|December 28 2016
AMG boss confirms that new mega hatch is set for power hike.
MERCEDES is gearing up to trump its rivals by taking the hot AMG version of the next A-Class north of 400bhp, the boss of the performance division has revealed.
The existing AMG A 45 has enjoyed its status as the world’s most powerful hot hatch ever since it first appeared in 2013. Its 2.0-litre four-cylinder turbo produced 355bhp at launch, although this figure has subsequently been boosted to 376bhp.
Yet that’s not going to stop AMG pushing even further with the hardcore version of the next A-Class – previewed by our exclusive images – which will follow the launch of the standard car in the second half of 2017.
