Mercedes-Benz gives its smallest cars racy Edition R and Edition R+ specials
Mercedes-Benz has been rolling out sporty Edition Rs across its lineup, and now its smallest passenger cars have received the special-edition treatment. Not only that, but there are even hotter Edition R+ variants. All are available to order now. The special edition lineup is comprised of Edition R versions of the Mercedes-AMG A35 sedan and hatch and the CLA35 four-door 'coupe', and Edition R+ versions of the Mercedes-AMG A45 S hot hatch andCLA45 Ssports sedan. CarExpert can save you thousands on a new car. Click here to get a great deal. Over the standard A35 and CLA35, the Edition R adds: Power continues to come from a turbocharged 2.0-litre four-cylinder petrol engine producing 225kW of power and 400Nm of torque, mated with an eight-speed automatic transmission and an all-wheel drive system. The Edition R+ takes the A45 S and CLA45 S and adds AMG Performance Seats. The CLA45S Edition R+ also gains a fixed rear wing, a first for the flagship CLA. Edition R+ models, like the vehicles they're based on, use a turbocharged 2.0-litre four-cylinder petrol engine producing 310kW of power and 500Nm of torque. It's mated with an eight-speed automatic transmission and an all-wheel drive system. Despite the additional equipment, the Edition R and Edition R+ specials are no more expensive than the vehicles they're based on – and in most cases they're cheaper. Comparing list prices, the Edition R versions of the A35 are $3500 cheaper, while the special CLA is $4300 cheaper. The Edition R+ versions of the A45 and CLA45 are priced identically to the vehicles they're based on. Mercedes-Benz has previously offered Edition R versions of the AMG C43 and GLC43. While these special editions feature more aggressive styling than the vehicles they're based on, they're not the flashiest special editions to grace Mercedes' local showrooms. Late last year, the Mercedes-AMG A45 S Limited Edition was revealed for our market, featuring decals, extensive yellow accents and bright green paint, among other changes. The CLA is at the end of its lifecycle, with a new generation due in Australian showrooms next year – though hot AMG versions have yet to be revealed. The A-Class won't be replaced, but a report out of Europe has confirmed the end of production for the current model has been postponed from 2026 to 2028.

2025 Mercedes-AMG C43 almost $20k cheaper despite more power, equipment
The Mercedes-AMG C43 has received an $18,500 price cut, even as it has gained extra performance and standard equipment. Available to order now, the updated C43 is priced at $123,800 before on-road costs. Its turbocharged 2.0-litre four-cylinder engine now produces 310kW of power – up 10kW – and 500Nm of torque. It features a 48V mild-hybrid system, a nine-speed automatic transmission and all-wheel drive, and can do the 0-100km/h dash in 4.3 seconds. Hundreds of new car deals are available through CarExpert right now. Get the experts on your side and score a great deal. Browse now. Mercedes-AMG previously quoted a 4.6-second sprint time for the C43, which launched here in 2023. Standard equipment for the C43 now includes: "Following the strong demand for the limited Mercedes-AMG C 43 Edition R launched last year, the base model Mercedes-AMG C 43 4MATIC receives performance-oriented upgrades to its carefully edited standard specification and is now available at a sharper price point," the company explained in a release. Last year's Edition R saw the C43 gain all of this extra equipment – if at the expense of some other accoutrements – for a lower price tag of $112,600 before on-road costs. The limited edition model swapped Mercedes' Digital Light headlights with Adaptive High Beam Assist Plus for regular LED headlights with adaptive high-beam, and lost stop-and-go assist for its adaptive cruise control, augmented reality for its satellite navigation, and heat- and noise-insulating acoustic glazing. These features remain on the C43, as do the following: The C43 is Mercedes-AMG's rival to the Audi S5 and BMW M340i xDrive, which remain more affordable even after this price cut at $114,900 and $117,600 before on-roads, respectively. The Mercedes has them beat in terms of power, pumping out 40kW more than the S5 and 25kW more than the M340i, but the BMW matches it in torque and the Audi produces an extra 50Nm. The C43 slots in under the C63 S E Performance, which gains a plug-in hybrid system and takes on the BMW M3.
