual transmission enables rapid gear changes thanks to its short shift travel. The standard-specification ECO start/stop function switches off the engine temporarily when the vehicle is standing at traffic lights and in jams, thus saving fuel. The standard-fit ECO display in the instrument cluster likewise promotes an efficient driving style. The A 180 CDI and A 180 BlueEFFICIENCY Edition models are equipped with an efficiency-optimised 6-speed manual transmission. 7-speed dual-clutch transmission 7G-DCT (option, standard for A 220 CDI, A 250, A 250 Sport and models with 4MATIC all-wheel-drive1). With seven forward gears and one reverse gear the dual clutch transmission combines comfort, sportiness and economy. It comprises two sub-transmissions which each have their own clutch. One of these sub-transmissions supports the “even” gears and the other the “odd” gears. On accelerating or braking, the next gear up or down is preselected in the unused sub-transmission. When changing gear there is then a switchover to the other sub-transmission. This means that the gear change takes place without any delay or loss of traction. Both the clutch actuation and the gear change occur fully automatically, allowing particularly smooth gear shifting without any interruption in traction. A switch on the centre console is used to set the pre­se­ lecta­ble modes “Economy”, “Sport” and “Manual”. The modes differ from one another in terms of shift characteristics and shift speed. In “Sport” mode, changing up a gear takes place at higher engine speeds than is the case in “Economy” mode, changing down a gear earlier. The “Manual” mode gives sporty drivers the option of changing gear manually using the steering-wheel gearshift paddles included in the package. Also integrated is the ECO start/stop function for reducing fuel consumption and the gearshift recommendation display in “Manual” mode for efficient driving. In addition to this the currently engaged gear is always shown in the instrument cluster. An ergonomic DIRECT SELECT lever and the cruise control and SPEEDTRONIC functions are already included with 7G-DCT. 1 AMG models with AMG SPEEDSHIFT DCT 7-speed sports transmission. Drive system and chassis 29 30 Chassis & suspension. The driving characteristics of the A-Class can be tuned to individual requirements by specifying the optionally available combination of sports suspension and the Sports Direct-Steer system as an alternative to the standard-specification suspension and steering. Suspension and steering. The suspension maximises driving stability and optimises ride comfort – thanks to intelligent weight distribution, a McPherson front axle and a four-link rear axle. The standard-fit rack-and-pinion steering with the STEER CONTROL assistance system enables precise handling in critical driving situations. The electromechanical power assistance is reduced as the car’s speed increases. Sports suspension (part of the optional AMG Line design and equipment line and the optional Dynamic Handling package). The sports suspension blends agility and handling safety with good road roar and tyre vibration characteristics. The springs and dampers have sportily taut tuning, while the level of the car is lowered by 15 mm – rolling movements are reduced and driving stability is increased. Lowered comfort suspension is available as an alternative. Sports Direct-Steer system (part of the optional AMG Line design and equipment line and the optional Dynamic Handling package). The Sports Direct-Steer system enhances the comfort of speed-sensitive power steering with a ratio that varies depending on the steering wheel angle, ensuring that the steering movements produce an even more immediate response. It significantly reduces the steering effort required on tight bends or when parking, for instance. The straight-line stability is especially high at fast speeds and the feedback which the driver receives on the driving situation is very precise. 4MATIC. In its current version the permanent all-wheel drive system 4MATIC offers fully variable torque distribution between the front and rear axle. This facilitates sporty driving characteristics with optimum traction in different driving conditions - on snow, on ice or during dynamic manoeuvres, for example. The 4ETS dynamic handling control system additionally boosts driving safety and agility, particularly on surfaces offering varying grip or on slippery roads. Drive system and chassis 31 32 Integral safety concept. We are driven by our vision of accident-free driving. With our integral safety concept we are coming closer to achieving this goal – this is a holistic approach which can increase safety in every situation. As the inventor of the automobile we feel that we have a special responsibility for road safety. This