In 1993, Mercedes-Benz ventured into a completely new vehicle category with the revolutionary concept of Vision 93 Now the brand is once again presents a car that could come from another planet: the Mercedes Concept is the first impulse of a new generation, whose design means focusing on the expressive dynamism. Mercedes-Benz A-Class concept celebrates its debut at the Shanghai Motor Show (21-28 April 2011). Technical characteristics of this front-wheel drive concept is a new turbocharged four-cylinder petrol develops 155 kW (210 hp), dual-clutch gearbox and radar-based collision warning system and the Adaptive Brake Assist.
A long hood, low profile and thin areas of the window: the proportions of a class-concept is synonymous with dynamic focus. Its sporty appearance is given particular depth of the interaction between lines and surfaces. "The Concept A-Class introduced the new design idiom of Mercedes-Benz in the compact class with a sculptural interpretation of the light and expressive," says Gorden Wagener Professor, head of design at Mercedes-Benz. "We use the term "energy bomb" to express the great dynamic off a class-concept. Our sources of inspiration were formal, wind and waves, and aeronautical engineering, resulting from this 'cool'. "

2011 Mercedes-Benz Concept A-Class |
But it is not only visually, but also technically and Mercedes-Benz A-Class Concept is a compact, begins a new era in the Mercedes-Benz. This front-wheel drive model is powered by a four-cylinder gasoline engine with the new M270 series. And 'cross designed for installation, and thanks to direct injection and turbocharger provides high performance potential with minimal emissions and fuel consumption. Other highlights of the all-aluminum engine features an injection pressure of up to 200 bar and respond quickly to the piezo injectors.
The concept of Class A is equipped with two-liter version of the new engine that develops 155 kW (210 hp). This unit is combined with Mercedes-Benz BlueEFFICIENCY dual-clutch transmission. As a three-axis transmission, which has seven gears are changed automatically without interruption of power energy. The new transmission is particularly economical, sporty and comfortable.
The exterior design with sharp edges and a free game with body surfaces
An important feature of the new Mercedes-Benz idiom is the interaction between the expressive lines and surfaces - as designers call a "pure" concept. Thank you to concave and convex surfaces with light modulation that results, creating a unique sculpture like presence. The Concept A-Class continues this theme by categorically edges and surfaces defined interaction, such as Mercedes-Benz first demonstrated in the style F800. The side view is composed of three lines leading from the front edge structure forming a line down back, while the pronounced shoulder muscle on the rear axle of the car coupe-like character. Another line up in front of the rear wheel in a curve scan. These lines give more depth and dynamic side profile. The door handles are recessed into the door and come electrically at the push of a button.
Unusual, wing-like structure outside mirrors must be reflected in the flow and lightness. Another important feature is the open side skirt, creating an original lighting and shading effects. Remember the turbine rotor, a large 20-inch wheels reinforce the impression that Mercedes-Benz E-Class concept has been shaped by wind.
The front end of Mercedes-Benz Concept A is a real real attraction. The logo of the brand seems to be surrounded by a starry sky. Where there are usually openings or louvers, grille consists of a wide range of metallic silver "points" on the black stems. This theme is reflected in the design of the wheels.
Visually, the great strength back and oozes sportiness, and is also a lively interaction between the convex / concave and pronounced edges. Taillights follow the lines of muscular shoulders and back, emphasizing the breadth of their car horizontally. Aerodynamic spoiler in the rear lights to improve efficiency, while the diffuser creates downforce to support the communication.

