The A-Class petrol engines are anything but ordinary. And they certainly deserve the good grades they get for performance. Our engineers have gone all out to ensure that these engines really perform. You have the choice of the A 160 with 70 kW (95 hp), the A 180 with 85 kW (116 hp), the A 200 with 100 kW (136 hp) and the A 200 TURBO with 142 kW (193 hp). Even the entry-level model (A 160 or A 160 BlueEFFICIENCY) delivers a superb maximum torque of 140 Nm at 3500 to 4000 rpm. The A 200 achieves 185 Nm at 3500 to 4000 rpm, while the A 200 TURBO leads the list with 280 Nm at 1800 to 4850 rpm. Another top achievement is evident in the petrol engines: the A 160 BlueEFFICIENCY, the A 180 BlueEFFICIENCY and the A 200 with manual transmission meet the strict EU 5 emissions standard.

Easy on the environment and your wallet: the ECO start/stop function, which is available as standard for the manual transmission versions of the A 160 BlueEFFICIENCY and A 180 BlueEFFICIENCY: at traffic lights and in stop-and-go traffic, this function reduces fuel consumption, and consequently emissions, by automatically switching the engine off – and restarting it in a split-second as soon as you engage a gear or remove your foot from the brake pedal.
