CrimsonVertigo 1st Gear July 26, 2018 Share July 26, 2018 The new A-class sedan will be positioned slightly below the CLA, which will get another generation next year and whose swoopy styling means it’s classified by Mercedes as a four-door coupe. While the new CLA is likely to be closer dimensionally, for comparison’s sake the current version of that car is 3.2 inches longer than the 2019 A-class sedan, yet the latter offers greater interior room. The US version's A220 sedan peaks at 188 horses and 221 lb-ft from its turbocharged 2.0-liter inline-four, versus 208 horsepower and 258 lb-ft for today’s CLA250. https://www.caranddriver.com/news/2019-mercedes-benz-a-class-sedan-the-first-of-a-new-generation-of-baby-benzes-official-photos-and-info Mercedes has confirmed that the A-Class saloon will be offered with just two engines when it goes on sale, although further units are planned once production is ramped up. The launch options are a turbocharged 1.3-litre four-cylinder petrol engine with 161bhp and 184lb ft (badged A200) and a 1.5-litre four-cylinder diesel with 114bhp and 192lb ft (badged A180d). https://www.autocar.co.uk/car-news/new-cars/new-mercedes-benz-class-saloon-rival-four-door-audi-a3 ↡ Advertisement 5 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lava 5th Gear July 26, 2018 Share July 26, 2018 Interesting! Keen to know the price. Civic etc will have fierce competition is there any comparison between civic and merc A? I think they are in different class between the 2 brand. Honda is positioning at b&b cat and merc is mid to upper cat, as such there is no comparison between the 2 brand. both cars will have it own set of buyer depending on your budget. 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

DACH Supersonic July 26, 2018 Share July 26, 2018 Interesting! Keen to know the price. Civic etc will have fierce competition Price wise I believe will be competitive. But space wise, I don't think will be as roomy as the Civic. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have my arguments. Some people regard a sedan as ... A sedan. So price and face value come into the picture. That's what I meant. A civic ain't exactly a comfortable family car to begin with. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

StingerGT 5th Gear July 28, 2018 Share July 28, 2018 Look good on photos. But I think in actual real life, proportions of the car may look weird or more cartoonish. The CLA is already so compact. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
