Mercedes A 250: what you need to know
Well-argued answers to the most asked questions about this model, based on Caralogy data and simulations.
Where does the A 250 rank in its segment?
Among the 138 compacts 2017–2021, the A 250 ranks 106th of 134 in Combined consumption (6.5 L/100, behind the BMW 216d Steptronic), 34th of 138 in 0–100 km/h (6.2 s, behind the BMW M140i xDrive).
How much does the A 250 cost to run?
Running costs depend on your profile (mileage, charging type, city/highway mix). Use the Caralogy consumption simulator for a personalised estimate.
Why not a BMW 216d Steptronic instead?
The BMW 216d Steptronic leads in Combined consumption (3.9 L/100 vs 6.5 L/100). The choice depends on your priorities: check the A 250 vs BMW 216d Steptronic duel for a detailed comparison.
How does Caralogy calculate its figures?
Caralogy does not reproduce manufacturer figures: we recalculate every number through physics simulation, starting from SCx, mass and the power curve. This is why our figures at 130 km/h differ from WLTP. Full methodology on the dedicated page.
