Not Average At All - The 2019 Mercedes-Benz A-Class A220 from Mercedes Benz of Arrowhead

- Mercedes-Benz of Arrowhead - www.arrowheadmb.com - The quintessential Mercedes-Benz A220 is still a technology-laden luxury sedan. Yes, today the company's three-pointed star adorns a wider variety of vehicles than even Ford's Blue Oval. But that is merely the cost of chasing luxury market share. Mercedes' commitment to its ideal form is so strong that it graces even its most entry-level car, the A-class subcompact, which has grown and grown up. Now offered as a proper three-box design-two more than it started with in 1997-the fourth-generation A-class makes its debut in the U.S. market early next year.
Under its steel skin, the A-class rides on an evolution of the transverse-engine platform underpinning the current CLA. At just more than 179 inches long, the A-class is some three inches shorter than that "four-door coupe," as Mercedes insists on describing it, and yet the packaging is far superior. Headroom and legroom are substantially greater in both rows, and the rear seat is not only usable but actually comfortable for two adults. Design tricks such as a dashboard raked steeply toward the firewall make the A-class almost TARDIS-like in its roominess.
Mercedes Benz will launches the 2019 Mercedes-BEnz A-Class A220 in the United States with just one powertrain: a turbocharged 2.0-liter inline-four making 188 horsepower and 221 pound-feet of torque, mated to a seven-speed dual-clutch automatic. All-wheel drive is optional. This Mercedes A220 sedan is essentially a detuned version of the European A250, which has 221 horses and 258 pound-feet. While the more potent model might eventually come stateside, the 2019 Mercedes-Benz A220 A-Class feels stronger than its numbers suggest. The 4MATIC version hits 60 mph in 6.1 seconds, matching the last CLA25 we tested despite being down 20 ponies and 37 pound-feet. Throttle response in the A-class A220 is excellent and turbo lag is nearly nonexistent. The dual-clutch automatic offers paddle shifters, yet left to its own devices, it does a fine job of keeping the engine in the ample part of its torque band. None of the low-speed clunkiness we've experienced in the CLA is present.
Mercedes-Benz has also banished that car's harsh ride. While some European A-classes have lower-cost twist-beam rear suspensions, all U.S.-market cars have a multilink rear suspension and struts up front, and wheels range in size from 17 to 19 inches. We've driven both a front-driver and an all-wheel-drive version in the Mercedes-Benz A-Class A220 like our test car. Both wore 19-inch wheels and delivered a comfortable and well-controlled ride, although the front-drive model was better damped, with a bit less impact harshness than the heavier 4MATIC model. The steering has a natural heft that translates into precise car placement. Pirelli P Zero PZ4 tires deliver plenty of grip but also contribute to a sometimes noisy cabin; all-season tires will most assuredly be fitted as standard equipment when the A-class goes on sale here in the next few months.
Dynamically, the baby Benz resembles top-tier sport compacts such as the Honda Civic and the Volkswagen Golf, yet inside, the A-class tries hard to distinguish itself from such pedestrian transportation. Most noticeable are the side-by-side screens, freestanding and vertically positioned atop the dashboard. Although all those pixels do a good job of distracting occupants from the surrounding plastic (if not the road), they carry an ergonomic liability. The instrument-cluster screen can be difficult to view through the steering wheel, and the touchscreen for the new infotainment system is just out of reach for drivers with short arms.
If this is a case of form over function, the same cannot be said of the seats, which are excellent, both supportive and comfortable. Extensive contrasting trim throughout the interior, ambient lighting that extends across the dash and into the doors, and ornate illuminated vents are all on offer and give the A-class more than enough jewelry to be taken seriously as a luxury car. Thank you Nick Russo for this 2019 Mercedes-Benz A Class A220 review.

I have never been interested in a Benz. This has delightfully changed my mind...!
Same for me
a handsome car for a great price....kudos to Mercedes Benz for this starting model.