Interior dominated by associations with the aviation engineering
The interior of the Mercedes A-Class Concept, which is flooded by light from the large panoramic roof, also appears to be from another planet. Several unusual features were inspired by aviation, while reflecting the ideas of "Mercedes-Benz Aesthetics 2" sculpture inside. Groups are minimized, for example, the dashboard and center console are just brushed aluminum structures. The result is a transparent, lightweight design effect bionics.
As a very striking feature within the concept A-Class, in the form of panels of an airplane wing and a translucent, elastic textile lining. Thank you for this sophisticated substance which is vapor coated with particles of chromium, the cellular structure of bionic dashboard is still visible - its design reminiscent of a fabric-covered aircraft wing, if the spacers in predicate are significant. Dramatic backlighting makes the instrument carrier seems especially futuristic. Thank you for the transparent management of high-tech coating, and the absence of a conventional support structure, the panel appears to float. Lines continue in the door panels as vapor trails of jet wings.
Shaped vents in the dashboard is also inspired by the engines of a jet. The translucent, backlit vents change their color depending on temperature, the residents selected for the climate control system: they are blue, cold, fresh air is directed inward, but the red if the flow air is heated. The poster player in the instrument cluster, which was inspired by the afterburner of a jet engine, is also red. The central control system is designed as an aircraft panel with a high-tech gear stick as a "control of the stack." With their molded headrests and very pronounced lateral support, call the headquarters seat the pilot of a jet fighter in mind.
Titanium and silver tones are combined in a lightweight, elegant beige interior. Magenta produce stress that, unlike a car paint silver alubeam, which follows the dynamic forms, such as liquid silver exterior.
The Mercedes-Benz concept of using modern materials, such as high-tech coating on the dashboard, leather or metal, which is semi-aniline dyed with metallic pigments and nubuck leather design and quality. This builds a bridge between the tradition of 125 years of Mercedes-Benz and its claim to progressiveness.

Projectors with fiber optics produce a unique effect on
Just create a special effect lights, Mercedes-Benz concept of class, innovative, high-performance full-LED headlamp grille another reason to heaven with a number of light points. Daytime running lights consisting of 90 optical fibers with aluminum sleeves, and are arranged in the form of wings inside the projector. Tentacle-like shape of the individual fibers spread of light sources to create a dramatic contrast between the soft and hard.
From any perspective, an unusual effect is created by the LED indicators that seem to float freely in the headlights like an air bubble in a closed bottle of perfume. The indicators are installed in six rooms on the top of the headlight unit plexiglass and vapor coated reflectors are invisible.
As has already been brought to maturity of the Mercedes CLS series, LED headlights, high-performance Mercedes-Benz A-Class Concept combines the Intelligent Light System with LED technology. The projection of the module with LED headlights are no longer round, but flatter and more athletic. This impression is reinforced non-sport case made of carbon fiber, which is incompatible with the form of aluminum surround projection.
Optical fibers with aluminum sleeves are also used in the taillights. 120 points of fiber optic lighting in the form of each group in C-shaped rear light to create a unique visual effect, with its subtle sheen. They are well lit for the function of brake lights. During braking, the band continues between the two poles of light from the backlight is also lit to make the Mercedes A-Class appear even broader concept. Indicators are autonomous elements in the center of the rear lights. The basic unit is the tail light carbon fiber, with elements that provide a visual depth of red.
New aid and braking reduces the risk of rear-end collisions
The concept of class, the safety of the pioneers of Mercedes-Benz is showing a new milestone in the democratization of technology in car safety: the concept car is equipped with a collision warning radar-based assistance braking adaptation - a world first in the compact segment. This system provides an audible and visual warning that a driver can not pay attention, and prepares the Brake Assist for an answer to an absolute accuracy of braking is initiated when the driver operates the brake pedal strongly.
Unlike other systems available on the market for the compact segment, the new Brake Assist Assist collision avoidance is not just an urban traffic system designed to minimize the effects of minor collisions. Instead of this innovative solution is designed to provide protection against typical rear-end collisions in all driving situations. Mercedes-Benz says the new security system to have a significant positive impact on accident statistics. After detailed analysis of accident data, Mercedes-Benz safety experts believe that this radar technology can help prevent 20 percent of rear-end collisions, and reduce the severity of a further 25 percent.
