The Original Model: A Revolution in the Premium Compact Segment
The Mercedes-Benz A 45 AMG was launched in 2013 as the German brand's response to Audi RS3 and BMW M135i. This model marked a turning point in Mercedes-Benz's strategy, democratizing access to AMG performance in a compact format appealing to a younger clientele.
Equipped with a 2.0 turbo 4-cylinder engine producing 360 horsepower in its initial version, later upgraded to 381 horsepower, the A 45 AMG held the record for specific power for a mass-produced four-cylinder engine. Its 4MATIC all-wheel drive and dual-clutch automatic transmission allowed it to dash from 0 to 100 km/h in just 4.2 seconds.
The commercial success was immediate, propelling Mercedes-Benz to the top of the premium sporty compact segment and significantly contributing to the brand image rejuvenation.
Mercedes-AMG: The Legacy of Performance
During the development of the A 45 AMG, the Mercedes-AMG division already had over forty years of expertise in automotive preparation. Founded in 1967 by Hans Werner Aufrecht and Erhard Melcher, AMG established itself as the benchmark for high-performance engines for Mercedes-Benz.
The full integration of AMG within the Mercedes-Benz group in 2005 accelerated the development of accessible models like the A 45. This democratization of AMG technologies within the compact range represented a major technical challenge: adapting AMG's performance DNA to a transverse architecture, a first for the Affalterbach division.
This strategy was part of Mercedes-Benz's ambition to conquer new markets while preserving the technical excellence that historically characterizes its sportiest productions.
A Revolutionary Technical Feat
The story of the A 45 AMG is inseparable from a remarkable technical achievement: its M133 engine was the first production four-cylinder to exceed the symbolic mark of 180 horsepower per liter. This exceptional performance resulted from bold technological innovations, including a sophisticated cooling system with an engine oil radiator and supercharger intercooler.
Even more surprisingly, AMG engineers specifically developed for this model an artificial sound transmitted in the cabin. This "AMG Sound System" technology used the car radio speakers to amplify and enrich the engine noise, compensating for the advanced soundproofing of the compact sedan.
The A 45 AMG also marked Mercedes-Benz's debut in the realm of digital automotive marketing. The brand organized virtual events allowing enthusiasts to test the vehicle on a simulator, creating a community of ambassadors well before the first deliveries.
This innovative approach contributed to making the A 45 AMG a cultural phenomenon transcending the simple automotive realm, inspiring numerous artistic creations and collaborations with influencers of the time.

Frequently Asked Questions
How to understand the scales of miniatures?
Scale indicates the reduction ratio between the real car and the miniature. For example, at 1:43 scale, each centimeter on the miniature corresponds to 43 centimeters on the real vehicle.
Concretely, a 1/18 scale Ferrari model is approximately 25-30 cm long, while in 1/43 scale it measures approximately 10 cm.
What scales are available?
Our model cars are mainly offered in 1/43, 1/24, 1/18 and 1/87 (HO) scales. The scale is always indicated in the product sheet.
The smaller the second number, the larger the model car (e.g. 1/18 is larger than 1/43).
Does the model car come with protection?
Yes, each model car is systematically delivered in its protective box. This box preserves the collectible value and protects your model car from dust and shocks.
How is my package protected during transport?
We package each order with the utmost care: bubble wrap, appropriate cushioning, and polystyrene. Your model car is perfectly secure during its journey.
What is the delivery time?
In-stock items are shipped within 24-48 hours. Please allow 2-3 business days for France via Colissimo or 4-5 days via Mondial Relay.
