Are you young enough to own a Mercedes-Benz AMG model? You are now!
For the first time in the company’s history, Mercedes-Benz’s performance brand is offering two high-performance cars powered by a four-cylinder engine. Both models provide an exciting introduction to the world of AMG. With an output of 265 kW and a peak torque of 450 N.m, the AMG 2.0-litre turbo engine is the world’s most powerful four-cylinder engine in series production.
The high output and torque coupled with the all-wheel drive fitted as standard make for extremely dynamic performance: both the A45 AMG and the CLA45 AMG complete the sprint from 0 to 100 km/h in 4.6 seconds and have a top speed of 250 km/h. With a fuel consumption of 6.9 litres per 100 kilometres, these high-performance cars are exceptionally efficient and lead the way in their segments.
With ages ranging between 30 and the mid-40s, the A45 AMG and CLA45 AMG target groups are younger than the previous AMG customers.
Mercedes-AMG adds emphatically sporty and muscular highlights to the exterior design of the new Mercedes-Benz A-Class sporting the new dynamic style, a sculptural character and feature lines on the sides. These refinements ensure that the A 45 AMG looks the part as a distinctive high- performance car.
Both models come as standard with AMG twin-spoke alloy wheels, painted titanium grey with a high-sheen finish. The AMG speed-sensitive sports steering with AMG-specific, speed-sensitive power assist enables high steering precision and agility. The AMG high-performance braking system with vented and cross-drilled brake discs all round provides for spontaneous and reliable deceleration.
The A 45 AMG and CLA 45 AMG comes standard with the class-leading PremiumDrive 6-years/100 000 maintenance plan:
A 45 AMG: R 629 900
CLA 45 AMG: R708 600
