Mercedes-Benz Edition 1 Expert Review

The A-Class is one of the stylish hatchbacks around and the diamond front grille adds on to the existing style. The B-Class has been a luxury tourer and it retains the same styling even on the Edition 1. The cosmetic changes on the Edition 1 are a few. To begin with, both the A-Class and the B-Class now get Edition 1 stickers on the rocker.
