SPY PICS: A-Class facelifted for 2009
Cosmetic changes to coincide with hybrid and Bluetec drivetrains?Mercedes-Benz is putting the squeeze on its entire product range for lower emissions and reduced fuel consumption. That's why the German manufacturer is said to be considering hybrid drive and Bluetec diesel systems for the facelifted A-Class, pictured here by X-ray-eye spy photographers, Carparazzi.
We consider the possibility that MB will specify hybrid and Bluetec for the upgraded A-Class a bit of a 'cold reading' -- in clairvoyant terms. It's in the same class as the "you will meet a tall, dark stranger" kind of prediction... Pretty likely to happen, in other words.
At any rate, Carparazzi advises that the new A-Class will be launched at the Paris Motor Show in October next year and will feature revised tail light and headlight design, a more angular grille, redesigned front apron and bumpers.
