Mercedes-Benz GLA 45 AMG: Image gallery
Mercedes-Benz just launched the GLA 45 AMG at Rs 69.6 lakh ex-Mumbai. We've tested where we found that it offers an interesting mix of sportscar performance with enough space for four, a decent boot and practical ground clearance although the suspension lets you down a little. Here's a closer look at the latest AMG in India.
The GLA 45 is based on a standard GLA, but treated to some go-faster bits that make it stand out
Mercedes would have you believe this is an SUV but walk up to one and you would agree that it isn't much larger than a supermini; a compact crossover at best
The cabin looks attractive and sporty, aided by a lovely flat bottom steering wheel and conventionally positioned AMG gear selector
Sporty dials are similar to the CLA
Conventionally positioned AMG gear selector
Lovely sports seats are firm but supportive and comfortable and come with contrasting red seatbelts
The GLA 45 is a true AMG in the sense that the engine is the highlight of the package
Lovely 19-inch wheels that expose big brakes and bright red AMG calipers
The 2.0-litre inline four uses a large variable geometry turbo to produce 360PS and 450Nm, huge numbers for the displacement
The car pulls hard up to 200kmph and doesn't run out of steam till it hits its top speed of 250kmph
On a smooth road the GLA 45 feels enjoyably sharp
