BMW better watch their back because they have a proper competitor for the 1 Series. We are talking about the new concept for the A-Classe from Mercedes-Benz, a compact hatch, not the well build monovolume that Mercedes had always designed the A-Classe to be.
The sportiness trend defined by a big grille is also present in the A-Classe. This is not commonly found on compact cars and in this case it it visible that the heritage from the SLS had a big impact. With this aggressive look defined by the front bumper, headlights, the fans of Audi A3 and BMW 1 Series should consider the A-Classe from Mercedes also.
The back of the Mercedes-Benz A-Classe Concept also inspires aggressiveness but in a mannered way. The back-lights give the care the serious attitude that it needs while the hexagonal double exhaust offer a very visible effect.
One feature that we liked a lot were the rims. Modeled just like the pales of a jet turbine, the rims are seriously contributing to the general desired image of this concept.
The interior offers a clean, minimalistic approach, with a lot of digital controls, lighted up by a splendid, red light back color, just enough to give the interior a classy and muscular look.
A big rotary button is present on the central dashboard, which is a sign that there is a complex multimedia system installed in the vehicle. Even though the chassis is a coupe, the trunk offers a lot of space just like you would see in a hatchback.
For propulsion, Mercedes-Benz A-Class Concept is relying on the new Mercedes platform, named MFA (Mercedes Front-wheel-drive Architecture), under the hood of this concept there are 210HP obtained from a 2,0 liter, 4 cylinder-engine. This kind of power is available by the use of a turbo compressor on a direct fuel injection engine and an automatic transmission.
The series model of the Mercedes-Benz A-Classe is expected to be released next year, in no less than 4 variants.
