Spy Shots: Mercedes A-Class, the last tests before they take to grips with the BMW 1 Series

Mercedes plans to launch later this year art class A rival BMW's 1 Series. It seems that currently we can only enjoy the photos captured by spy photographers, the car is camouflaged and protected by the watchful eyes of the press. One thing is certain: and A-Class gets to "pay" for new models of Mercedes-Benz.

While BMW camouflage their cars with stickers of testing black Mercedes cars prefer to cover with plastic protection. 5-door hatchback in the pictures below is the new A-Class 2012 Mercedes was redesigned to compete with the BMW 1 Series, Audi A3 cars and other "short" segment.

For the new generation, Mercedes chose an entirely new platform and gave the appearance of the minivan's body, adopting a 5-door hatchback form. Although we have seen in exhibitions in New York and Shanghai Mercedes A-class concept in 3-door production car is different.

The 2012 apparently will be released later this year will have a new range of engines and the 1.6-liter 4-piston gasoline 122 hp and 156 hp 1.8 turbo-diesel engine of 109 and 136 hp. It will be a 2-liter turbo gasoline 200 hp, which is the top version, in addition to any AMG versions.

Mercedes-Benz A Class will be launched this year that sales will begin in 2012.
