Prior to the Geneva Motor Show starting next week on the 6th March, an unknown dealer from Hungary (this information is yet to be confirmed) thought it would be a great idea to leak an image from an internal brochure of the new A-Class onto the web, which happens to be celebrating the world premiere in just a few days at the European automotive salon.
While tracing the culprit and punishing him from breaking the normal press embargo could both be easy and tricky at the same time for Mercedes-Benz, for us, the fans, this is a good moment to know what to expect from the new premium compact model, even though the magic of the official unveiling may have been a bit dented already. After meeting the front fascia of the A-Class during a photo shootout in the Canary Islands, it's now time to face the rear end, which seems to bare some reminiscence from the concept car, but altogether it looks to have been rather tamed down. Given the exterior appointments, the photographed vehicle was probably wearing the popular AMG Sports Package, which successfully manages to give the little Merc a dynamic and powerful presence throughout the muscular protection bumper, the lateral air inlets and the black diffuser which incorporates the double exhaust pipes.
