Mercedes Celebrates Winning F1 Title With Special Edition A 45 AMG

The special edition Mercedes-AMG A 45 2015 World Champion Edition wears the Petronas livery of the Mercedes formula 1 Auto together with numerous optional performance parts. All Champion Editions come loaded to the gills with equipment such as the AMG Dynamic Plus Package, which bundles a mechanical locking differential on the front axle, and an adjustable sport's suspension with a race mode. Meanwhile the alloys are a different situation, with only one option: 19-inch cross-spoke titanium grey with petrol green rim flange.

Mercedes-AMG A 45 4MATIC Champions Edition is a celebration of Mercedes' F1 success. "This is a way for every fan to share the success of Lewis Hamilton and Nico Rosberg". Dubbed in full (deep breath) the Mercedes-AMG A 45 4Matic Mercedes AMG Petronas 2015 World Champion Edition, the uber-hatch gains a smattering of "petrol green" highlights to match the winning F1 W06 Hybrid racer. There is also a "streamlining package" - at the front it includes a larger splitter as well as special flics, a roof spoiler and streamlined tail end. It will certainly be readily available in 3 colours- Hill Grey Metallic, Deisgno Hill Grey Magno, and also Polar Silver Metallic.

The interior comes with a model distinguishing badge on the lid of the stowage, compartment with the official lettering of the MERCEDES AMG PETRONAS Formula One Team.

As for the inside, you get a choice of leather or fabric seats, and a 2.0-litre four-cylinder petrol engine, which is mated to a seven-speed dual clutch gearbox, and sends power to all four wheels. The Performance steering wheel in DINAMICA microfibre boasts petrol green topstitching and a 12 o'clock mark in the same colour.

The special edition will be shown at this weekend's Abu Dhabi Grand Prix, and will go on sale in Europe next year, costing from around £46,000.
