The Mercedes A160 is a tiny city hatch with a tall body and clever packaging, great for squeezing into spaces that make SUVs break out in hives.
Performance is modest and the ride can feel busy on rough Aussie tarmac, but it’s frugal and easy to pilot around town.
Cabin space is surprisingly usable for the footprint, though rear room and refinement are hardly limousine; materials and tech feel dated now, naturally.
Known sore points include ageing electronics, CVT/Autotronic transmission issues, suspension bushes and the odd creak from interior plastics—buy on service history, not badges.
