Mercedes AMG A35

No sooner has the new A-Class arrived on the market, Mercedes rolls out the first AMG variant, the little A35.

Still equipped with the small 2.0L 4-cylinder turbocharged engine, the A35 develops 302 hp and 295 lb-ft of torque. All versions are AWD-configured and mated to a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission.

With a stiffer suspension, re-calibrated steering and more-robust brakes, the A35 should be extremely generous with the driving pleasure delivers, already a strong point with the base model.

The interior features the same Mercedes MBUX infotainment system, plenty of quality leather materials and surfaces and a 64-colour ambient lighting system that's sure to impress.
