2019 Mercedes-Benz A Class (ENG)
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 8 июл 2024
- 2019 Mercedes-Benz A Class is the fourth generation of the popular compact model from Stuttgart. The new A Class is packed full of technologies, like semi-autonomous driving or the new MBUX infotainment system, which features artificial intelligence. Sat nav offers augmented reality. Clearly, someone in Stuttgart must have realised unless younger people start driving cars with a star on the bonnet, Mercedes will have to start making mobility scooters.

I have been interested in cars from the age of 15. I'm now 61. But this car interior is by far the best I have ever seen. It's more than a match against any Audi. 64 choices in interior lighting, nice.
what was your first ever car
I would be far more impressed if we were talking about material quality and not lighting choices as even a very cheap car can have it.
My first car if anyone is interested J reg Ford Escort (UK). I think J stood for 1992. It was very old by the time i had it and was quite rusty.
The more I see this car, the more I like it.
Me as well, never thought I'd like how it looks
its an awsome car i have a brand new A200 i love it
Exactly
Open a door. Feels like a piece of tin.
Same here
Thanks for the time and effort, Marek. Great review as always. Drive safe!
Love your honesty!
Good and honest review. After seing so many reviews I'd love to hear peoples opinions after one, two, three, four years.
I just ordered an A250 here in Canada, cannot wait!
one of the best looking interior s iv ever seen in a small car wow!
Just discovered your channel Marek. I like your review 👍😎
love your videos mate you are the best and so underrated
I'm getting this car!!! or the A250 one... Sooo excited!
Thanks Marek, you've convinced me, that's my next car
Very good review!
you have the best car reviews ever, marek!
One of the best videos i’ve seen on this car, thanks! First time watching your videos btw
I appreciate that!
Gracias. Muy buena presentación. Felicidades!
I remember that you was very fond of the Cla, now there will be a long version of A and a new Cla, waiting for your reviews!
Great great car! Great test
Head Up Display, 1370eur in my country. Those seats with massage costs about 1000eur as well. 360deg parking camera is 500eur. So the car specced in the review videos around in youtube will be quite expensive. I still might consider the car, but will remove some of the most expensive extras.
Just got my A200 Sport ehat a car. Looks great, superb performance inside the car is fantastic. A wonderful car in Jupiter Red.
Did u get the basic sport? Or sport premium? Did you get all the gadgets in the video?
I’m hoping to get one when released in Australia. This is the first time I’ve seen the “tell me a joke” demo. Cheers!
You got one yet bud? Im buying one in April or a bit later (depending on 2020 model release date). Keen to get opinions on personal experience .
As usual i love Marek tests! In some way i guess my A180 petrol 1.6 (122HP) is more economic...
The previous model rear light is nicer than the latest one. the rest is beautiful especially the interior
Zawsze oglądam w obydwu językach.
ZAWSZE.
Love it, want it.
superb!!
Beautiful..
Pick up my a class 108d amg premium saloon tomorrow 😊👍
Huge step up from the old one
merci
I love it
Mooie auto
The interior is amazing. The design of the headlights remind me too much of an Audi and the engine is just okay but if I had the money, it would be the perfect car for me.
The 250 has 224hp.. thats pretty quick
I love my a250 edition 1
Actually concerning the headlights, between the basic alogen lamps and the top multibeam, there are the full led ones.
Will the new CLA have this interior too?
Ordered an AMG Line Premium today - should have it mid January. Love it.
DrewG75 2-3 week build time? Wow
How is it
How is it
Ordered A250 AMG Line 2 weeks ago (y)
What a beautiful car but i still love my BMW 118i
It looks money is the best description
I don't get complaining about the engine sound of an A class. It's an entry level Mercedes and you want an E class AMG engine.
What's the difference with the a180 amg and a180 amg executive. Is it worth the upgrade and why?
Stylish interior
Well done Marek, i was waiting for this next friday! Anyway, great looking car, worst ever interior room comparing to the dimensions, but who cares..People desire these driving computers these days, but in my opinion, they cannot understand the unreliability issues that will occur in the future. And the cost to repair. Let alone the potentian danger 'cause of the internet connection..
