The Mercedes A-Class has been on the market for a couple of years, so the company is preparing a minor facelift for their entry-level hatchback.

Recently caught by our spy photographers, this lightly camouflaged prototype suggests we can expect a minor refreshing that includes a new front bumper and modified lighting units. The model should also get an updated interior with revised switchgear and a larger infotainment system display.

Engine options will likely carryover from the facelifted B-Class, so expect a variety of petrol and diesel options including everything from a 1.5-liter (1461cc) four-cylinder with 90 PS (66 kW) to a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder that develops 211 PS (155 kW) and 350 Nm (258 lb-ft) of torque.
