2015 Mercedes-Benz GLA 45 AMG Nimble and dynamic

Mercedes-Benz trio '45 'equip the Mercedes-Benz AMG GLA 45. Small cars included in the standard AMG has a 2.0-liter engine. Who found in the A-Class, CLA and GLA now is. This car has a sporty design and looks so charming. Mercedes-Benz GLA share a platform with the Mercedes-Benz A-Class, B-Class and CLA. If seen from the shape of this car looks like a SUV.

To start at the heart of the package, the Mercedes-Benz GLA 45 AMG gets the same familiar M133 2.0 litre inline 4-cylinder engine as the rest of the ’45′ cars. This engine features aspects drawn from AMG’s ’63′ series engines as well as their motorsport counterparts. It comes directly from the M270 family of petrol engines which populates the rest of the range. Featuring 360 hp at 6,000 rpm and 332lb ft of torque between 2,250 and 5,000 rpm, the GLA 45 AMG is not short of performance.

Performance is aided by the inclusion (as standard) of the Mercedes-Benz 4matic all wheel drive system. As with most modern four-wheel drive systems, the Mercedes-Benz system is intelligent. Under normal driving conditions, the GLA 45 AMG uses front-wheel drive for optimal efficiency. When required for extra traction, the drive system splits the torque between the front and rear axles up to a ratio of 50:50 percent.

The Mercedes-Benz GLA 45 AMG accelerates from 0-100 km/h in 4.8 seconds and has a electronically limited top speed of 250 km/h. It also complies with EU6 emissions legislation which enters into effect in 2017.

The suspension rides 40 mm higher than the A45 AMG, at the same time the ride height is 16 mm less than a regular GLA. The actual components differ from the standard GLA-Class in that they feature stiffer steering knuckles, a set of modified spring/damper units and bigger anti-roll bars. To provide greater feedback, AMG speed-sensitive sports steering is fitted to this car.
