If you remember the Mercedes-Benz A-Class as the tall-riding subcompact from the Nineties that got a bit frisky under braking, erase that from your mind. Now all grown-up as a proper compact hatchback and sedan, the Baby Benz as it’s fondly known, is a great entry point into ownership of a Star. With just 500 miles, this may be Mercedes-Benz’ smallest offering, but it doesn’t skimp on luxury and comforts. Read on to find out why this car deserves a space in your garage.
Exterior and Interior
Are you looking for a compact five-seater with decent luggage space that’s less than 180 inches long? If so, this 2022 Mercedes-Benz A220 is a perfect candidate. Wearing a coat of 787 Mountain Gray Metallic and rolling on 18-inch 5-spoke wheels with black accents, it’s not shouty or ostentatious. A panorama sunroof ensures that everyone aboard can enjoy the sky at will. LED headlamps and taillamps are present too, meaning that you don’t have to contend with measly halogens or incandescent bulbs even on the Baby Benz. Step aboard the black interior and you’ve got the Premium Package, 101 MB-Tex in black, H45 Aluminum Trim with lines, Mirror Package and Keyless Go. The Garage Door Opener ensures that you can seamlessly motor in and out of your garage, and there’s ample tech kit on board, including Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, Attention Assist, Active Brake Assist, Rear View Camera, and more. As if that isn’t enough, you’ve got two 10.25-inch screens, one for the digital instrument cluster and the other one acts as the media display, and is touch enabled. Finally, the D49 First Aid Kit ensures that you’re well equipped for medical emergencies.
Engine
The Baby Benz may be small, but it still has a decent 2.0L turbo engine beneath the hood, and in this 2022 Mercedes-Benz A220, the outputs are 188hp at 5,500rpm and 221lb-ft between 1,800 and 4,000rpm. That alone tells you that this is an effortless cruiser, geared to make your daily commute as stress free as possible. Speaking of gearing, drive is sent to the front wheels via a 7-speed DCT automatic transmission. Performance isn’t too shabby thanks to a kerb weight of around 3,000lbs, which translates to a zero to sixty in under 7 seconds, and a top speed of 146mph.
