Alongside the compact saloon, the A-Class Saloon has been part of the compact car portfolio of Mercedes-Benz since 2018. A logical addition, because with the C, E and S-Class, Mercedes-Benz has more premium saloon competence than most other manufacturers. The A-Class Saloon benefits from its long rear end and beats the world record of Cd 0.22 originally established by the CLA Coupé. The A-Class is able to drive semi-autonomously in certain driving situations. It has driving assistance systems with cooperative driver support, and thus provides one of the highest levels of active safety in this segment with functions adopted from the S‑Class. MULTIBEAM LED headlamps are available on request.

For the compact models, the third-generation plug-in technology was adapted and scaled for the transverse engine. Electrically powered driving pleasure and everyday suitability are the main focus. The highlights of the models with EQ Power:

Electric range 74-77 km (NEDC)
Electric output 75 kW
System output 160 kW
System torque 450 Nm
Top speed 140 km/h (electric)/235 km/h (total; A-Class Compact Saloon)
Acceleration 0-100 km/h in 6.6 seconds (A-Class Compact Saloon)
Hardly any restrictions in the load compartment

The two A 250 e models can be charged with alternating or direct current. A corresponding vehicle socket is located in the right-hand side wall of the vehicles. This means that the compact plug-in hybrids can be charged at a 7.4 kW Wallbox with alternating current (AC) within 1 h 45 min from 10-100 percent SoC (Status of Charge and with For direct-current charging (DC) the battery can be charged from 10-80 percent SoC in around 25 minutes.
