New Mercedes-Benz A-class to be launched in India on 8th Dec

Mercedes promised to deliver 15 new products in India by the end of the year, and they’ll soon deliver with the launch of the New Mercedes-Benz A class. Although the A-class we will see on the 8th of December is a facelift, thus not exactly ‘new’, we do get some worthwhile changes. There will be optional LED headlamps, a new front bumper, LED tail lamps, a diamond grille and new exhaust tips at the rear. A notable new addition is Apple Carplay compatibility for iPhone users and Mirrorlink for other phones that support it. Engines are carried over from the previous model: the 2.2l diesel in the 200 CDI and the 1.6l petrol in the 180 Sport, both utilising a 7-speed dual-clutch gearbox.

But you’re probably wondering about this wild green colour. Mercedes has confirmed that the facelifted A-class will be available in this shade among others, but could not confirm the timing of its availability. More news next week.
