2020 Mercedes-Benz A-Class Sedan - New A250e Hybrid https://youtu.be/b-7mFFKEx9U
Mercedes has unveiled a pair of new plug-in hybrid vehicles, with a claimed all-electric range of around 40 miles
Mercedes has launched plug-in hybrid variants of the A-Class and B-Class, called the A 250 e and B 250 e respectively. The A 250 e will be priced from £32,500 for the hatchback and £33,100 for the saloon, while the B 250 e MPV will start from £33,700. All three models will be available to order in October, with first deliveries expected in early 2020.
Merc’s PHEV powertrain comprises a turbocharged 1.3-litre four-cylinder petrol engine (lifted from the mid-range A 200), a 15.6kWh lithium-ion battery pack, and a 75kW electric motor. The powertrain is mated to an eight-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission, with total system output standing at 215bhp and 450Nm of torque.
s a result, the A 250 e hatch has a 0–62mph time of 6.6 seconds, a top speed of 146mph, and a claimed (WLTP-rated) all-electric range of between 37 and 42 miles. Mercedes also claims economy and emissions figures for the A 250 e hatchback, with the former standing at 188.3mpg and the latter between 33–34g/km of CO2.
The Saloon version of the A 250 e has a marginally slower 0–62mph time of 6.7 seconds, but a higher top speed of 149mph. Its all-electric range remains the same, while its economy and emissions figures stand at 201.7mpg, and between 32–33g/km of CO2.
Due to the B 250 e’s larger dimensions, it’s marginally slower and slightly less efficient than both A-Class PHEVs. Its 0–62mph time stands at 6.8 seconds and its all-electric range is reduced to between 35 and 42 miles. Economy and emissions figures are 176.5mpg and 32–36g/km of CO2 respectively, although its top speed stands at 146mph.
