The Next Generation A-Class; what can we expect?

Dec 11, 2017 | Blog|Uncategorised

The A-Class already carried the flag of a youthful brand image for Mercedes-Benz this year, however, in the next 12 months the car will now move into a luxurious new design whilst keeping its youthful roots.

As they say, the devil is in the detail, and the 2018 A-Class will be exactly that; detail. You can expect sleek design, upgraded gadgets, more shoulder room and headroom, 29 more litres of capacity in the boot and an extremely high-tech cockpit. This is modern-day driving as its best.

Highlights of the new A-Class include;

  • Standard widescreen cockpit (double display)
  • No cockpit cowl (cover) above the instruments (completely free-standing screen)
  • Optional ambiance illumination in 64 colour, including the staging of the air vents
  • Trim parts in genuine wood (open-pored)
  • Steering wheel generation from the S-Class
  • Front seats with climate control and massage function
  • Around 10 percent improved all-round visibility
  • More shoulder room, elbow width and headroom
  • 29 litres more capacity of the trunk, 20 cm wider charging opening
  • Enlarged stowage space in centre console and in door trim

The interior has an a greatly enhanced feeling of spaciousness with better all-round visibility. The new look will include new sporty turbine-look air vents, a multifunctional steering wheel inspired by the S-Class and optional massage seats.

The main attraction of the new interior is the free-standing widescreen cockpit which unlike other models, has no cowls above it.
