In autumn 1997 Mercedes-Benz brought some fresh thinking into the compact class with a completely new and unusual concept – the A-Class. This combined advantages such as exemplary use of space, great v ariability and occupant protection to Mercedes standards with the agile handling of a compact car. As its tenth birthday comes around, the second generation of the A-Class is already on our roads. To mark this occasion, Mercedes-Benz is now producing a special model with additional, high-quality appointments, some of which are reserved exclusively for this edition. There is also a price advantage of around 30 percent compared to the list price.

Light-alloy wheels, perforated radiator grille and a special paint finish for a distinctive exterior
Both in visual and practical terms, the new "Edition 10" models of the A-Class have been significantly upgraded with distinctive exterior and interior features. Distinctive, eye-catching exterior details include sporty, 16-inch light-alloy wheels in a 7-twin-spoke design, while a striking, perforated radiator grille painted in matt silver highlights the sporty character of this special model.

Sunny, open-air driving pleasure is guaranteed by the innovative, louvred panoramic sunroof, which opens much wider than most conventional sliding sunroofs. When the scratch-resistant, transparent sunroof is closed, the vehicle interior remains pleasantly light and airy. A retractable double blind, which acts as an air deflector when the roof is open, is used to darken the interior if required.

In addition to the familiar metallic paint finishes, the exclusive and elegant mountain grey is available as a unique and therefore unmistakable hallmark of this special edition, which is also identifiable by a discreet "EDITION" emblem in the mirror triangle.

Aluminium trim and fine leather for a sporty, stylish atmosphere


In the interior a well-coordinated mix of high-grade materials emphasises the exclusivity of the 10-year anniversary model. Trim elements of high-quality, diagonally brushed aluminium on the dashboard console and doors create a stylish contrast with the steering wheel, shift lever and parking brake lever, which are finished in fine leather. Black ARTICO man-made leather frames the seat and backrest panels of the exclusive seats, which are upholstered in a sporty, elegant fabric . The footwells are enhanced by v elour floor mats with silver stitched edging and an embroidered "EDITION" logo.

In addition to the onboard computer, the multifunction steering wheel can be used to operate the MP3-compatible "Audio 5" radio with CD-player and AUX-IN connector. Six loudspeakers ensure a high quality of sound.

Two body variants, three lines and seven different engines


The A-Class model range is available in two body versions, each with its own character. Mercedes-Benz is likewise offering this special edition in the versatile, five-door Saloon version or the three-door Coupé version with its eye-catchingly sporty and youthful appearance. There is also a choice between the CLASSIC, ELGANCE and AVANTGARDE lines.
Seven up-to-date engines are available – three diesel and four petrol units. The outputs of these economical engines range from 60 kW/82 hp (A 160 CDI) to 142 kW/193 hp (A 200 Turbo), with a fuel consumption between 4.9 and 8.1 litres per 100 kilometres (CO2 emissions between 128 and 192 g/km) .

Trendsetter in the compact segment
