Mercedes-Benz A-Class sedan priced from $45K

Two new sedan variants arrive in Australia, joining existing A-Class hatch

Australian pricing and specification details for the new Mercedes-Benz A-Class sedan have been announced.

Joining the new Mercedes-Benz A-Class hatchback, the all-new A-Class sedan will be available initially as just one model variant in Australia, the A 200, before being joined by at least three other grades later in the year.

To be joined by the mechanically similar second-generation Mercedes-Benz CLA-Class four-door ‘coupe’ in the third quarter of this year, the first A-Class sedan is 130mm longer and sits 6mm higher than the A-Class hatch, which was launched in Australia last year.

Kicking off the line-up initially is the Mercedes-Benz A 200 sedan, priced from $49,400 (plus on-road costs) – a circa $2000 premium over the existing hatch. It will be joined by a more affordable A 180 hatch from August, priced from $44,900 plus on-road costs.

Both cars utilise a 1.3-litre turbo-petrol four-cylinder, the A 180 offering 100kW/200Nm outputs and the A 200 with 120kW/250Nm outputs. Fuel use is rated the same, at 5.7L/100km combined.

Beginning with the entry-level A 180, standard feature includes the same sprawling MBUX infotainment system used in the A-Class hatch, comprising two 10.25-inch digital screens, digital radio, a nine-speaker audio system with 225-Watt output, 17-inch alloy wheels, ‘Comfort’ seats in ARTICO upholstery, climate control, smartphone integration, keyless start, and the ‘Style’ equipment line featuring the distinctive ‘diamond’ radiator grille.

Standard safety features include Active Parking Assist (with PARKTRONIC), Active Lane Keep Assist, Active Brake Assist, Traffic Sign Assist, Blind Spot Assist with exit warning, front and rear parking sensors, a reversing camera, electronically folding exterior mirrors, and the PRE-SAFE accident anticipatory system.

In specification terms, the higher-specced A 200 adds 18-inch alloy wheels, ‘Progressive’ exterior design cues and interior styling, a two-pipe chrome-tipped exhaust system, four-way electro-pneumatic lumbar support for the driver’s seat, a folding rear armrest, adaptive highbeam assist, and wireless charging for eligible smartphones.

Mercedes-Benz has confirmed both variants will be joined by the A 250 sedan and Mercedes-AMG A 35 sedan later in the year.

The sedan models feature boot space of 430 litres, an increase of 60 litres over the corresponding hatchback models (with the rear seats in place), including a 950mm wide boot opening for easy loading and unloading of larger items.