is why we are the first car manufacturer to have developed an integral safety concept which seamlessly blends measures to enhance active and passive safety. The holistic approach is subdivided into four phases and offers safety solutions for every situation. It includes systems for safe driving which help to avoid risks by warning you and coming to your aid in good time. Our unique PRE-SAFE® is triggered in the event of danger and activates anticipatory measures for occupant protection. If a collision should occur despite these precautionary measures, further technologies ensure protection as needed. We have also borne in mind the time immediately following an accident and developed solutions which can help prevent worse and facilitate rapid help. A selection of these technologies for the “Safe driving”, “In the event of danger”, “In an accident” and “After an accident” phases is presented on the following pages. Safe driving: ATTENTION ASSIST (standard). This drowsiness detection system is especially useful on long trips. At speeds of between 80 and 180 km/h, ATTENTION ASSIST warns the driver as soon as it detects signs of drowsiness. Sensors analyse driving behaviour and can detect deviations from a previously determined, individual driver profile. Safe driving: COLLISION PREVENTION ASSIST (standard). At speeds of more than 7 km/h the system is able to detect when distances between the vehicle in which it is fitted and those in front or stationary obstacles are too short. If a hazard is detected the driver is given both visual and acoustic warnings. If the driver applies the brakes at the same time, Adaptive Brake Assist can provide the precise amount of braking power required for preventing an impending collision under ideal circumstances. If ATTENTION ASSIST detects signs of driver drowsiness it recommends COLLISION PREVENTION ASSIST can recognise a safety distance that is taking a break. too short and warn the driver. Safety Safe driving: ADAPTIVE BRAKE (standard). A dynamic handling control system with a modular structure. It offers additional safety and comfort functions alongside a base function such as the anti-lock braking system (ABS). The “dry braking” function can remove the film of water from the brake discs in wet conditions – the brake’s response time and therefore the stopping distance can be reduced. “Priming” ensures that the brake pads are placed against the brake discs as soon as the driver takes their foot off the accelerator pedal quickly. The time gained shortens the response time of the brakes. When moving off on an incline unintended rolling back is prevented during the space of time when the foot is moving from the brake pedal to the accelerator. If you briefly depress the brake pedal more firmly whilst the vehicle is stationary, the standard-specification HOLD function keeps the vehicle at a standstill, even if the driver takes their foot away from the brake pedal. Safe driving: DISTRONIC PLUS adaptive cruise control (option). The adaptive cruise control uses short and longrange radar to maintain the desired safe distance to the vehicle in front. The system operates at between 0 and 200 km/h and is also helpful in city traffic or stop-and-go traffic as the sensor can operate in a range of between 0.2 and 200 metres. When a danger of a rear-end collision arises, COLLISION PREVENTION ASSIST PLUS – part of DISTRONIC PLUS – is able to initiate partial braking in The DISTRONIC PLUS adaptive cruise control assists the driver by automatically keeping their vehicle at a safe distance from the vehicle in front. order to avoid a collision or to mitigate the consequences. The DISTRONIC PLUS adaptive cruise control is only available in conjunction with the optional 7-speed dual clutch transmission 7G-DCT. Safe driving: Lane Keeping Assist/Blind Spot Assist (option, both part of the optional Lane Tracking package). With the aid of the white lane markings, Lane Keeping Assist is able to detect a lane and through gentle steeringwheel vibrations it can warn the driver if they are in danger of leaving the lane unintentionally. Blind Spot Assist uses two radar sensors to monitor the area which can only be seen poorly by the driver directly alongside and behind the vehicle. If the assistance system detects the danger of an impending collision with another vehicle when changing lanes, the driver can be warned by both visual and acoustic signals if the car is travelling at 30 km/h or more. 33 34 Safe driving: Intelligent Light System (option). The system has the following functions: country mode, motorway mode, enhanced fog lamp function, active light function and cornering light function. The LED daytime running lamps integrated into the headlamps plus the LED tail lights enhance perceptual safety during the