This is exactly the car I want. It’s simplistic, sporty, has the perfect amount of space and it isn’t that expensive compared to the other classes. Perfect.
The car is abaolutely impressive. It is perfect for urban driving and suitable for long distance trips. Probably the best combination of space and practicality.
I recently got my 2020 Mercedes A220. Thank you for your great review. This is a fun car to drive. It is super packed with technology, and a great size for city driving! It looks as though the one in your video is the same color as mine which is mountain grey. I love this car. And, I think it was definitely worth the money. Thanks again
Congrats on your new car.! May I ask how much did you paid for it on road costs? And maintainance rates? Regular services is expensive? I loved this car and it’s interior and it’s not that expensive like the other class.Great buy and enjoy your new car. Lucky you 👏🏻👌🏻✌🏻
Michael Phan thank you so much! I am still totally loving this car. Happy every time I get in it. It has averaged 24-25 mph. And I worked in a deal for maintenance for 3 yrs covered with dealership. Thanks again for your good wishes!
Rave Reviewer Thanks for your response. You have got yourself a bargain. I will definitely have my test drive after lockdown. Please take care and stay safe:)
Just buy a used c200 (2016-2017), idk what the price is where u live but its around 13-20k in belgium, very very affordable price for an incredibly comfy and great looking car
*I have a 2019 (W247) B200CDi Hatchback with a drag of .24 the most efficient SUV and have proven this over a 90 Mile run achieving 76.3 MPG, this is substantially assisted by an 8 speed Auto Gearbox and ECO Mode that **_freewheels_** - Coasts, the car and disengages the Gearbox totally when lifting off throttle. Absolutely amazing, and you can get 2 Adult Mountain Bikes in the rear without messing about removing wheels etc.*
For those saying the car is out of your price range. As an A-220 owner. It's not worth the price. Mine has been riddled with problems and I'm going to be doing a buyback and hopefully it'll be approved.
@@Deriggs007 Well, I was considering buying one, but I have been hearing lots of bad things about german cars. Maybe I'll have to stick to a Japanese brand like Lexus.
Roli Vásárhelyi I honestly would. I had a Mazda before. Not a single problem. It’s okay to lease this car cause of warranty, but that’s it. I bought mine and regret it
My car only runs 1000km then problem with aircon, it gives me hot air in a hot day of 35°C, Mercedes said the aircon. Sensor intermittently not able to detect temperature. Oh my God, only 1000km
Hi James Thanks for your excellent reviews. I have watched a fair few of your videos & always wonder which farewell word you’ll say at the end. I needed a suggestion. I’m tossing up between buying Mercedes A180 Sedan with AMG styling, seat comfort & vision package etc or Mazda 3 X20 Astina. I know they cater to different markets. But in terms of drive (power), technology & safety which one would you suggest.
I can't agree with this reviewer in regards to the dual clutch transmission, it is truly awful and should only be in high performance vehicles. I've owned the hatchback A200 for 9 months now and the transmission drives me absolutely insane. Accelerating after a traffic light has gone green is terrible. The car pushes you back in your seat, and then continues to have clunky gear changes until third or fourth gear is reached. It's enough to put me off ever buying another Mercedes.
Isn't that what you want...during acceleration people usually likes being pushed to the seatback. I have a VW Golf TSI with DSG which does...but interestingly my 330i MSport with the 8speed ZF auto does not even though it's a more powerful car.
I can't believe it's more aerodynamic than a Tesla. It certainly doesn't accelerate as fast as a Tesla. And it definitely won't match Tesla when it comes to total cost of ownership.
Its a veryyy good looking car, but i wouldnt say it looks better than an c or especially an e class hahaha but is deff. Comparable and in the same tier of beauty
I have had 2 E class Mercedes & all I can say is they are over rated & expensive. You might ask why 2 when I didn’t like them, they were both for work. Even the quality of the new large screen is second rate.
E Class like current model can also be very stylish, reasonably spacious, very comfortable and quiet, plus very good RWD-based handling and turning circle.
1.3 litre turbo with 5.7 litre per 100km fuel consumption? Big NO! too thirsty for such a small hairdryer engine. I must say it looks better than the w205.... only if they could have a better engine for that cute body
Do not buy this car people my 16 plate A class piston snapped this year despite always being serviced at the manufacturer garage. Mercedes made me front up costs towards a new engine and refused to cover 100%. Shocking brand that only care about their sale and nothing after that
Basically here is the summary. It's no better than a Mazda 3 or Toyota Corolla. But with a turbo charged engine, plus swastica, over engineered design expect to pay 50% more at purchase and 50% more every time you service it. And after 5 years the maintenance will be a nightmare and after 10 years it will be dumped as nobody will foot the bill for a engine overhaul.
I clearly didn’t say the interior is the same, I said the interior doesn’t look outdated and is beautiful for the old C Class. I was speaking about the possibilities of purchasing an old C Class, and for maybe at a cheaper price.
Mercedes Benz just aren't what they used to be. They are built cheap and lack class nowadays, not the same solid feel and quality fit and finish they used to be known for. Now just obnoxiously styled pose mobiles for people trying to one up themselves even though they live in debt and struggle to make the payments on their low end model cars.
Give me the new Toyota HiAce over this, bigger, roomier, more stylish especially in white, and far less likely to get keyed while in the car park when I am at the hairdressers.
I hate the big screen. It makes the Car look super boring everywhere else inside. And i cant even imagine how much repairs costs if something gets damaged. Not the best Car in this Price Range by faaar aka Car for people without anything else to be proud of but money. Pathetic.
This is exactly the car I want. It’s simplistic, sporty, has the perfect amount of space and it isn’t that expensive compared to the other classes. Perfect.
It's not sporty... but okay...
Its expensive to maintain trust me
No space in the back.