I’m currently getting this car and I’m leasing it just to see how I like it before I go and get a c or a e and this car is honestly awesome for what you get it’s pretty nice
@@keno8070 update on the car?
This will be my first Mercedes! I opted for an Acura TLX instead of the MB CLA a few years ago at the time when I wanted to lease my first Mercedes. Glad this model was released in U.S. Great entry-level luxury sedan from MB.
Such a fantastically thorough review. Most dealership videos are terrible. Glad I live in the West Valley. Keep up the great work!
The A Class got the highest crash test score of any car tested by Euro NCAP. How great. Euro NCAP is one of the world's foremost crash testing authorities. That's a major selling point. Also, omg this guy is hot!
I really enjoyed this video, you made me not even care for a 2020-2023 one. I want THIS one 😂
Thanks Vanessa - Glad you enjoyed the video! If you are in the market for one we ship all over the country.
Great video. I love this car. My 2020 should be arriving soon. Thanks for your upbeat, informative presentation
This guy is my favorite! The car is fantastic i did a test drive and now im expect mine in the early September.
So much better than the CLA! Glad I waited to take the dive on a new entry level MB - can’t wait to test drive!
Great video! Super well done!
Great video! I leased a 2019 C 300, when my 4 yrs is up going to try this beauty out!
Have this car and jus now see all the features, voice command,I love this car
I got my 2021 a couple weeks ago. Very satisfied with it. Coming from a 2015 C class
Lol You got that star in front of your car... people know who you are! I love this guy! Great review btw. Will consider the A class in the near future.
Great demo on the new A-Class sir. In-depth details on it, I am in Virginia and in the market for my daughter and after watching this I will take her to have a look-see. Thanks
You are the best salesman. Great job...
That’s it, I’m hooked! Definitely gonna get one now😁
Im glad I found this car
Wow Nick made me wanna by a car right now. This guy is a Sales Man. If I’m in Peoria Arizona and need to buy a Benz. Nicks my man
Honestly the best car I have ever drove or been in so far greatly made !!
How is it holding up with maintenance?
Perfect review, you are the One
My birthday is in 2 months. I’m getting this car. GUARANTEED! 🤩
Dam he did an awesome review on this car Great Video Boss 👌
00:44 *On the base model you do not get LED Headlights but only daylight running LED lighting, and you need the Premier Pack to include 64 Color option and Electric Seats are only on the Premier Plus Pack. Cruise Control on lever (**5:05**) much safer than finding a tiny button to cancel, I often have to touch the brakes to deactivate. Looks far better, and much more practical in the European Version 5 door Hatchback. Version Tested/Shown seems to be the Premium Pack option or Premium Plus with sunroof etc.*
00:44 you are right but I don't know what type of headlight on base model? definitely not halogen, probably not xenon either. So what it can be then?
Great car!my favorite brand!
Wished more about driving dynamics and specs unfortunately!! technology and technology!
Hey mercedes hey mercedes all day long:)
Wow this guy is good you should do more videos you nailed it
Damn beautiful car!!! I want this thing! Better than a CLA, especially that interior.
RedLight GreenArrow 2019/2020 CLA will have this exact interior as well.
Fell in love with it! Getting mine Monday so excited!! The tech won me over. Went to MB dealer just to look haha. Also Nissan actually started the 360 view.
Kevin Clavijo did you end up getting it?
Kevin Clavijo how do you like it?
This will be my next car!
I have to admit I never really considered this car because most luxury brands skimp out on their lower offerings. But now that I've gotten a good look at what this car offers I'm going to have to take a trip down to Mercedes and really consider a trade in.
I want this I'm waiting on the 2020 model
Awesome!!!!!!
