Mercedes Benz A-class W168 Development

[Potjiekossie]

This car failed. That is why MB sells Smart car in US, and mot A Class

[shanexu3]

My A160 is very safe. It is safe because it is always broken down with the dreaded F Fault.

[Annihilator1111]

the 1997–2004 Brazil 1999-2005 Mercedes-Benz A-Class was assembled in

Juiz de Fora, Brazil

Rastatt, Germany

Thonburi, Thailand

[abc1236948]

Mercedes should also test a head on crash between its own Smart Car and the Mercedes "A" Class as well since both are very small cars.

If you think this car is ugly, then you are blind.

[MrRobson1975]

[OPozzoli]

Why haven't we seen this car in the MB showroom in America?

[rscosworthfan]

[drcheese42]

good 4 '97 but note how the crash bar on each end touches when it hit the pole

[zodiaco102]

Excellent car. I love my A160 here in Brazil!!!

[SuperVantagepoint]

[losik01]

cwajcis zibcis aine klajne deutche schwine

[SneakyTweaky]

A class is not a mercedes, its a joke. Shit car, never had the mercedes REAL standards!

[nanathebestrapper]

my dad crashed his a class w168 with a citroen saxo and the saxo was fucked up while our car wasn't damaged very much exept from the two passengers doors in front and back!!mercedes benz cars feaure the best safety you can find in a car!awesome video!a class rules!

[aandykf]

nice car!

[rscosworthfan]

shit car not upto mercs usual standards and yes i did own one totally crap so sold it quite quickly

[drcheese42]

@rscosworthfan i agree i think my mums ford ka was more pleasent as it was chirpy and...

big on the inside, small on the outside and it smelt nice

[greenpowercr]

18seconds from 0 to 100? my 83 W123 can tow this vehicle and still get better than that.

[cro508]

@greenpowercr it goes 100? xD

[greenpowercr]

@cro508 100, 120 even 170!! xD

[nemke1990]

A 160 CDI rules...

[Pirnachris1]

nach dem elchtest würde ich mir sogar so einen holen, da er dadurch sicherer geworden ist.

[nismo10]

i really love this car in semiautomatic

[EccentricRichard]

WHY? No-one needs automatics of any kind! Proper stick-shift manuals FTW!

[rscosworthfan]

@EccentricRichard to an extent i agree with you but merc manual gearboxes seem notchy and imprecise most mercs sold are auto shift golden thumb rule they say if you go for a beemer pick manual box if you go for a merc pick auto

[zhexyc]

this is the one mercedes that i like!

[bastiandesaintrob]

in city i prefer own an A class than an other little car like clio or citroen

[namesis93]

this car is ugly inside out :/

[4MATICbenz]

This is probably the one and only Mercedes i dont like. This thing is gross, inside and out :(

[corrodesthefilm]

Haha 2:54 the car, badly wounded, tries to escape.

[carocarotho]

A Classes Suck Big Time, Their Ugly, Too Small and Hideous!

[matsui2001]

They are indeed the worst Merc ever made.

[WillJPalmer]

the A190 fukin MOVES

[gerd514]

Worst Mercedes ever.

[anakakaka]

worst comment ever!

[chickengrasshead]

Opps, I was going to put 5 stars sorry ?

[dany122]

i have one of these A160 and simply love it , and it has like the best milage ! i get something like 6 liters at 100 km

[lukerobin01]

I wanna like this car but it's just so bad as a passenger in it. The ride's hard, the seats are hard, you feel every bump, it's cramped, the rear seats give you arse ache and the speakers don't sound too good. But we have the base model. Perhaps higher spec one's are better.

[obeyzoltan]

check the 2004 model mate, is quite better car!

[lukerobin01]

Isn't the '04 model the current one?

[Aragon159]

i hav an A200 elegance 2006 model. and i love it, mercedes driver for life

[harmankardonbose]

i love these documentals about Mercedes

[OMGITSANTHONY123]

But you have to think...This car wouldnt last a crash on the Autobahn, let alone the highway across your street..

[ianfigures]

Normally I hate supermini cars like this but... this one... I like it!

[arospeed169]

@ianfigures oh really? do you like the original mini

[GMminivans9968]

Excellent! Simply brilliant video!

[hanoth]

worst mercedes ever

[Raune88]

You are right.
