Mercedes-Benz A-class Hatchback FAQs

Being a performance-focused model, the AMG A 45 S has low-profile tyres and stiff springs, which make for a very firm ride that crashes over sharp bumps.

Due to its firm ride, single-digit fuel efficiency, and low ground clearance, the AMG A 45 S isn't ideal for everyday driving in Indian road conditions. 

Since the AMG A45 S rides quite low to the ground, large speed breakers can be taken care of, but slowly and carefully.

Practicality on the A-Class is decent, with a 370-litre boot which can store a fair amount of luggage. 

The rear seats in the A-Class hatchback are placed low, leading to a lack of underthigh support, and foot space is limited; thus, the rear seat experience of the A-Class hatchback is cumbersome.

In our real-world testing, the AMG A 45 S hatchback achieved a 0-100kph time of 4.17 seconds and a top speed of 278kph.

I’m considering whether to buy a used car or a new car after driving my current vehicle for 10 more years. I’m thinking about getting a BMW or Audi hatchback in good condition. What are your thoughts?

You will not find many used BMW and Audi cars (hatchbacks) in India because very few were ever sold.BMW did offer the 1 Series hatchback for a short time, but the numbers were still limited.Instead, it’s better to explore their small SUVs like the Audi Q3 and the BMW X1. If you are open to Mercedes-Benz cars, you can also check the A-Class or B-Class hatchbacks, though these too are rare, or consider the Mercedes GLA. When buying a premium used car, though, make sure you buy from the brand itself, as they all have an approved used program. You can also buy one from a very reputable reseller, and if things go wrong, it can be very expensive to fix.
