There’s an arms race in the world of premium hot hatches that is pushing manufacturers to produce machines with ever-increasing power outputs. And Mercedes’ performance division, AMG, has comprehensively outgunned its competition with the ballistic 2021 A45S Plus.
With an incredible output of 421PS from its 2.0-litre turbocharged four-cylinder unit, it represents the most powerful production engine per-litre available today. This brutal, yet refined powerplant is capable of propelling the luxurious and technically-advanced hot hatch from a standstill to 60mph in just 3.9 seconds. Of course, this impressive figure owes much to the A45S’s ability to transmit this torrent of torque efficiently to the tarmac, a task that it does exceptionally well in all circumstances due to the AMG Performance 4-MATIC four-wheel drive system featuring the latest torque-splitting rear differential. This clever piece of kit uses multiple clutch plates to vary the power distribution to each wheel to provide unrivalled levels of traction, making the A45S the most dynamically rewarding premium 4WD hatch on the market today.
Presented in great condition with just 14,950 miles on the clock, this stunning A45S is a ‘Plus’ model, which means it comes with an array of highly desirable options, that when combined with the mesmerising Magno Grey Designo paint and Driver Assistance pack, add up to almost £9,300 which is every single factory extra available for the A45S from new.
In fact, the rare satin pigment, which shimmers with the muted brilliance of a shark’s skin in the sunlight, is a £1,795 option on its own. It is protected by XPEL front-end paint protection film which was applied by us in-house for its last owner, retaining its flawless finish.
But the A45S Plus is far more than just a brute of an engine with an exclusive paint job, as the luxurious interior and advanced technology within, is also a cut above its rivals. The two-tone black and titanium pearl grey leather with yellow stitching needs to be seen to be believed and, with swathes of tactile alcantara at all the main touch points, it’s truly a special place to be, for both the driver and passengers. The AMG Performance Recaro bucket seats are fully electric, including functions for heating, multi-contour lumbar support, pneumatically adjustable bolsters and even a massage function, meaning not only are they supportive for when you want to enjoy the A45 on a spirited drive, but are also some of the most comfortable sports seats available.
And that’s just the start of the A45’s endless options list, as extras such as a panoramic glass sunroof, adaptive damping suspension, 19inch forged wheels and a host of driver assistance and comfort tech including a sonically superior Burmester Premium sound system and AMG Virtual Cockpit, makes every drive an experience to remember.
Above and beyond the stellar specification of this class-leading hot hatch, is the detailers’ care that will be lavished on it. This includes a fastidious decontamination detail of the satin paintwork and multi-stage machine correction to gloss finish paintwork all completed in our bespoke detailing studio, guaranteeing that this example is the very best you will find anywhere on the market, this one-of-a-kind A45S is an opportunity that is simply too good to miss.
