Mercedes-AMG A45 Spied with Right-Hand-Drive Configuration

After seeing the Mercedes-AMG A45 in the U.S., the hot hatch was also spotted while undergoing testing in a public road. This time, the car is can be seen with a right-hand-drive configuration. It could only mean that countries like the U.K., Australia, and other countries that use the right-hand drive are getting the high-performance compact car. Based on what appears to be vertical slats on the front grille of the auto plus its quadruple exhausts, new side skirts, and reworked front bumper, we are certainly looking at the AMG version of the A-Class.

The next-generation Mercedes-Benz GLA was recently caught on cam while it was being tested at the Nurburgring track in Nurburg, Rhineland-Palatinate, Germany. The spy video shows the prototype of the upcoming GLA in a heavy zebra camouflage. Therefore, we can only make out some of the crossover’s key design features based on its shape, bulges, and components peeking out from the wrap. Architecture Based on the video, the next-gen GLA almost looks a lot like the brand-new GLB.

The Mercedes-Benz User Experience (MBUX) debuted in January at the 2018 Consumer Electronics Show held in Las Vegas and it recently made its way to the new Mercedes-Benz A-Class. Its maker described it as an intuitive and intelligent multimedia system capable of processing various commands and recognizing various speech patterns.

According to Automotive Mike, the one who uploaded the new Mercedes spy video on YouTube, the A-Class shown in the four-second clip is the A35.
