Mercedes benz Amg A 45 S Price in India 2026

The heart of the A 45 S is the M139 2.0-litre turbocharged engine, the most powerful four-cylinder in series production. It produces a staggering 421 hp (310 kW) and 500 Nm of torque. The engine is rotated 180 degrees compared to standard A-Class units, allowing the turbocharger and exhaust manifold to sit at the rear (near the firewall) for better aerodynamics and shorter air ducting.

The A 45 S delivers blistering acceleration, hitting 100 km/h in just 3.9 seconds. While standard German performance cars are capped at 250 km/h, the A 45 S comes standard with a top speed of 270 km/h. It features RACE START (launch control) for consistent, high-traction getaways.

Power is managed by the AMG SPEEDSHIFT DCT 8G dual-clutch transmission. The 4MATIC+ fully variable all-wheel-drive system features AMG TORQUE CONTROL in the new rear-axle differential. It uses two electronically controlled multi-plate clutches to distribute power not just between the front and rear, but also between the left and right rear wheels—enabling the famous Drift Mode.

The A 45 S measures 4,453 mm in length and is significantly wider than a standard A-Class at 1,850 mm to accommodate the wider track. For the Indian market, it has an unladen ground clearance of approximately 120 mm. The kerb weight is roughly 1,650 kg, balanced by high-performance suspension and structural reinforcements.

Despite its track-focused nature, it remains a practical 5-door hatchback with 370 litres of boot space (expanding to 1,210 litres with seats folded). The fuel tank holds 51 litres. The interior is fitted with AMG Performance seats that provide extreme lateral support during high-G cornering.

The A 45 S is equipped with 7 airbags and carries a 5-star rating from Euro NCAP. Advanced tech includes AMG Track Pace, a virtual race engineer that records lap and sector times. For road safety, it features Active Brake Assist, Lane Keeping Assist, and Blind Spot Assist as standard.

The cabin features the Widescreen Cockpit with dual 10.25-inch displays running the latest MBUX with AMG-specific styles like "Supersport." It includes a 12-speaker Burmester® Surround Sound system (710W output) and AMG Real Performance Sound, which channels the actual engine note into the cabin for a more immersive experience.

In India, the AMG A 45 S 4MATIC+ is priced at approximately ?93.65 Lakh (ex-showroom). Service intervals are every 15,000 km or 1 year. A key maintenance detail for this high-performance engine is the 2,000-mile (3,200 km) break-in service for the rear-axle differential to ensure long-term reliability of the complex 4MATIC+ system.
