The new Mercedes-AMG GLA 45 S 4MATIC+ in Iridium silver Driving Video

A brisk lap of the race circuit or a weekend trip to the mountains with your sports gear stowed in the back: the new GLA 45 4MATIC+ and GLA 45 S 4MATIC+ are the assured masters of a multitude of disciplines.

When required, these compact all-rounders can unleash a level of dynamic handling to impress even sports car owners.

The 2.0-litre engine is the most powerful series-produced four-cylinder turbo engine and is available in two output and torque versions.

Even the base model delivering 285 kW (387 hp) is more powerful than the previous model.

The S‑variant rated at 310 kW (421 hp) jostles with considerably higher vehicle classes.

The active, fully-variable AMG Performance 4MATIC+ all-wheel drive distributes the power to the rear axle wheel-selectively by AMG TORQUE CONTROL, so providing the basis for top traction in any driving conditions.

The AMG SPEEDSHIFT DCT 8G dual clutch transmission apportions the power within a split second to suit the specific driving situation.
