A-Class "Polar Star" special editionStuttgart - Mercedes-Benz has augmented its successful A-Class line-up by introducing the new "Polar Star" special edition - a harmonious combination of sporty looks and elegant touches.
The new special edition is available in Saloon or Coupé guise and comes with a choice of three diesel engines (60 kW/82 hp to 103 kW/140 hp) and four petrol engines (70 kW/95 hp to 142 kW/193 hp). Thanks to the unique sandwich concept, the new special-edition model delivers the same outstanding benefits as the rest of the A-Class range, such as renowned Mercedes occupant safety, exemplary economy of space and exceptional variability. The interior space, for example, can be extended up to a length of 2.75 metres whilst the load capacity can be increased to 1995 litres. Furthermore, the A-Class sets new standards in terms of active safety and roadholding by virtue of innovations such as the parabolic rear axle with precise wheel location and excellent anti-roll control when cornering, not to mention a unique damping system which adapts the shock absorber response to the current driving situation, thus combining a high degree of ride comfort with dynamic handling. Highlights of the "Polar Star" special edition include: · An attractive sight and light package with automatically activated headlamps, a bulb failure indicator, a rain sensor for the windscreen wipers and a blue filter band for the windscreen · Large 16-inch light-alloy wheels with new, dynamic seven-spoke styling · Two new special metallic paint finishes - reef silver and mistral blue - or, as an alternative, cosmos black · New door trim strips with a black matt/high-sheen effect and discreet genuine-metal edging · Elegant brushed-aluminium trim elements on the centre console · Leather multifunction steering wheel, gearshift lever and handbrake lever · Cruise control · Radio with CD player · New-look, sporty seat fabric design · New floor mats designed specifically for the limited-edition model, with silver-coloured edging and "Polar Star" logo. This logo is also displayed on the triangular panel in front of both exterior mirrors.
