STEVENAGE, England, July 30, 2012 /PRNewswire/ --

The new A-Class price has just been announced, the striking hatchback priced from £18,945 on-the-road and now available to pre-order at our Mercedes-Benz retailers in Bishops Stortford, Hertford and Stevenage.

Even better, enjoying the class-leading style and specification of the new A-Class doesn't have to come at a high price. In response to much interest in the new A-Class and to introduce the delights of driving a prestigious, cutting-edge Mercedes-Benz to even more motorists, our Retailers are able to offer the new A-Class from just £249 per month.

A range of advanced petrol and diesel engines will power the new A-Class, spanning from the segment-leading A 180 CDI with CO₂ emissions of only 98g/km to the A 250 with a powerful 211hp, all of which feature the ECO start/stop function as standard. The 7G-DCT dual clutch automatic transmission is available as an alternative to the new six-speed manual transmission across all engines.

Models can be specified in a choice of 11 colours and included in the standard specification is the radar-based COLLISION PREVENTION ASSIST system and ATTENTION ASSIST.

The A 180 BlueEFFICIENCY petrol kicks off the new A-Class range. In addition, there are four other model lines - SE, Sport, AMG Sport and Engineered by AMG.

Designed to offer customers exemplary levels of luxury and refinement, the SE has such standard features as comfort suspension, sport seats in a fabric and ARTICO stripe design; Nappa leather steering wheel; and the Audio 20 sound system with Bluetooth^® technology.

The Sport is easily identified with its twin exhaust pipes and 17" bi-colour twin-spoke alloy wheels, while inside its beautifully finished interior has ambient lighting and sports seats in a fabric and ARTICO chequered design. Cruise control with Speedtronic and rain sensors add to the Sport's extensive specification.

Aggressive AMG body styling and 18" AMG five-spoke alloy wheels set the AMG Sport apart. The model's high performance nature is further underlined through its Dynamic Handling Package with sports suspension; perforated disc brakes, flat-bottomed perforated Nappa leather sports steering wheel and sports seats trimmed in ARTICO/Dinamica.

Topping the new A-Class range, the Engineered by AMG model takes its diamond grille with single louvre straight from the striking Concept A-Class. Stunning to look at and exhilarating to drive, the Engineered by AMG A-Class boasts 18" AMG twin-spoke alloy wheels; enhanced AMG sport suspension; bi-xenon headlights; red brake callipers; privacy glass and red accent features on the interior and exterior.
