![]() ![]() | Yeah it looks boxy so far maybe its the camo but for now i dont like it at all..Lets see once the camo comes off..also i was hoping that either the next A or B would be more a sedan type car then a mini MPV but the B is going the MPV way anyone know how the A class will be.. |

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | Ugly so far. From what I read here and there, the A will be sedan-looking, like an A3 or 1-Series. The B will be bigger, roomier than it is now. The BlueZero ones will feature the current double floor platform, the regular A and B won't (no more sandwich concept... no more weird seating position, bigger suspension travel, less bodyroll...).

![]() | The A and B plaform is supposed to spawn a whole range of vehicles, sedan, coupe, convertible, wagon, hatch etc. so I don't care how ugly this one is. Theres bound to be sexy looking variant amongst them that will appeal to the A3/1 Series crowd. |