2:30 One day we will all switch to USB-C and the world will be a wonderful place again 🙂
I hope they bring it to Indonesia soon
i am watching this car very closely , love the looks and tech, and im not young lol
The bmw 1 Series really have to step it up
awsome
AMAZING REVIEW GOOD ENGLISH LOVE IT MAN AM GOING TO BUY ONE I PREFER THE 1.3 BUT I WANT TO TEST DRIVE THE 2.0 LITRES PETROL FIRST TO SEE THE DIFFERENCE
I’ll wait for the gla refresh
ram64man With all this spec and 4Matic that would be at least 60K Euros
i can't decide between this and the volvo xc40. any help?
Thanks so much for the review. Good job! Can you please do a review of a the new 4th generation Audi A3. Thanks a lot
Unfortunately Audi Poland deems me unworthy of reviewing their cars.
@@MarekDrives ah that is so sad. I hope they come to their senses. Thanks for the reply :)
My new car in one week!! Cannot wait anymore 😱
Congrats!
@@MarekDrives thanks
Am pleasantly surprised to see USB-C ports in a car. And it’s a Mercedes. 👍
I dont hold the hight getting in the back againt the 200 because lets be fare if ur tall ur going to struggle getting in the back of most smallish family cars
I started off looking at the basic models . And walked out with the premium plus 😅😅🤦🤦
Here you enter into the a Klass (front seat) like a crab and it’s fine!! Not like in the X2 went you try to go in and out facing the exterior / interior
well done
Shame you cannot get the 2.2d anymore. Just the weedy renault clio engine. :-(
Imaging how the facelifted version will be
LOVE IT but i want to see the black one.
Love it, but a properly set up car will be way too expensive.
That's been the case since forever :-) That's even the case with cheap brands like Kia, let alone Mercedes. However, a decently trimmed A Class costs liltle more than the similiar Renault, Toyota, Volkswagen, etc.
Can we have the review where we can see the interior in depth like how the sunroof works like?
I'm sorry, but I don't do those.
the MBUX system is soooo good! you will never want to look at the traditional dashboard on Audi or Bmw
Build quality is not good and electric windows are not as good as Audi.
@@AH-hz5xc Audi engine burns oil, do you want one?
Fuel consumption?
Hope there will be a review about the new c class coupé
In 3-4 months.
Watching this review with pleasure, thanks. Where is a gear selector and wiper control located?
Stalks left and right, like in all Mercedes.
Not familiar with Mercedes controls at all, thus asking....Its seems unusual compared to other brands.....
It goes back a long time. Lights are a knob above your left knee (not unusual, Opel Kadett had that), indicators and wipers are on the left stalk (like in many 1990s American cars), and automatic gear lever is the right stalk. You get used to it pretty quickly, but switching cars you'll find yourself putting the wipers on, because you want to put the car in gear :)
Older models had a second left stalk for cruise control, and that was a pain in the ass, because you couldn't see it, but you could touch it with your knee. Now cruise control is on the steering wheel, where it should be.
Getting rid of the manual shifter frees up space on the centre console, so you can have that large touchpad. In the previous generation there was just a deep hole (a large bottle could fit) in the automatic models.
Prior to this video, apart from the amazing interior, every example of the new A class I’ve seen on RUclips have looked underwhelming exterior wise. However this A200 in white with the AMG body styling pack looks fantastic. Goes to show how easy it is to spec a car (in this instance) to look good, yet very easy to spec the same car to look rubbish. Interesting to see how much it would cost to spec an example to look the same as the white A200 in this video?
This was a press launch, so we don't always get exact pricing, but as a rule of thumb in the premium segment pick the engine version you want, and add 30-50 percent to the base price. That's without being extravagant.
Interior is beautiful. I'll prob get 2019 C class instead though.
Happy new year Marek! Mercedes A class, BMW 1 series or the new Audi A3? Any help
Hi, happy new year!
Disclaimer: Audi's not talking to me. The last A3 I drove was a sedan 8 years ago, and I thought it was brilliant. Assuming it still is like the whatever is the current generation Golf, I'd be worried about the user interface.
Speaking of the user interface, I really like what Mercedes has done with the MBUX, but the overall quality of the compact Mercs I tested in recent years was a mixed bag.
Which leaves us with BMW, which still has the BMW OS7, is relatively fun to drive despite being FWD, but I recall it being quite poorly soundproofed.
TBH, I'd skip the entry premium hatchbacks/sedans, and step up to the minivans. The B Class and the 2 Series are brilliant cars.
What about gasoline consumption? Any ideia of the averange in the test? Thanks!
