二手车指南:二手Mercedes-Benz A-Class W176最低只需RM 119k,你动心了吗?

自Volkswagen推出了Golf之后,小钢炮的风潮就逐渐席卷了整个世界。为了在这个市场中分一杯羹,Mercedes-Benz也推出了自家的小钢炮车型。而Mercedes-Benz A-Class不仅能够提供乐趣十足的驾驶体验(尤其是上一代W176车型),而且它也是Mercedes-Benz品牌的入门级车型。现在,一辆二手W176最低只需要RM 119,000就能买到,它值得你入手吗? 常见问题 为了了解A-Class W176车型的通病,我们咨询了位于Taman Melawati的Merz Auto Garage的Nizam先生。 W176最常见的问题就是氧传感器(O2传感器)失灵,这通常会让引擎报警灯亮起,而更换O2传感器通常需要RM 650左右。 与它的大哥E-Class有些相似的是,W176的轮速传感器也存在问题。在传感器故障的情况下,车子的煞车和稳定性控制系统也会受到影响。轮速传感器的更换费用为每个轮子RM 300左右。 W176的另一个通病,就是辅助电池组的故障问题。可能你还不知道,大部分德国车都有两组蓄电池。辅助电池组位于备胎的位置,是用来为车上的电子系统供电的。 对于

The original Baby Benz – The history of the Mercedes-Benz W201

When the Mercedes-Benz W201 made its debut in December 1982, its looks were far from unique. However, the entry-level model that slotted below the E-Class, S-Class, and SL-Class in Mercedes-Benz’s line-up has become a truly sought-after model and a symbol for the German brand’s future endeavour. The timeless shape and design were penned by Bruno Sacco. Its sharp lines were reminiscent of its siblings, giving it a very distinct, Teutonic Mercedes-Benz look. This W201 was also known as the Baby Be

Mercedes-Benz User Experience, or MBUX for short, is the company’s latest and greatest infotainment to date. How so?

All these can be done without the driver touching the air-conditioning controls. This is made possible by Linguatronic, Mercedes-Benz’s own ‘Siri’ voice command system.

The term was coined after Swedish car magazine Teknikens Varld flipped over a first-gen Mercedes-Benz A-Class in a test to measure the car’s ability to avoid hitting a moose, which is a common sight in Sweden.
