Like the title suggest. I’m having a hard time deciding between a200 and a250.

I’m a town driver, I maybe travel long distance less than 20 times a year. The power of the a250 is so tempting but I doubt I need it most of the time. Other than the power, any other benefits of getting a250 over the 200?

I also feel it’s enough. Just that after feeling the a250 power I’m kinda on the fence.

Yes this is my no.1 concern. The Renault collab engine and the normal suspension on the a200. I’ve booked the a250 but thinking if I should get the 200 instead

if u have family i think a250 is better choice, rear seat not really comfortable compare with multilink ... prices different around 20-23%, yah hard choice but already go so far for mercedes why not choose better spec n true merc tongue.gif ....

The prices is not a big difference....

That additional 40k is only like few hundred at most each month of loan. Get a250 and enjoy a true merc

A200 is for people who just wants to drive the cheapest of the brand's model and be proud of it only

A250 is the choice, also extra power doesn't mean only use for highway or must drive fast, the key thing is when you want it you got it concept tongue.gif
out of topi a bit....why not consider W205 rather W177? W205 material quality is much more better comparing W177

Outgoing model leh. 6 yrs already. Spyshots of W206 are lurking on the net so might as well just wait.

Btw the price difference is small to justify going for the lower end variant.

W205 just did the refresh FL on C200 AMG line this year with 2.0L engine.
RRP for C200 AMG line just RM251k comparing A250 AMG line RM259k in MBM website.

W206 not officially in the market and take sometime to come in MY....instead of keep on waiting for 'new' model, you could just enjoy now icon_rolleyes.gif

A200 is running on a 1.3L Renault/Nissan engine. Rear torsion beam suspension like those Vios, City, Yaris alike

A250 with a proper Mercedes 2.0L engine. Rear multi-link suspension.

A200 definitely more than enough for city driving.

But, A250 is for SHOWOFF. Lol. Ya, majority 3 star owner not drive like rempit like myvi owner. but still they get at least A250. I even bump A45amg drive leisure.

Its a status tbh. U will definitely not need A250 power, but the badge is something liao.

And malaysia people, u knowla, A200,B200,C200,E200 all underpowered according to them. They will talk, "Aiyo this car drive slow because it cannot go fast", at the same time redline their axia 1.0 just for keep up with all this base conti.