Man that is amazing 😁
Awesome Demo! It’s an MBZ for me!!!😎
perfect car
Im sold for sure
Ive got CLA version with all this stuf u were talking about. Amazing i love it, and the hybrid no gas torque and silence in 250e is just briliant for those who like electric rather than traditional gasoline. But my voice asistant isnt working as good like in the move all the time "im sorry i cant do trat" or "im sorry i didnt understand can you repeat" thats kinda wired
Does packing assist package conjunct with rear cross traffic alert ?
You can't watch a smartphone while you driving.... but you can watch 2 tablets :3
WALLOOP 😂😂😂
Hey mercedes, can you be mine!!!
Right ! 😂
Is it gonna be available in all wheel drive?
I really wish the screen was depressed into the dashboard and had an actual shade. That sunlight makes it hard to see the screen.
This man is tiny😱 nevertheles, great review, great car
I know this is not relevant to the video, but where can I find the pants you are wearing?
Esta hermoso yo lo quiero
really they have dual power seats in the US? In Canada, that's an additional option. Even if you add all the available packages (Premium, Night, Sport, AMG, Tech), you still don't have the passenger power seat. It stands alone in a separate option. I don't understand why Mercedes cut the corner here
The basic model doesn’t come with ambiental lighting, blind spot assist or gps.. everything is separate.
35K will get it done
Av got to start saving my money for this beautiful car..... Love it so much
What trim
...this guy really is a salesman
Does anybody here own this car ? How is it on reliability and issues maintenance?
Hey Mercedes bring the hatch version over..how about that??
TopSecretVid I was expecting the hatch I’m kinda disappointed
*This has proven to be the best car I have ever owned, including many previous Mercedes and a Rolls Royce Silver Shadow. Not really interested in 0-60 but in Sport Mode VERY VERY QUICK, I prefer ECO which has achieved 85.6 MPG [UK Gallon 4.54 Litres] over 108 Mile Run. I now own a vehicle that I had a **_very_** small part in it's design in Dortmund December 2016, but must apologise regarding "Fake Exhausts" I argue/did contest (Real Twin on W246 Series that I had at the time) the point being ultimately was overruled by EU NOISE Emissions as many other manufacturers were. One small point the Air Intakes on Front Grill and Rear Diffuser/Vents many many Millions of € were spent by Mercedes in developing these, a figure was mentioned but I have forgotten, it achieves the lowest drag coefficient [0.24 Cd] of any other comparable vehicle, Only available on the AMG Models I believe. The MBUX at Dortmund was in early development, and only a cardboard cut out on dash. However it exceeds all expectations and absolutely amazing. When driving in the dark just Say - Turn up Heating, put rear passenger lights on, change lighting to Blue, what's the Weather tomorrow, Navigate to Bill Bloggs, provided you have Bill in your Contacts on Smartphone and it will immediately respond*
well a pretty good competitor to Corolla
*TIP Sworn to secrecy so can not say a lot more, However just you wait until mid 2020 when the Hybrid and all EV Versions are launched. You will be amazed. Tip up to 40 miles on (Plug in) pure electric, and over 200 miles on the full EV Version. Start Worrying Elon, you may have met your match or better.*
looks better than C class.
M - BUX?? and you working for Mercedes?
Mercedes accord
I brought one and the M box. As gone faulty on a 6 month old car so it’s not that good 👎
Haha.. Looks like you never drive Tesla earlier.
Get an e39. Your welcome.
I appreciate this video man but this car doesn't compete with an Accord or Camry, and the Accord and Camry don't touch $40k fully loaded.
worse car I have ever bought!! stay away!! around 35k miles start loosing power and around 55-75 the cylinder goes off! in addition to that they will not help you on that since Mercedes only offer 50k miles warranty. I have this model parked on my driveway with two cylinders damaged. Called Mercedes USA care NOTHIN, went to the Mercedes were I bought this model, NOT HELP. Somebody from Mercedes told me off the record that I should never experienced that situation on a 2019 Mercedes with 60k miles. The engine is bad! the fun part is that nobody in Mercedes seems to care about this issue!
Old men describing tech is cringe
