The boot has a capacity of 420 litres.
4. The A-Class sedan's cabin is largely identical to its hatchback counterpart with a well-equipped dashboard larger fully-digital instrument cluster paired with a fully-digital infotainment system. The dashboard also features the signature rotor-like chrome air-con vents, a multi-functional new steering wheel, and a smart-looking centre console in piano black finish.
5. Like the A-Class hatchback, the sedan model also comes with the MBUX multimedia system - Mercedes-Benz User Experience - with artificial intelligence. The system comes integrated with WeChatMyCar app along with features like - Apple CarPlay and Android Auto along with wireless charging areas for your smartphone.
6. Mercedes-Benz A-Class L Sedan for the Chinese market gets the new all-aluminium 1.33 litres four-cylinder engine with power outputs of 134 bhp and 161 bhp. The car also gets a 2-litre four-cylinder engine that churns out around 188 bhp. Both the engines come with a 7G-DCT dual clutch transmission as standard.
