Looking to buy a used Mercedes A-Class in Portugal? Explore listings for A180, A200, and the efficient A250e. Automar.pt brings you top Mercedes-Benz deals to help you find the ideal used car at the right price.
The W177 A-Class offers 1.3-litre and 2.0-litre petrol engines (A 160 to A 250), 1.5-litre and 2.0-litre diesels (A 160d to A 220d), and a plug-in hybrid A 250 e with 218 hp. The performance AMG A 35 delivers 306 hp, while the AMG A 45 S produces 421 hp from a handcrafted 2.0-litre turbo.
Used W177 A-Class models (2018+) in Portugal range from approximately 18,000 EUR for a base A 160 to over 35,000 EUR for a well-equipped A 250 AMG Line. The previous W176 generation starts from around 10,000 EUR, offering Mercedes ownership at a more accessible price point.
The A 180d diesel achieves approximately 4.5 to 5.5 litres per 100 km in mixed driving, while the A 200 petrol manages 6.0 to 7.0 l/100 km. The A 250 e plug-in hybrid can deliver under 1.5 l/100 km on the WLTP cycle, with approximately 70 km of electric-only range for daily Portuguese commutes.
The Renault-sourced 1.3-litre petrol engine in the A 160 and A 200 has reported timing chain wear issues on some early production units. The dual-clutch DCT gearbox can exhibit hesitation in low-speed traffic. W177 models may also experience occasional MBUX system freezes resolved by software updates.
The A-Class leads the segment with its MBUX infotainment system and interior ambience, creating a notably more premium feel than the A3 or 1 Series. The BMW offers the sportiest driving experience with its rear-wheel-drive platform, while the Audi A3 provides the most balanced package. In Portugal, the A-Class outsells both rivals.
The 2020-2022 A-Class models are recommended, as they benefit from production maturity, resolved early software issues, and updated MBUX functionality. The A 200d with the 2.0-litre diesel (from 2021) avoids the Renault 1.5 engine entirely, offering superior refinement and reliability.
