Mercedes A-Class Specs, Engines & Dimensions (1997–2001)

Mercedes A-Class Engines and Transmissions

Every Mercedes A-Class engine offered here is a small gasoline unit sending power to the front wheels. The A140 1.4 MT and A140 1.4 AT share the smaller displacement, while the A160 1.6 MT brings a little more flexibility when the car is fully loaded. The transmission choice matters most in traffic, where an automatic eases constant stop-start driving.

Mercedes A-Class Trims and Equipment

Mercedes A-Class trim levels are tied to the technical version beneath them, so equipment is grouped by powertrain rather than spread evenly across the range. The A160 1.6 AT, for example, appears with the Standart configuration. Always check the equipment listed for the exact version you are viewing, since features rarely carry over between them.

A160 1.6 AT	Mini 5-doors	Standart
A190 1.9 AT	Mini 5-doors	Standart
