Mercedes Benz A-class can be had in the price range of Rs 29.9 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi) and it features a stylish combination of new-age exteriors and interiors. The design follows the very characteristic Mercedes style and the features like low slung nose, three-star grill, attractive wheels, and dynamic rear give the A-class a certain age over the rivals. Interiors are very premium and the space available is also good for seating 5 persons in comfort. Under the Hood, there is a 1.6-liter petrol engine and a 2.0-liter diesel engine putting out a maximum power of 122PS and 136PS respectively. Both these Motors come mated to 7- speed automatic transmission which sends the power to the front Wheels of the car.
