EXTERIOR

The A250 looks so fresh and youthful in the Sport variant. It’s looks sporty too unlike the previous generation vehicle which looked a bit hideous.

The car looks mean and aggressive with its low slung looks, sharp cuts and creases and those sweet 18 inch wheels.

The famed diamond grill adorning the Merc Logo.

Bi-xenon projector headlamps. Notice the attention to detail, Round red ring and MB Bi-Xenon engraving’s inside the projector.

Stylish LED taillights, along with twin Exhuasts.

MB engravings inside the tail lights.

Bright DRL’s.

Side profile looks really neat. Notice the cut on the rear bumper.

Clear view of the rear parking sensors and dual exhausts. Red strip above the exhausts to add a bit of sportiness.

The panoramic sunroof when open does make it look ugly as it just stands over the roof.

Huge 18″ Continental Sport alloy wheels with sporty red brake calipers.