daytime. tensioned and the side windows and optional sliding sunroof automatically closed so that the belts and airbags can deploy their full protective effect should an impact occur. In an accident: active bonnet (standard). It can reduce the risk of injury to pedestrians or cyclists if they are involved in a collision with the bonnet in a speed range between 25 and 55 km/h. To cushion the blow, the bonnet is raised 6 centimetres at the rear by pyrotechnic means. PRE-SAFE® can recognise critical driving situations and initiate preventive The active bonnet helps to reduce the risk of injury to pedestrians and measures to protect the occupants. cyclists in collisions. In the event of danger: PRE-SAFE® system (option). The preventive occupant protection system PRE-SAFE® is able to recognise critical driving situations in advance and, if necessary, it can activate safety systems as a precaution to help reduce the risk of injury to occupants. This is based on PRE-SAFE® continuously monitoring sensor data from systems such as ESP® and BAS and identifying driving situations such as oversteer/understeer and emergency stops. If a critical driving situation is detected, in fractions of seconds the front seat belts are reversibly Safety In an accident: restraint systems (standard). Mercedes-Benz ensures that the 3-point seat belts, belt tensioners, belt force limiters and airbags are all coordinated optimally to minimise any injuries. In addition to the high-strength bodyshell structure and the highly stable occupant cell, seven standard-fit airbags contribute towards Standard equipment includes windowbags over both rows of seats, airbags and sidebags for the front-seat occupants as well as a driver kneebag. optimum protection of the vehicle occupants: front airbags, which can be deployed in two stages, depending on the impact severity and accident characteristics, windowbags between the A- and C-pillars and sidebags for the driver and front passenger. The kneebag can further reduce the forces exerted on the driver during an accident. Sidebags are available on the left and right in the rear as an optional extra. If the crash sensors detect an accident, the seat belts are tensioned within a few milliseconds to secure the occupants in their seats. The belt force limiters, in turn, reduce the belt tension where appropriate in order to lessen the load on the thorax. After an accident: Mercedes-Benz emergency call system1 (part of COMAND Online). This system makes an emergency call automatically using a mobile phone which is on standby and connected to the vehicle as soon as the restraint system detects an accident. At the same time it communicates GPS positional data and other vehicle 1 Available over the entire operating life of the vehicle in 19 European countries. information to the Mercedes-Benz emergency call centre. A voice connection is then established. The emergency call system can also be triggered manually. Measures after an accident. In order to reduce consequential damage and, where necessary, to assist with the rescue of the occupants, Mercedes-Benz has developed further measures. These include the automatic engine cutoff or the activation of the hazard warning lamps and interior emergency illumination. The central locking also opens automatically and thus makes it easier to open the doors after an accident. Mercedes-Benz also provides multilingual rescue guidelines which emergency services can download online worldwide at www.mercedes-benz.de/rettungsleitfaden. As you can see, Mercedes-Benz offers well thought-out safety whatever the situation. 35 36 Multimedia systems. The A-Class offers a full range of entertainment systems, from the Audio 5 USB and the optional Audio 20 CD system with Becker® MAP PILOT to the optional COMAND Online multimedia system. COMAND Online (option). The multimedia system with hard-disc navigation system and a 17.8 cm high-resolution colour display with topographical map display. Further functions: display of BMP and PNG image formats, Music Register with a 10 GB hard disc, Cover Flow function and a DVD drive for video and audio DVDs, CDs and MP3 files. Via an internet-capable mobile phone the online browser enables access to the internet and to mobile services from Mercedes-Benz. Live Traffic Information1 enables the receipt of current and detailed traffic information in real time, for example. Data transmission is via a communications module which provides the internet connection thanks to an integral SIM card, including data roaming. A USB slot and a slot for SD memory cards plus a Bluetooth® interface are included. The system is controlled via an intuitively operated Controller and the buttons in the multifunction steering wheel. The LINGUATRONIC enables the COMAND Online to be operated via voice entry.

