The W176-generation Mercedes-Benz A-Class was the renaissance model that made people forget its predecessors. It looked the part and was a sales success that attracted the younger demographics. Once sold around the RM 200k mark, a used W176 Mercedes A-Class can be found listed for as low as RM 88k, which is in the region of a brand-new Toyota Yaris or Honda City Hatchback. If that sounds attractive and you’re considering a used W176, you’ve come to the right place. How many variants are there? T

Mercedes-Benz has pulled the covers off the facelifted W177 hatchback and V177 sedan Mercedes-Benz A-Class.

Malaysians said goodbye to these 12 models in 2021 Some were discontinued due to poor sales, others due to age Which will you miss fondly? Once again, the big blue planet that we currently reside on has made its full orbit around the sun and the year 2020 v2.0 2021 ends. While some might remain optimistic that 2022 might be better with a huge array of upcoming models, we’d like to dedicate this article to the cars that won’t make it into the new year.
