新一代奔驰A级车合成图近日曝光，从图片看，这是一款五门掀背车。该车将于明年发布，这款奔驰最小车型将采用MFA2平台，所有方面都将获得提升。从先前拍到的谍照看，A级掀背车比老款车略大，而合成图的车尾设计则取自A级概念车。概念车内凹的车门把手被普通把手替代，而细窄的后视镜尺寸换成更适合量产版车型的大尺寸后视镜。车头仍保留了Panamera风格的格栅，两侧是一对小尺寸大灯。保险杠也进行了轻度改款。新车不仅外观改变，内装也进行了大幅升级。奔驰从未展示概念车内装，预计将采用最近谍照显示的数字仪表板，双显示屏，但尺寸要比E级和S级更小。奔驰A级除了掀背车版本，还将有包括轴距更长的轿车版本，不过轿车版很可能专供中国市场。
New Mercedes A-Class Render Transforms Sedan Concept Into Hatch
Seen here is the model that will lead the way for the new A-Class family, the five-door hatchback. Set to be introduced at some point in 2018, Mercedes’ smallest car will herald the MFA2 platform bringing improvements on all fronts compared to the compact vehicles available today carrying the three-pointed star badge.
Multiple spy shots and teasers have shown the A-Class hatchback will be slightly bigger. Naturally, this week’s speculative render of the hatch from OmniAuto.it / Motor1 Italy takes that concept and shortens the rear. The recessed door handles have been replaced by conventional ones, while the slender mirrors had to make way for bigger units more suitable for a production model.
At the front, the Panamericana grille is still there, only this time it’s flanked by a pair of less glitzy headlights. The bumper has also gone through some changes, though these are on a rather subtle level.
Not only will the exterior be subjected to some pretty important modifications, but the interior is also going to be significantly refreshed. Mercedes never showed the interior of the concept, deciding to black out all of the windows in order to keep prying eyes from taking a peek inside the cabin.
Either way, we’re expecting more tech onboard, including a digital dashboard as seen in a recent batch of spy shots. The prototype we are talking about had a dual set of displays, but these were smaller than what the E- and S-Class models feature.
The A-Class hatchback will be followed by the other members of the family in due course and there also might be a long-wheelbase derivative of the sedan, but it might end up as a China-only affair where rear legroom continues to be all the rage.
