The 2022 Mercedes-Benz A-class is a small car with the heart of an S-class luxury sedan. The expensive-looking façade helps it look right at home among the rest of the Benz lineup, and its modern, tech-filled cabin delivers much the same experience as pricier models. A turbocharged four-cylinder drives either the front or all four wheels, and the A-class's handling is fairly spry. We'll admit that it's not as quick as the related AMG-tuned CLA35, but it's still engaging to drive. Compared to rivals such as the BMW 2-series Gran Coupe and the Cadillac CT4, the A-class offers a more cohesive package and is more desirable than either of those entry-level luxury compact cars. Only one change is in store for the A-class this year: The optional Premium package now includes SiriusXM satellite radio. Mercedes has also confirmed that 2022 will be the last model year for the A-class, as it will be discontinued for the U.S. market after that. The A220 comes with a full selection of standard equipment, and we think this version of the A-class will be a great match for most buyers who are interested in this sedan. Connecting the car to the pavement are 17-inch rims, and the list of exterior features includes automatic LED headlights, rain-sensing windshield wipers, and heated side mirrors with integrated turn signals. All models come with a panoramic sunroof that lets natural light into the cabin. Passengers enjoy standard features such as eight-way power-adjustable front seats, simulated leather upholstery, and dual-zone automatic climate control. You'll probably want to add the Premium package ($1750), which adds upscale amenities such as a 10.3-inch touchscreen, SiriusXM satellite radio, an auto-dimming rearview mirror, and power-folding side mirrors. With the 2022 A-class, the sole engine choice is a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder that generates 188 horsepower and 221 pound-feet of torque. Front-wheel drive is standard with the A220, while the A220 4Matic has all-wheel drive. A seven-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission handles gearchanges. The A220 4Matic we tested hustled from to 60 mph in 6.1 seconds. That's a bit slower than the last A3 we tested, which made the sprint in 5.5 seconds when equipped with its most powerful engine. We noticed that the front-drive A-class sedan traveled with less impact harshness than the heavier all-wheel-drive model. Still, both deliver a ride quality that's reasonably comfortable and poised. Steering is precise, throttle response is superb, and there's almost no turbo lag.
