Mercedes-Benz India has revealed a teaser for the AMG A 45 S hatchback on social media.

The hot-hatch is powered by a 2.0-litre, 4-cylinder turbo-petrol engine that produces 415 BHP and 500 Nm. An 8-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission delivers all that power to all four wheels via the 4Matic all-wheel drive system. Mercedes claims that the A45 S can accelerate from 0-100 km/h in just 3.9 seconds and has a top speed of 270 km/h.

The AMG A 45 S gets a Panamericana grille at the front and a roof spoiler at the back. The car rides on 19-inch alloy wheels.

The A45 S will be imported as a completely built unit (CBU) and is expected to be launched soon.
