Hello! I’m MrJWW.
Welcome to the incredible Croatian countryside.
And today we’re going to be test-driving
the new Mercedes-Benz A-Class in 360 degrees.
Welcome to the new Mercedes-Benz A-Class!
Now, don’t forget this video is filmed in 360 degrees,
so please feel free to take a look around
at this incredible environment.
Speaking of environment: Just look where we’re sat.
The immediate thing that hits me when I step inside this car
is that it feels like it’s from a totally different class.
The quality is so superior, every touchpoint,
everything you interact with, just feels incredible.
And the design as well! It is like nothing else I’ve experienced
from a compact class car.
One of my favourite features, and it might seem like
a small detail, but it’s these attentions that really
stand out to me, is the design and sculpture of these air vents.
Now, it’s one of those prominent features on the dashboard and so
I’m not surprised that they put so much effort into it.
But they look like jet engines or turbines.
And, as a result, these details all add up
to a really pleasant environment.
The car I’m in right now is the A 200.
It has the 1.3-litre, four-cylinder turbocharged engine,
pushing out 163 horsepower.
I conveniently find myself on this beautiful
tight twisty mountain road through the Croatian
countryside and it just pulls with
this lovely amount of torque and it’s very responsive
with this optional 7-speed Dual-Clutch gear box.
One of the stand-out features of this car is MBUX.
That stands for Mercedes-Benz User Experience.
The revolutionary thing about it
is the way you interact with it.
Sure, on the one hand, it’s a touchscreen,
but on the other hand, you can literally talk to this car.
I don’t mean you have to remember specific commands
and prompts, you can talk to it like a human.
Let me show you:
Hey Mercedes!
How can I help you?
Take me to the nearest fish restaurant.
Please select an entry.
So, it has now provided me with multiple choices
of fish restaurants in the area.
So, let’s cancel that one and I’ll show you another example.
Hey Mercedes!
How can I help you?
Change the temperature to 28.
I’m setting the temperature to 28 degrees.
Just like that it was done.
You might not have noticed, but this car actually has
a longer wheelbase compared to the previous A-Class.
And not only does that give it a great look
and a really nice stance,
but, of course, on the inside
it allows for more legroom for the passengers.
One other stand-out design feature on the exterior of the car
is this sweeping catwalk line down the side of the car.
The bonnet at the front now has a more exaggerated slope
that connects with the iconic star grille.
If you move around and check out the rear,
you can see how much wider this car sits.
It has exaggerated shoulders,
but also the new rear tail lights are split in the middle.
That looks great, really convenient.
Alright! So that is my time
with the new Mercedes-Benz A-Class.
It has been an incredible journey with a very special car
in the stunning Croatian mountains.
And don’t forget: that’s been filmed in 360 degrees!
So, please feel free to enjoy the view.
As always, guys, thanks for watching
and see you next time. Ciao!