Audio 20 CD display and the multifunction display in the instrument cluster. 37 38 Assistance systems. Alongside numerous safety systems, various convenience assistance systems are available for the A-Class, too. They can provide timely warnings of potentially critical situations and so help the driver to avoid dangers. Reversing camera (option, in conjunction with Audio 20 CD or COMAND Online). The reversing camera with a wideangle lens and guide lines switches on when reverse gear is engaged and provides additional support for the driver by showing on the screen what is in the area directly behind the vehicle. Assist automatically parks the car at the press of a button. The driver then only needs to use the gearshift, the accelerator and brake pedal. Active Parking Assist deals with the steering on its own. The system works extremely precisely: for automatic parking, the parking space only has to be around one metre longer than the vehicle. Active Parking Assist, including PARKTRONIC (option). With Active Parking Assist on board, the vehicle looks for a suitable parking space by itself at a speed of up to 35 km/h. As soon as the driver confirms a suggested parking space and engages reverse gear, Active Parking Speed Limit Assist (part of the optional COMAND Online system). Speed Limit Assist uses a windscreen-mounted camera and navigation data to detect speed-limit signs and then display them as symbols on the instrument cluster. They remain displayed there until the speed restriction is During parking, the COMAND Online central display shows the area behind The display in the instrument cluster gives you a clear picture of what is The information from Speed Limit Assist is shown both in the instrument the car. happening during the current parking manoeuvre. cluster and in the COMAND Online central display. lifted or changed. To this end, the camera monitors the area in front of the car on a permanent basis. It can filter out round traffic signs, be they speed-limit signs at the side of the road or on a gantry above the road. Speed Limit Assist is especially helpful on routes with variable speed limits or road works. Comfort Light and climate control. The optionally available Light and Sight package underlines the safety standards in the A-Class and stylishly showcases the interior in darkness. The automatic climate control THERMOTRONIC contributes towards a pleasant interior climate. Light and Sight package (option). This package enhances safety and improves the driver’s perception of the traffic – in particular during darkness or in poor weather conditions – with features such as windscreen wipers fitted with a rain sensor and an enlarged washer fluid reservoir, exit and warning lamps for the driver’s and frontpassenger door, plus a warning and background lamp for the tailgate. Quite apart from the safety aspects, the integral ambient lighting in the door shells and door pulls lends the interior design of the A-Class an exclusive touch. In conjunction with sports seats the opening between the head restraint and the seat backrest is stylishly illumi- nated. This overall impression is enhanced by sun visors with an illuminated vanity mirror, an illuminated interior mirror, footwell lighting for the driver and front passenger and in the rear, illuminated door sill panels at the front, separately controllable reading lamps on both the left- and right-hand side in the rear – and by a downlighter for the rear compartment. The optionally available Light and Sight package highlights the interior design The optional automatic climate control THERMOTRONIC ensures pleasant to practical and stylish effect. interior temperatures. THERMOTRONIC (option). The automatic climate control THERMOTRONIC has separate temperature controls for each side of the interior, allowing the driver and front passenger to travel in comfort at the temperature of their choice. At the touch of a button the 2-zone system works fully automatically with an integral particulate matter activated charcoal filter to prevent dust, pollen and odours from entering the interior. At the back of the centre console there are also two air outlets for the rear compartment. THERMOTRONIC keeps the desired temperature constant and also takes exterior factors such as sunlight, air quality and humidity into account by means of sensors. This means that there is always a pleasant climate in the A-Class. 39 40 Seats. The seats are offered in three different variants, meeting individual requirements regarding ergonomics, seating comfort and safety.

The A-Class offers high levels of seating comfort for the rear passengers, too. Comfort Roof and space. The A-Class is impressively spacious for a vehicle in the compact class. The panoramic sliding sunroof lets lots of light in and ensures an even greater feeling of spaciousness. The load compartment offers plenty of room for luggage. Panoramic sliding sunroof (option). The panoramic sliding sunroof is an electrically operated glass sliding roof which slides over the exterior of the vehicle roof. The large, transparent surface offers a generous view and lets lots of light into the interior, creating a particularly light and friendly ambience. A roller blind operated by electric motor shields the occupants from bright sunlight. The wind deflectors with a net structure minimises the noise level when travelling with the roof open. If the optional Light and Sight package is specified, the roof closes automatically when it starts to rain. Load compartment. If required the rear seat backrests can be folded with a 1/3 : 2/3 split, giving a boot capacity of up to 1157 litres with a 1.24-metre-long virtually flat load compartment area.

