The new Mercedes-Benz A-Class sedan has an ultra low drag coefficient of 0.22 Cd

Mercedes-Benz has announced that its next class A sedan will be the most aerodynamic car on sale. The company claims the new Class A sedan has a drag coefficient (Cd) of 0.22 and a front surface of 2.19 square meters. Mercedes-Benz says the new aerodynamic properties of the new class A sedan can be attributed to efforts to refine the shape of the car. The designers spent countless hours in the wind tunnel, while the use of virtual modeling techniques has helped to better understand the development of an optimal aerodynamic shape.

The new Class A sedan also benefits from a reduced frontal area, underbody panels to reduce aerodynamic disturbances at high speeds and a diffuser to effectively manage the air. The front and rear wheel wells, as well as the wheel and tire models, have also been refined to effectively channel air around the wheels. The aerodynamics greatly contributes to the driving of a car and has a significant effect on fuel economy.

The Mercedes-Benz A-Class sedan is based on the same MFA II platform that also underpins the B-Class and CLA sedan, which was also the most aerodynamically efficient sedan. before the new class A sedan.

The interior will be identical to the class A sedan, which means that it will also be funky and futuristic. It will also receive the Mercedes-Benz MBUX infotainment system with voice commands and the version of the Google Assistant or Apple's Siri
