Mercedes-Benz turns up the heat on its 2016 A45 AMG to bypass the hot hatch competition

By Miles Branman Published June 29, 2015

The Mercedes-Benz A45 AMG is like forbidden fruit here in the U.S. Yes, we get its sibling, the equally powerful CLA45 AMG, but there’s something about a 355-horsepower hot hatch that just feels so right. Of course, Mercedes-Benz isn’t alone in playing “keep away” with muscle-bound hatchbacks from America; Audi keeps its RS3 Sportback off our roads too.

With those grievances laid out, Mercedes-Benz has updated its A Class for 2016, and turned up the heat on its A45 AMG to new levels. Instead of 355 HP, the face-lifted version now makes 376 HP and 351 pound-feet of torque. With a 21 HP and 18 lb-ft of torque bump over the current generation, the 2016 A45 AMG moves past the new Audi RS3’s 362 HP and regains the title of most powerful production hatchback. Its turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder doesn’t have an equal in the market right now.

Performance figures have been improved accordingly. Zero to 60 mph takes just 4.2 seconds now, an improvement of 0.4 seconds, while top speed remains limited at 155 mph. It’s not just the extra power that has helped its acceleration; the seven-speed dual clutch automatic transmission has been retuned for quicker shifts and shorter gear ratios.

A new Dynamic Plus Package adds a mechanical front-axle locking differential and AMG Ride Control sport suspension with two-stage adaptive damping. Also new for 2016 are driving modes: comfort, sport, sport +, and individual modes.

Styling tweaks are minimal, including a revised front fascia, standard diamond grill, LED headlights, and new graphics. Inside, the infotainment system has been increased to an 8.0-inch display with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto functionality.

If 376 HP just isn’t enough for you, an AMG S version is reportedly in the works with almost 400 HP. No doubt, Mercedes-Benz is putting on a strong front for incoming rivals like the Ford Focus RS and Volkswagen Golf R400. And while its absolute torture to only be able to hear about these super-powered hot hatches for the European market, I still firmly support these activities.

The 2016 A Class goes on sale July 3 with deliveries starting in September.

Kia EV4: everything we know so far

Kia EV4 Front

Kia is continuing to expand its electric car lineup. The EV6 and EV9 have both been out for some time now, and the company is in the middle of rolling out the EV3 in Europe, with a North American release expected next year. After that, it's likely the company will turn to the EV5. But what about after that? Well, that could be where the Kia EV4 comes in.

Kia announced a concept version of the EV4 at its EV Day in 2023, showing off a futuristic-looking hatchback that's seemingly a little smaller than the EV6, but keeps many design elements. Since then, Kia has confirmed very few details about it, though we have seen it shown off at other automotive events. Here's everything we know about the Kia EV4 so far.
Kia EV4 design
The Kia EV4, or at least the concept version of it, is smaller than the EV6, and much smaller than the EV9. It's actually closer in size to a sedan than anything else, though with its open trunk, it could be considered a hatchback. Regardless, it certainly blurs the line between the two. So much so, that in recent months we've actually seen a full hatchback version of the EV4 being tested -- and it's possible that Kia is pivoting the design of the EV4 entirely to be a hatch, or will be releasing both hatchback and sedan versions.