The sports models impress with their expressive design and promise added dynamism thanks to AMG sports suspension that has been developed in-house and features a specific front axle. For special driving dynamics the A-Class is available as the sports model A 250 Sport and as the A 250 Sport 4MATIC all-wheel-drive variant. Both models have AMG sports suspension – featuring a specific front axle and sporty engine and transmission tuning – developed by the specialists at Mercedes-AMG. The further equipment is based on the AMG Line design and equipment line, supplemented by other exterior and interior features. These include the striking diamond radiator grille and the characteristic red trim on the AMG front and rear apron plus the red highlight rings in the headlamps. The athletic look is enhanced by the 5-spoke AMG light-alloy wheels which are painted black with a high-sheen finish and shod with 235/40 R 18 tyres. The perforated brake discs at the front, the red brake callipers at the front and rear plus the sporty engine sound lend the sports models an air of pure dynamism. The two-pipe exhaust system with oval tailpipe trim in polished stainless steel and the “SPORT” badges on the front wings complete the look. An exceptional character and powerful dynamics, combined in the A 250 Sport. Model variants The sports models impress with characteristic features in the interior, too. This is due in the main to the sports seats with upholstery in ARTICO man-made leather/DINAMICA microfibre with red contrasting topstitching plus the matching red 3-point seat belts. AMG performance seats are optionally available. Further hallmark highlights in the sports models include the red rings on the air outlets and in the red needles on the sporty instrument cluster. The 3-spoke multifunction steering wheel is finished in leather and has red contrasting topstitching, as do the armrests in the centre console and the doors. The door centre panels are trimmed in black DINAMICA microfibre, and the trim sports a carbon fibre look. The dynamic impression is accentuated by the sports pedals in brushed stainless steel with rubber studs and front door sill panels in aluminium. In addition to this, cord floor mats with black piping, red contrasting topstitching and “SPORT” lettering are also part of the sports models’ host of equipment. The sports seats in ARTICO man-made leather/DINAMICA microfibre upholstery with red contrasting topstitching. 43 44 A 45 AMG 4MATIC exterior. Visibly more powerful: the exterior of the A 45 AMG 4MATIC clearly shows that its roots lie in Affalterbach. Examples of these cues are the AMG light-alloy wheels plus the AMG sports exhaust system, and above all the front and rear apron featuring an AMG design. → www.mercedes-amg.com Sportiness as far as the eye can see: the AMG front apron with black flics and the AMG radiator grille with a twin louvre move impressively into view. Elements painted in matt titanium grey in the front and rear apron plus side sill panels lend the dynamic design of the vehicle an ad­di­ tion­al athletic touch. An equally powerful impression is made by the AMG 5-twin-spoke light-alloy wheels painted in titanium grey with a high-sheen finish. With its uncompromisingly sporty character it has clearly earned the “TURBO AMG” lettering on the wings. As most people only ever see it from behind, the A 45 AMG is impressive there, too – thanks to the AMG sports exhaust system with its specific AMG tailpipe trim design. The two-pipe AMG sports exhaust system and AMG-design rear apron. The “TURBO AMG” lettering marks it out as a truly top athlete. Optional: AMG wheel bolt cover and red-painted brake callipers. AMG 45 46 A 45 AMG 4MATIC interior. An athlete through and through on the inside, too: the interior of the A 45 AMG 4MATIC is more of a cockpit than a driver’s compartment. This is thanks to the sports seats with their red topstitching plus red belts – but also the AMG-specific design of the instrument cluster. Enter the world of motorsport in fitting style – through the driver’s door. AMG door sill panels announce the sporty nature of the interior. The AMG DRIVE UNIT offers direct access to the transmission modes. Thanks to the AMG instrument cluster with its AMG main menu, including Racetimer and the AMG start-up indicator, you always have a good view of everything – and with the 3-spoke sports steering wheel with the flattened bottom section and shift paddles you have a good grip on everything, too. Sports seats in ARTICO man-made leather/DINAMICA microfibre with red topstitching provide optimum support, even when taking sharp bends. Red seat belts and rings for the ventilation outlets complete the sporty interior. The AMG instrument cluster and the air nozzles with red surrounds inject sportiness into the cockpit. 