STUD OR DUD? Mercedes Reveals A45 AMG Performance Hatchback

Mercedes-Benz has confirmed limited details to its most affordable performance model to date – the Mercedes A45 AMG.

Set to go on sale in early 2013, the Audi RS3 and BMW M135i rivaling hatchback sits at the top of the new third-generation A-class line-up at an unconfirmed price that is expected to start at around £32,000 in the UK.

The first series production AMG model with a transversely mounted engine runs a heavily tuned version of Mercedes-Benz’s turbocharged 2.0-litre four-cylinder petrol unit, as used in the standard A250 Sport set for UK sale by the end of the year.

A45 = turbocharged 2.0-litre four-cylinder. I give up, I can't even stretch that from 20 to 45... marketdroids win.

Btw, hot looking car.

Should have just called it the A63 AMG. Supposedly this isn't coming to US though.

KneeGrowDynamiteBM - Why is it that some a-hole always has to make a derogatory remark about a mentally impaired or autistic person when criticizing a car design? I hope you're proud of yourself for making fun of people's disabilities - I'm sure you are the model of human perfection. It's jerks like you that I have to spend my life protecting my autistic son from.
