With the A 45 AMG, Mercedes-AMG enters onto a new platform. Being the first vehicle rolled out of the Next Generation of Compact Cars, the emphasis is, naturally, on power and dynamics, but also focuses on technology, media, and STYLE.

Toting the most powerful series production four-cylinder engine in the world, the high power and torque output combined with the performance-oriented AMG 4MATIC all-wheel drive lead to extremely dynamic performance: the A 45 AMG accelerates from zero to 100 km/h in 4.6 seconds, while its top speed stands at 250 km/h (electronically limited).

"Does it make you smile?" With the A 45 AMG, the answer is a given. Placed upon a suspension that begs for pushing hard into the corners, it's packed with responsive steering and AMG performance brakes that allow this to be done while under masterful control. Embrace the dynamics!

Mercedes-AMG adds emphatically sporty and muscular highlights to the emotional exterior design of the new Mercedes-Benz A-Class sporting the new dynamic style, sculptural character and feature lines on the sides. These refinements ensure that the A 45 AMG looks the part as a distinctive high-performance automobile – a genuine AMG through and through.

Carbon fiber. Leather. Reverse stitching. AMG Sports Seats that hug you through every corner. A display that is the size of a tablet. And that ridiculously cool AMG logo embossed on the center console gear shift. We know what you're thinking – and you are correct: this IS cool.
