Used Mercedes A-Class hatchback cars for sale

Petrol A-Class hatchbacks offer 355 litres of boot space, while diesel versions offer 10 litres less – likely due to the placement of the AdBlue tank. The A250e plug-in hybrid has slightly less again at 310 litres because it has a battery to provide electric-only driving.

At 4,419mm long, the Mercedes A-Class hatchback is fractionally longer than the BMW 1 Series and Audi A3 hatchbacks. Width restrictors won't cause any issues with the A-Class, which is 1,992mm wide, while the height of the car is 1,440mm – rising to 1,997mm when the boot is open.

Insurance groups for the Mercedes A-Class hatchback are a bit higher than some compact hatchbacks but shouldn't be prohibitively expensive for most drivers. The A180d diesel occupies groups 18 and 19 (out of 50), while the A180 petrol is in groups 20 and 21. A200 petrol and A200d diesel engines take up groups 23 and 24, and A250-badged versions sit in groups 28 to 32.
