  • This is the all-new Mercedes-AMG A35! With the Golf R and Audi S3 set firmly in its sights, the A35 is looking to ensure Mercedes sits atop of the hot hatch category while we wait for the unveiling of the new A45 in 2019.
    So does the A35 offer enough to take on the established competition of the Golf R and S3 while we wait for the new A45? Join Mat for his latest Top 10 review to find out!

    This is a huge improvement over the previous A class. I like that Mercedes have made a variant to rival the likes of the S3, 135i,Type R etc. More choice to the consumer not everyone has the means or what's an A45 as a daily driver! 300bhp is enough for most people on public roads.

      Eventus Vantos there really isn’t a “huge difference” in this case to be honest. In the process of AMG “expanding” their brand, there is no denying they are Diluting the brand in the process. Let me put it this way, if Ferrari wanted to make small hatchbacks to cater for those who don’t want “full on” Ferrari’s, they are most definitely going to not be as prestigious as competing brands like McLaren. Same logic applies to AMG. In fact, this is the exact reason why Audi created their S models to bridge the gap between standard and RS models and BMW don’t market the M140 as a full on M car.

      @@eventusvantos2770 I don't understand why people hate on AMG for that. I mean, the M140i doesn't dilute M sport and the Audi S models don't dilute Quattro GmbH. Why should this model dilute AMG then. That's one of the most stupid things I've heard so far

    • @dwergmaster
      @dwergmaster Před 5 lety +1

      Obviously the M140i doesn't dilute the M badge, it got a beautiful, massive in-line 6 engine.
      Quattro GmbH doesn't exist so it can't be diluted.
      For me (and many others), AMG, M and Audi Sport GmbH should be about creating the craziest monster they are capable of given a certain car model. No compromise. The Audi S models should therefore simply be regular Audi cars and the RS badge should only be put on the high-end models, same with AMG and M.
      Until 10 years ago, it was exactly like that and it actually meant something to have the AMG, M or RS badge on your car. Today, these badges are abused for indicating a 5k interior package in your 4-cylinder diesel car.

      Tom den525 who defines what a real amg is? You or amg the ones who build it themselves? Last time I checked the producer knows what they really built better than anyone else. And certainly better than a random youtube commentor trying to act like a know it all.
      Its not a marketing buzz word. They don't just stick an amg badge on it and call it a day. It gets modified to be more sporty both design wise and performance wise... To produce a completly different beast of a car.
      You are getting so caught up in the name rather than the car itself. The badge is not what makes an amg. Its the transformation itself.
      Lmao 74 hp more with tons of other technical stuff and still its a "rebranded a250" according to your logic.
      So you are admitting that you are a badge whore. You notice an amg not by the badge it has but by the amount of sporty change that has been done to it. That's what makes an amg by definition. A sporty Mercedes. Doing so does not dilute the brand. It defines the brand. That's the whole principal of amg and what its based on. Transforming Mercedes into sporty automobiles. The fact they make many kinds of sporty vehicles is what they are known for and praised for. It IS/DEFINES the brand. So by definition it can't dilute it.

Its a goegous modern elegant sporty and futuristic interior.
      Its not missing a dashboard. Its that the dashboard is lower giving you a much betrer viewing angle of the road ahead.
      And its not an iPad. Its dual gorgeous screens with amazing resolution and look nothing like an iPad. And its placed right in line with the drivers eye level for the optomial viewing angle.

The R is simply too understated, the A3 is proportional properly the best - but it is also a very conservative after all and the 135 like this does also not really impress - And I am only talking looks here. Had it included an M2 I would not be in doubt, but that is not entirely this segmentation. So yea undecided for looks here.
