From the back it looks like a RunX, with a hint of the BMW 1 series in the front and some Opel OPC.

In the pics, rear end looks a bit like the Audi A3 hatch, nice young mommy car, for the yuppies and fashion conscious, not for me. Thanks for the pics, at least you did something at work today :mocking: , hey Werner?

Hope it's not a total disaster like the current A-class, I think even a Tata is better value for money than the current one.

Looks nice and sporty but it doesn't do it for me ....... nothing really unique or eye-catching and the only thing that looks like Merc is the grille. The rest looks like a merry mix of styling copied from Hyundai, BMW and Audi .... even the front looks a bit like a Kia. :eh:
