What a "Mercedes", what are its lines - it is simply impossible to ignore this car! The Mercedes company came to the right conclusions and did a great job - a small, feminine city car has to evoke good emotions. The new model was designed from a "blank sheet" and became much lower, longer and wider than its predecessor, thus moving away from the previously formed image of a mini monovolume. In front of the foreground is a huge radiator grille with a modest triangular star in the middle, interestingly shaped lights on the sides, below the diagonal air intakes. Excellent lateral lines extend throughout the body and rise towards the rear wheels. An already stationary car looks fast. The Class A now looks more dynamic than its main competitors, the Audi A3 or the BMW 1 Series Gray. Kogero only Volvo V40 can evoke similar emotions as this new Mercedes-Benz. Obviously, the company is applying to take market share away from the sporty BMW 1 Series and they can do it. On closer inspection, the A-Class is very similar to the larger, more moderate design, and more like the B-Class-like Mercedes-Benz. Even the interior of both cars is almost identical. Still, the Class A behaves like a typical Mercedes-Benz on the road - the car is sporty enough, it stays well on the road, but without a big fire in sharp turns, the suspension is comfortable, absorbs large road bumps well, but the steering is not sharp. It is also an extremely quiet car. The fact that the car has become sportier looks has the other side of the coin - the luggage compartment of the new model has become 90 liters smaller than its predecessor, smaller than the Audi A3 or BMW 1 Series. Also, getting in the car is not so easy and although there is enough space inside for passengers' heads and feet, the narrow windows and low roof line make you feel as if you are sitting in a bunker. For Koger, it will only be a minor inconvenience to the owner of such a beautiful car.