47 48 A 45 AMG 4MATIC technology. For AMG, sport goes hand-in-hand with record-breaking: The AMG 2.0-litre turbo-charged engine is the world’s most powerful series production 4-cylinder engine. Further AMG technology helps to transfer that power to the road in a most impressive manner. AMG 2.0-litre 4-cylinder turbocharged engine. A true power pack: with 450 Nm and 265 kW (360 hp) the 2-litre turbocharged unit is the world’s most powerful seriesproduced 4-cylinder engine. It achieves 181 hp per litre of displacement - made possible by highly precise piezo injectors, a twin-scroll turbocharger, forged pistons and crankshaft plus the experience gained from 45 years of AMG motorsport. At the same time its combined consumption in the A 45 AMG is just 6.9 litres per 100 km – for these output values an unparalleled result – thanks in part to the ECO start/stop function. The high-performance engine is built entirely by hand based on the traditional AMG “one man, one engine” philosophy – which is clearly evident on the AMG engine badge bearing the signature of the AMG technician responsible. AMG high-performance braking system. The fastest one standing wins. This is why the A 45 AMG boasts internally ventilated and perforated brake discs, which release more braking energy. The front discs measure an impressive 350 x 32 mm and have a 4-piston fixed calliper, while the rear axle has 330 x 22 mm discs with a 1-piston floating calliper that brings the vehicle to a standstill faster. Everything that is needed to keep the vehicle’s impressive power under control at all times. The centre of power: the AMG 2.0-litre 4-cylinder turbocharged engine. AMG SPEEDSHIFT DCT 7-speed sports transmission. The incredible power of the AMG engine is optimally transformed into propulsion by the sports transmission. It offers rapid gear shifting without interruptions to tractive power, with shift times like those in the SLS AMG GT, plus three differently tuned transmission modes (C, S and M). A Racestart function, partial cylinder shut-off when upshifting and the double-declutching function when downshifting create a racing feel and a motorsport-inspired sound experience. AMG AMG performance 4MATIC all-wheel drive system. 450 Nm of torque are delivered precisely where needed in the A 45 AMG: to the road. This happens courtesy of a fully variable, performance-oriented all-wheel-drive system, which – with its AMG-specific electrohydraulic control – ensures optimum traction and thus transforms the unfettered force into dynamic propulsion. AMG speed-sensitive sports steering and AMG sports suspension. In combination with the AMG sports suspension and the front and rear axles specially developed for the A 45 AMG, the electromechanical AMG speed-sensitive sports steering offers high steering precision plus agile handling – for sporty driving pleasure. Autonomous steering knuckles at the front with AMG-specific elastokinematics increase dynamism thanks to stiffer axle bearings. 49 50 AMG Performance Studio. An incomparable AMG vehicle becomes a one-off specimen in the AMG Performance Studio. Lend your vehicle a totally individual style which underlines its dynamic and sporty character.

And there are always the genuine accessories from Mercedes-Benz. → www.mercedes-benz-accessories.com As if the A-Class didn’t already make you mobile enough, the rear-mounted cycle rack gives you even more freedom as it can be used to carry two or three bikes with ease, even if the bikes themselves are quite heavy: each cycle rail has a payload of 30 kg, so most e-bikes can be transported with no problem at all. There is no problem opening the boot either: access to luggage is still possible thanks to an ingenious roller mechanism. When not in use, the rack folds easily and can be stowed in the boot, for example. Folding rear-mounted cycle rack for trailer couplings. Equipment and appointments A further practical feature is the 400 roof box.
