Finally: a Mercedes Benz that sold new for under $30,000. Yes, I said that right, under $30,000! The Mercedes-Benz A150 is just that car, with super handling and all the things that give Mercedes their reputation. The Mercedes-Benz A150 is only available as a three-door, but its design allows for exceptional room and access to all points in the vehicle. Comfortable seating provides very good spacing for occupants.

The 1.5 litre petrol engine easily holds its own around town and cruises exceptionally well when you open up the throttle. There is a 5-speed manual transmission with an optional CVT Autotronic transmission. There is also a selective damping system which adjusts the shocks absorber rates for different driving situations.

Safety is Mercedes-Benz all the way, with the use of speed sensitive power steering, a selective damping system, Stability control and, of course, ABS Anti-lock brakes and Brake assist. In the event of a serious crash, the Mercedes-Benz A150 will protect you with front, side and window airbags. It has been given a full Five Star rating in European safety tests. Mercedes-Benz has achieved this by building the A150 extensively with high-strength steel alloys in combination with high-strength bonded joints and support sections.

The interior is in classic trim with a driver’s seat that was designed with long travel in mind. There is a multifunction steering wheel, and the dash is ergonomically designed well so that all the instruments and switches are clear and easily within reach.

If you always wanted a Mercedes-Benz but were frightened away by the price, the Mercedes-Benz A150 is the Mercedes for you!
