Mercedes-Benz’s AMG arm surprised us today with the release of a teaser video of a new Concept car, which may not be named in the title, but we can clearly see from the footage that it’s the GLA 45 AMG.
No word yet on where Mercedes will unveil the production-ready study, however, since we have three international shows going on this week in Los Angeles, Tokyo and in Guangzhou, China, so we could see it in any of the three.
Since they are related, the AMG versions of Benz’s compact crossover will likely adopt the entire powertrain from the A45 AMG comprising a 2.0-liter turbocharged inline four producing 355HP (360PS) and 450 Nm (332 lb-ft), a dual-clutch seven-speed transmission and all-wheel drive.
We’ll keep an eye open and bring on the updates as soon as we get them.
