All the press releases mention the new 5 and 6 speed gearboxes and the CVT but they don't mention if the manuals are clutchless like the current one. Does anyone know whether the new manuals will be clutchless again??

Tha manuals are not clutchless (AKS). It was only available for extra money but they skipped it some time ago. But it was great, I had it in my A160 Avantgarde.

Clutchless manual

Here in Australia the current manuals are still FunShift only. I love the funshift, hopefully they will carry it over to the W169.

I like it but its too much off an evolution and not enough off a revolution. MB should have really done a better job to compete against something like the Mini Cooper.

Evolution v revolution

If the interior is not a revolution then not sure what is?? Problem with changing a shape too much is that it puts off all the current customers so your back to square one getting a piece of the market. I would like to see something a bit more funky on the outside but when you look at the majority of customers that buy A-Class, you can understand why MB didn't go too radical like BMW. Suppose its a case of MB learning from BMW mistakes or shortcomings like BMW learned from the MB M-Class??

this car is cute as hell man i want it as my pillow..
And nope they would not make it like the Mini cooper cause MB wants to market this car as a mini mpv thing, Also this body style adds more practical value .. Love it! Previous generation sold 1.1Million units ... This one should beat that by another 25 % atleast... Imagine a small car and Multikontour seats ...
