I saw one on the road just this morning & I live in Geneva, true story. It looked pretty damn slick.

Edmunds is reporting that the USA won't get the hatchback for some time (if ever), saying that MB will introduce the A-class to the USA in conventional sedan format, to be followed by a mini-SUV version.

Anything but the dreaded and despised hatchback, I guess As Edmunds said, “Selling a new, cheaper line of cars is a tricky proposition for Mercedes. It needs to go smaller and less expensive while maintaining its reputation for high quality and prestige. Not easy to do with a hatchback in the States.” .
