AutoExec Summary
The Mercedes-Benz A-Class will continue to be produced until at least 2026, despite plans to discontinue many of the brand’s more affordable models. The company has delayed its target for electric vehicles to account for 50 per cent of its global sales from 2025 to 2030, and will now include plug-in hybrids in that goal. The A-Class’ SUV sibling, the GLA, is priced at $68,900, while its electric EQA sibling is priced at $82,300. Mercedes-Benz will offer just four vehicles on its new MMA architecture, including electric variants. The first MMA-based production vehicle is expected to debut this year.
