Mercedes A-Class facelift 2015 review - pictures

This is the updated Mercedes A-Class.

Visually, a diamond-pattern front grille, updated rear light clusters, and new bumpers incorporating the tailpipes differentiate this from the previous model.

Inside has improved too, although the awkward seperate screen remains.

AMG Line spec adds 18-inch alloy wheels and an AMG bodykit with lowered suspension.

Adaptive damping is now an option on AMG Line, Motorsport Edition and A250 AMG models.

The adaptive damping system lets you choose between comfort and sport modes.

The improved seats make the A-Class a great motorway cruiser.

Even entry-level cars get Media Interface and a reversing camera.

The A-Class' practicality is still hampered by a narrow boot opening.

The 2.1-litre diesel engine in this car isn't as smooth and refined as the 2.0-litre unit in the Audi A3.

The best sellers in the range are expected to be the A200d and A180d.
