Customers can opt for the AMG Track Pace package as part of the MBUX infotainment system that allows them to record vehicle-specific data like speed, acceleration and the likes while driving on a race track.
The fourth-gen A-Class' first AMG variant has a more dynamic styling achieved with the AMG radiator grille with twin louvres with silver chrome trims, a front splitter, 18-inch twin-spoke alloy wheels, AMG Line side sill, sporty rear bumper a diffuser, roof spoiler and twin exhaust pipes.

Mercedes-Benz hasn’t announced any plans to bring the Mercedes-AMG A 35 4MATIC to the Indian shores. However, if it does, this model will make for a great entry-point into the AMG range. In Europe, the market launch will take place in early 2019.
