2023 Mercedes-Benz A200 Limousine Review: Baby-Merc Gets A Subtle Makeover - IN PICS

The exterior design for the 2023 Mercedes-Benz A-Class Limousine is updated, but the changes are hard to notice. Do not worry, just keep reading, we'll ease things out for you. The front end is now flaunting a new bumper with larger faux air dams on either side of the primary air dam. The grille is slightly revised with a rather slim chrome ribbon. Furthermore, the headlamp's internals are tweaked a little to infuse some freshness.

The silhouette is unchanged, and it still looks premium with a prominent three-box nature rather than carrying a coupe-like roofline. The taillamps are revised affair, and they look every bit inspired by the C-class. The A-Class, however, has the typical Mercedes-Benz element in its design and does look expensive.

The design for alloy wheels is updated too, but the A-Class now boasts increased ground clearance. Resultantly, the ride is slightly noisy at highway speed, but it can tackle tall speed bumps with grace.

Changes to the powertrain include the omission of the diesel engine. Yes, it is now on sale with just the 1.3L turbo-petrol motor putting out 161 Bhp and 250 Nm of max torque. The transmission is a 7-speed DCT, and the A200 Limo can do 0-100 kmph in 8.71 seconds. The setup is neat and refined, but the diesel is highly missed.

The interior of the Mercedes-Benz A200 Limousine facelift retains its high-quality materials. This time around, it is more user-friendly with the inclusion of a new steering wheel with touch-enabled controls, wireless Android Auto & Apple CarPlay, and the deletion of the centre-console-mounted touchpad.

The rear seats of the 2023 Mercedes-Benz A-Class Limousine are spacious enough to use as a chauffeur-driven car. While the ride is slightly stiff, the opulence of the cabin makes up for it.

Sold in a single fully-loaded guise, the facelifted Mercedes-Benz A-Class comes with a large panoramic sunroof, multi-colour ambient lighting setup, dual-zone climate control, adaptive headlamps and more.

Priced at Rs 45.80 lakh (ex-showroom), the Mercedes-Benz A-Class Limousine facelift feels slightly expensive, although it makes up for its slightly-high price tag with the sumptuous-ness it offers on the inside and the elegant silhouette it possesses.
