  | Mercedes A Class Facelift Spotted   Earlier today we showed the first photos of the Mercedes B class facelift, now we have similarly revealing photos of the facelifted Mercedes A Class which like it's larger sibling should make its debut at the Paris Motor Show next October. The facelift will feature a completely new front skirt and bumper as well as new headlights and a more arrow shaped grille, on the rear we only see very mild changes, with a slightly modified bumper and redesigned taillights. We expect to see a new BlueTec diesel unit and – in the long run at least – a hybrid engine. - ONLY REGISTERED AND ACTIVATED USERS CAN SEE ALL LINKS - CLICK HERE TO REGISTER - ONLY REGISTERED AND ACTIVATED USERS CAN SEE ALL LINKS - CLICK HERE TO REGISTER - ONLY REGISTERED AND ACTIVATED USERS CAN SEE ALL LINKS - CLICK HERE TO REGISTER - ONLY REGISTERED AND ACTIVATED USERS CAN SEE ALL LINKS - CLICK HERE TO REGISTER - ONLY REGISTERED AND ACTIVATED USERS CAN SEE ALL LINKS - CLICK HERE TO REGISTER - ONLY REGISTERED AND ACTIVATED USERS CAN SEE ALL LINKS - CLICK HERE TO REGISTER |

| Re: Mercedes A Class Facelift Spotted We are looking at an A200 Turbo.  From what I can see now the grille looks quite different. The headlights might receive a slight design change, but that's speculation on my part for now. Any interior shots? |

| Re: Mercedes A Class Facelift Spotted The A/B-Class interior is actually fine, but I am just curious if they're going to change anything. Guess we'll have to wait. Hopefully the B-Class will become sportier. Everytime I drive one I feel like I am 90 and on viagra... |

 I am wondering why that thing is marketed as a Sportstourer: there's nothing remotely sporty about the B-Class. Even the Sport Package does nothing to improve handling.  | |
