Renders 2022 Mercedes A City

[tristatez28lt1]

MB wants to offer, with the A City, below the A-Class, a new entry-level model - a Baby-Benz for less than 20,000 euros! For this purpose, the current A-Class is shortened and a pretty three-door car in the style of the study presented at the IAA EQA put on the wheels. So the gap to smart would close perfectly. However, a problem should be the cost. With the A-Class and its variants, Daimler earns good money - also because the numbers are so high. Produced on three continents, around 700,000 copies are produced each year. Nevertheless, the current platform must be refined and simplified so that the entry-level model pays off. For the A-class currently costs from 30,000 euros, on the same basis a model for 10,000 euros less offer, is quite a feat.

It could help to launch several variants. In addition to the classic three-door name A City with large tailgate and space-saving door concept, the fun version A Open Air is up for discussion: flatter than the hatchback and with a roller roof including fully retractable rear window. Even a mini-SUV below the GLA (A Adventure) have the Swabians on the slip. In addition, smart offshoots such as the possible ForMore could use the base. In all cases, the fundamental question arises as to whether it would be more sensible to share the cost and unit risk with a partner. Originally a cooperation with BMW was planned, but nothing came of it. That's why the simulation games are once again focused on the Renault-Nissan alliance.

Is this for real?

This A looks 100 times better than the current))) Especially the rear.

I wonder why MB don't just dissolve the Smart brand and launch a Mercedes branded Audi A1 rival?

For some strange reason, in my financially destroyed part of the world, the only two cars that seem to sell in my area are the Jeep Renegade and the Smart ForTwo.

Those damn things are everywhere! At least they don't eat much parking space.

They are indeed very small and very cheap too. Nowadays it’s a rebadged Renault Twingo right?