When You Realize The Cheapest Mercedes Is Out Of Your Price Range...
Hahahhahahha
Dude I feel your pain.. Guess we have to wait a few years till they get cheaper so we can finally afford a Toyota Prius...
my god
Just buy a used c200 (2016-2017), idk what the price is where u live but its around 13-20k in belgium, very very affordable price for an incredibly comfy and great looking car
The cheapest over here in Singapore starts at $160,000 Aussie ..almost 4 times the price lol
The price is in Australian dollars (if you have not realized - significant difference)
will definitely put this on my raider for 2024-2025 when it depreciates a decent chunk
Sedan looks so much better.
But less power.

What did the service team said
Mercedes Benz A class sudden is wonderful looking but exhaust sound..... Maybe like sports is better for the ride...... Nice review Buddy.......
Thanks, PC. James C
What's the colour of the car please?
I like this guy. Really good review
Hi James
Thanks for your excellent reviews. I have watched a fair few of your videos & always wonder which farewell word you’ll say at the end.
I needed a suggestion. I’m tossing up between buying Mercedes A180 Sedan with AMG styling, seat comfort & vision package etc or Mazda 3 X20 Astina. I know they cater to different markets. But in terms of drive (power), technology & safety which one would you suggest.
I love it, so proportionate and handsome
The A class hatchback looks so nicer and has a bigger and wider both and more headroom for the back passengers
I can’t agree and it is not true. The Sedan looks more aggressive and is longer than the hatchback. But the hatchback looks also nice, ngl
Mercedes is spoiling their beautiful headlights designs ...😢😢😢
No it ain't, Mercedes has always had worst headlights. This is much better!
@@St_spjt yes true ....They used to have worst
Their headlights look much better now
I dont like the wheel color.. And its not looks luxurious cuz its not chrome in the side
@carsguide
I would like to know the color of that a class. Thank you very much
Great review
The car is phenomenal but it is smaller than it looks. For 6'3'' people and taller, c or e class would be more suitable.
1.3 turbo? Yikes. No sound-proofing under bonnet lid. Call me crazy, and many do, but I'd rather have a new Camry.
Camry practical, spacious, comfortable, quiet and reliable, but with A Class, you have a stylish machine that you can also show off more.
A very practical car and a very nice Review.

Thxs for tips👍
Very fair honest review
CARSGUIDE please answer please ? What's the actual color of the car ? Wonka says mountain grey but Noah says it's Mojave Silver.
I can't believe it's more aerodynamic than a Tesla. It certainly doesn't accelerate as fast as a Tesla. And it definitely won't match Tesla when it comes to total cost of ownership.
Lol Tesla fanboy much? This car is not attempting to compete with a Tesla, nor be faster than a Tesla. It has nothing to do with Tesla.
This is not even in the bracket where Tesla starts :D ! It's a totally different market segment.
A tesla‘s is much more expensive lol how is it cheaper overall
It's a beautiful car and I'm getting one 😀
Who also thinks it's more beautiful than c class and e class
Its a veryyy good looking car, but i wouldnt say it looks better than an c or especially an e class hahaha but is deff. Comparable and in the same tier of beauty
The dude absolutely not the headlights alone doom this car
Im 16 tryna make this m’y fisrst car for next year
David Pender me too
Same
We love ours
If they had a hybrid version with something like 65MPG, I would be all over it.
They have the A250e hybrid A class
It sucks that C-class doesnt have the MBUX system
Rear seat head room is smaller then Micra........
This one looks like a winner.
Milgauss spotted 👌🏼
I was just wondering if someone else noticed!
Erik V great minds 👌🏼
Mum has the hatch but I want to buy the sedan version. Any long term owners of this model out there? Thoughts please!
I have the sedan and I hadn’t had any issues yet. And it looks better than the hatch in my opinion
@@ToadStar yeah I agree but I guess it depends what the buyer is looking for. Did you add a lot of accessories to it or take it as it was?
Perfect, lets get it.
$49000 brand new i wonder were he got that figure from? $58000 ex demo there selling for in reality
Maybe, he said the wrong currency?
I think its Australian dollars
Older c class of 2000 have this CG, liked that circles on hood
This or rang rover evouk ?
What is the actuall price
Price?
So which suspension was tested? Standard or optional adaptive???
Asking the right question.
I will wait for the new BMW 2 Series when it’s released,THANKFULLY retaining RWD.
I read new 2 series will actually be FWD
@@Joobkl That's the way we like it.

Give us the Richard Berry ya dogs
I would pay the same amount an get a real Mercedes in the C Class
Good luck getting a C class for $50k.
He can get a used C Class for much cheaper.
The C Class interior is beautiful and doesn’t look outdated at all, also, I’m not talking about lease, I’m talking about purchasing used.
You would not get the same high technology of this new A class.
I clearly didn’t say the interior is the same, I said the interior doesn’t look outdated and is beautiful for the old C Class. I was speaking about the possibilities of purchasing an old C Class, and for maybe at a cheaper price.
eww its front wheel drive
i don't get how anyone can like this new front end over the previous version... this looks so outdated already. other than that, it looks great.

Styling is very subjective, but I do agree with you the old model looked better outside.

This car is a nice wife car 😀
Too lazy to design a proper dash layout, instead, just stick a screen on top. The sedan is just ill-proportioned and irritating to look at.
3:20 3:42 The entire back seat is flimsy, looks cheap... btw horrible design mercedes! (interior and exterior)...
design is subjective. majority of people love the interior design
