Mercedes A45 AMG S To Get 380 Horsepower

Audi recently revealed the most powerful hot hatch on the market in the form of the new RS3 which took away the title from Mercedes-Benz. This photograph taken from a German magazine which gives us some details as to the new A45 AMG S ‘Facelift’ and its power output. The picture is a rendering of the A45 AMG S and inspiration has been taken from the new C63 but what is important is that it states the S version will get a 24 horsepower increase taking it to 380 hp and grabbing back the title of most powerful hot hatch. The sprint time will apparently improve by 0.1 seconds which means the 4.4 seconds to get to 100 km/h will still be slower than the RS3. Although this source has not been certified, I can believe these numbers but we will have to wait and see!
