We first laid eyes on the new generation of theMercedes-Benz A-Class model at last month's Geneva Salon, but the premium compact hatchback won't be rolling into European dealerships before September.To keep it in the press during this period, the German brand plans to release numerous details about the car in several installments starting with the design and a fresh batch of pictures.
Mercedes says that one of the main goals during the developing phase of the new A-Class was to communicate a sense of dynamism into a two-box body style, which was achieved through the use of defined edges and tautly drawn surfaces.
"Translating the new dynamic style of Mercedes-Benz into the compact class was a challenge that was great fun to tackle", explains Gorden Wagener, Head of Design at Mercedes-Benz.
"No other car in this segment is as progressive as the A-Class. Absolutely typical for Mercedes is the sculptural shape of the A-Class. The character lines, in particular on its sides, lend the A-Class structure and terseness. The new dynamic style is perceptible at first glance in the interior as well," Wagener added.
