The Mercedes A-Class is a mini MPV first produced by Mercedes-Benz in 1997, and is the UK’s entry-level Mercedes model. Since its first production, the A-Class has grown in popularity within the UK market, becoming one of the most popular Mercedes models. Previously only released within Europe, the next Mercedes A-Class will see the car’s debut entry into the U.S. market.

Currently in its second generation, a new third generation A-Class is planned for release at the end of 2012 to celebrate the 125th anniversary of the car. The car will be based on the new Mercedes Front Architecture (MFA) platform, which will underpin all forthcoming Mercedes front-wheel drive cars. The German luxury car giant plans to rival the BMW 1-Series and Audi A3 with the new A-Class, which is turning into a high-quality, sporty model, a world apart from the boxy styling of the previous two generations.

The car will come with collision prevention assistance as standard, which warns the driver and automatically applies the brakes, should an obstacle or accident be impending. The quality of the new A-Class will be more in line with the current C-Class, with emphasis of the interior quality as well as the fit and finish.

The new Mercedes A Class will be powered by a turbocharged 2.0 litre four-cylinder engine which will produce 210bhp. A diesel version will be powered by a 2.2 litre four-cylinder engine with power ranging from 130 to 180 bhp. Also planned for the future is a 320bhp AMG hot hatch version, which is due for release in 2013 and is set to challenge the new Audi S3.The car will come with collision prevention assistance as standard, which warns the driver and automatically applies the brakes, should an obstacle or accident be impending.