This is a first drive. Too early to say. I think we got around 6-7L/100km, but that's not on "my roads".
16:18 are you sure the car you drove had twist beam? Did you look underneath? On the Benz website there is a photo of "AMG ride control" with a multi-link rear axle compared to the twist beam of the standard.
I must say the sat nav camera with the live feed image instructions was impressive, the rest of the car less so, but then again I am 49 and Mercedes are not aiming there brand at me, I think of quality as how good something is where you can't see. Putting 200 badges on a 1.3 just makes me wonder what other corners are they cutting.
I didn't look underneath. AFAIK it's multi-link for A250, twist-beam for A200/A180d. I'll check the configurator later on.
You may be right. Halfway through configuration a pop-up appeared that the car will have rear suspension upgraded to multi-link as part of whatever package. By now I'm about 40% above the base model price, and nowhere close to finished configuring the car :)
Dzieki, as you may tell I am becoming rather cynical. I have a leased Golf MK 7 GTD and VW are little better, it is coming up for replacement and VW in the UK charge inflated prices for options on the Golf compared to other VAG group cars. VW may lose a customer but I don't think It will be to Mercedes.
Every review I've seen people seem pretty impressed by how well the a class drives.....not a fan of the hatchback...sedan maybe, but if they integrate this whole tech upgrade in the suv glc (which as a young lady, is my personal favourite size for various reasons), I would be quite pleased...(maybe they could make the glc exterior a bit better too)...but this A class in the sedan version is tempting..very
I want this car!!
with Start_Stop system?
TheMr1Boy fwd is cool......
Do all cars with premium plus package come with the Augmented Reality Sat Nav?
I don't know what the Premium Plus Package is. That may vary from market to market.
I like the 'old' front better.
Mercedes finally give in and accept the touch screen 😂😂
What about this screen cocpit? It seem that on sunny day it reflects sunlight.
That's bound to happen in any car. A couple of months ago I had a rental Mitsubishi Lancer, and when the sun was at the rihgt height, I couldn't see the analogue dials.
I wonder if Marek knew that at the time of this review that MB had no intentions on bringing the 4door hatchback version of the A-class to North America.
Why would it? Was the previous A Class offered in the US?
i like that car too much but what is the price
If i am correct, you are 175CM, or 5'7". Therefore, I thank you for showing us the rear, which is only good for 5'7" and under. Very cool car (for singles or 2) and review, but obviously limited IN SPACE.
Yes, that's about 5'7". This is a compact car, so it's either the only car for DINKS or a second car for a family of 2+1.
Thank you.
Waiting for a new video A250e 2023yr
How much! lol just to say your in a Merc, yeah the entry level one with the Renault Clio engine in most of them! 😂
What is the price of this car
How much ??
Youre the first car journalist, that likes the steering in this car.. all the others were like, Total numb AF 😏
I've seen Matt's review. I agree engine sound is disappointing, but I've driven many cars with steering much worse than this. Sure, it's not brilliant, but perhaps it's a matter of high/low expectations. I didn't expect much from it, and I was pleasantly surprised. If this were a BMW, I'd say it's numb, but for a Mercedes it's quite OK.
Marek Drives yeah okay! But nowadays, even the new BMW 5 series is aiming more for luxury and “less steering feel”
I'm surprised how much they stepped it up, but the screens are way to small and it looks average from the outside.
You called it 3 years ago on usb-c 👍🏼
It’s either this or a 2021 vw golf
Honestly better looking but still way expensive for masses especially young people... Are you shitting me? Halogen lights! 😡
I would rather go for new Focus ST 2019. Cheaper and better to drive
take the badge off could be anything, hyundai kia included
I just love this car, it's what i need as young guy. But the price is not that accessible
Lupu Catalin lease it bud
Same old issue with the back seat
Huge amount of reflection on the screen. Very apparent. Probably nothing is visible when sun shines from the side
I understand your concerns, but for the amount of sun I was exposed to, the screens were very clearly visible.
Moootee 👌
You got a beef with Renault engines? Sounded as if... ;)
You forgot to tell about the gearbox?!
The minimal dashboard design, imo doesn't work very well to feel premium despite the big amount of technology incorporated. The missing cockpit is also responsible for this. I remain In love with the current c class interior and dashboard design
Didn't try the modes , sport , comfort , eco !
I love this car but it's terrible if you live near speed bumps.
Does it look like a Kia Forte (hatchback?) to anyone else?
