2015 Mercedes-Benz GLA45 AMG 2.0-liter turbo 355hp

 Highlighted by the most powerful 4-cylinder production engine in the world, the all-new 2015 GLA45 AMG is equipped to live up to life's high expectations—then blow past them. 

That's because its AMG high-performance turbo engine produces 355 hp and 332 lb-ft of torque, with an output of 178 hp per liter, which is on a par with the world's most powerful super-sports cars.

  The GLA45 AMG also features the advanced AMG SPEEDSHIFT DCT (Dual-Clutch Technology) 7-speed sport transmission and is armed with the fully-variable AMG Performance 4MATIC all-wheel-drive system.

  Add an AMG sport suspension and AMG high-performance braking system, and you've got a clear picture of the kind of dynamic capability that lies underneath its exclusive AMG body, accented by a completely new AMG logo on the grille.

 With the arrival of the GLA45 AMG in dealerships in the fall, Mercedes-AMG will offer the widest range of high-performance premium SUVs in the U.S.

 Best in class: the GLA45 AMG engine fully lives up to this claim, as a look at the figures shows. The AMG 2.0-liter turbo engine is the most powerful series- production four-cylinder turbo engine in the world. It produces 355 hp of power and develops a peak torque of 332 lb-ft. A power output of 178 hp puts the AMG high-performance turbo engine on a par with the world's most powerful super sports cars

 The GLA45 AMG also holds pole position with regard to driving dynamics: it accelerates from zero to 0-60 mph in 4.8 seconds and reaches a top speed of 155 mph (electronically limited). Thanks to the combination of standard performance-oriented AMG 4MATIC four wheel drive and AMG SPEEDSHIFT DCT 7-speed sports transmission, the GLA45 AMG impresses with its equally sporty and efficient drive system concept.

 Mercedes-AMG rigorously continues its product initiative: with the new GLA45 AMG the performance brand of Mercedes-Benz makes a dynamic statement in the strongly growing segment of compact SUVs. 

 The combination of powerful-distinctive design, exclusive appointments as well as superior engine power and driving performance is unique: the most powerful series-production four-cylinder engine in the world puts 355 hp of power and 332 lb-ft of torque on the road.
