DRIVEN + VIDEO: Doug DeMuro Gets His Mits On The All-new Mercedes-Benz A-Class — So, What's $40k Get You?

It's been amazing to see the automotive industry evolve over the past 20 years. Back in the late 1990s, $40,000 would get you an awful lot of car.

Today? Not so much.

That will only get you an entry-level Mercedes-Benz. But, frankly, is that so bad? Not really, at least if you're looking at the all-new Mercedes A-Class. It may sound bad on paper but just check out Doug DeMuro's review right here and you'll quickly understand why.

That's because the all-new A is packed with technology and its interior is a big step up from the last-gen CLA-Class.

Get dialed in via DeMuro's review, below.



The 2019 Mercedes-Benz A-Class is now the cheapest Mercedes-Benz. I'm reviewing the A-Class to show you around the new baby Benz, and I'm showing you all the quirks and features of the Mercedes-Benz A220 -- and all of its technology.

$40,000 gets you a $20,000 econo box with a star on the hood

It simply reminds everyone how cheap and stupid you are

How anyone can listen to his whiny voice trying to do expression for more than 20 seconds is beyond me.

That makes two of us!

No one seems to like when I say it.

FYI: I'd go hybrid. 45 mpg all day, baby!

$40K will get you a very lovely Stinger too.

I'd spend $25k on a Honda Accord Hybrid and be done with it. If I'm buying a MB, it's going to be a truly luxurious model - the S class.
