The third-generation A-Class in September 2012 in the trade.
The compact premium segment worldwide is becoming increasingly important with the new 2013 Mercedes A-class would like to get involved properly in this segment from autumn 2012 and presents a completely new A-Class.
The engineers had the opportunity to work with a blank sheet of paper in the planning of the 3rd Going generation A-Class. This should be the new A-class in any case be very different than the predecessors to appeal to a wider audience.
The second generation Mercedes could reach rather more staid term especially with the new A-Class you would like to make Audi A3, BMW 1 Series and the new Volvo V40 alienate customers.
Mercedes says that it is serious about his challenge, you can see at first glance. A fully styled by A-class Mercedes for going with unusual athleticism to the starting line was born.
To continue to provide for any potential buyer a suitable A-class model, we have also created various equipment lines. With the lines of "Urban", "style" and "AMG Sport" and the three design packages ("Night", "exclusive" and "exclusive AMG", the new A-Class can have from the start, make very individual.
In addition, numerous options are available, the cars are so far only been available gehobenerer classes, such as an adaptive cruise control, PreSafe, the Intelligent Light System or electrically adjustable leather seats with memory.
Comprehensive safety features round out the positive first impression for the new A-Class continues to decrease. As standard, the Collision Prevention and Attention Assist Assist provide more security. The Collision Prevention Assist warns the driver may be distracted from obstacles and prepares the brake system even for emergency braking.
This can score the new 2013 A-Class not only looks at the young, strong purchasing power target group, is to sell it a full iPhone integration, where you hear his music from the phone in the car, facebook news, the phone on the vehicle display can use. A version for Android is already in the pipeline, but will still have something coming.
To start, there will be 1.6 to 2.0 liter gasoline engine with an output between 122 hp (90 kW) and 211 hp (155 kW) and 1.5 liters to 1.8 liters of diesel engines with an output of 109 hp (80 kW ) provide up to 136 hp (100 kW). The 170-hp diesel will follow at the end of the year.
All engines have the BlueEFFICIENCY technology and are extremely economical way. The best value achieved while the base diesel with 109 hp, which is to come to a consumption of just 3.8 liters. The CO2 emissions in this case is only 98 g / km.
On request for the new A-Class instead of the 6-speed manual gearbox, the new 7G-DCT dual-clutch gearbox, which is equipped with the software from the SLS AMG, and so provides lightning fast gear changes. In a first exit we could have the A 220 CDI with its 170-horsepower diesels and the top model in the preliminary series, the A250, get to know.
As sporty looks, the new A-class outside so athletic, it also goes further in the interior. The test vehicles are AMG sports seats, sports trim with comfortable including integrated headrests, a generous use of carbon-look trim components and soft-touch surfaces.
Which now provides built-in automatic selector lever on the steering column for the double-clutch gearbox in place of the center console, which will find a very comfortable center armrest and two cupholders and a large locker room.
Despite the sporty body design, there is enough room inside for passengers. Also, the trunk volume is 341 liters with dimensions remarkably abundant.
For frequent travelers, the new A 220 CDI presents an ideal companion, who can convince a lot of power from low engine speeds and the 7G-DCT gearbox. The sporty design of suspension and chassis should be chosen only by real sports fanatics, comfort-oriented buyers will have at the very sporty design no joy.
In addition, this chassis fits clearly better for the A250, the strongest start to the A-Class model. With an output of 211 hp, the A250 convince even die-hard sports fans. The sprint from 0 to 100 km / h in 6.6 seconds and top speed is 240 km / h
On a handling course at the airport in Portoroz we were able to convince us of the excellent chassis. The A250 sports a front-wheel drive vehicle allows for breathtaking cornering speeds and remains even in extreme cases, even well predictable and controllable.
The maximum torque of 350 Nm is already available at 1,200 r / min and maintained up to 4000 rev / min.
But the new A-Class is only at the beginning of a true model initiative of the smallest Mercedes model. As early as the beginning of 2013 will come with the A45 AMG A-Class, the sportiest of all time on the market, which will also feature four-wheel drive. A little later, then follow other forms of bodywork based on the new 2013 Mercedes A-Class.
