Lorinser has developed a custom
exhaust system for three entry-level gasoline-powered Mercedes A-Class models. This means that if you own the A
160, A 180 or the A 200 variant, your premium hatchback will sound as if it
produces more than 109 PS, 136 PS or 163 PS respectively. Unfortunately, the official video tied into this release doesn’t
provide sufficient noise so as to understand just how loud the cars are.
In any case, in order to get the exhaust system, the
prerequisite is that the car has to be equipped with the AMG package from the
factory, otherwise Lorinser won’t be able to match the muffler to the new rear
diffuser.
As for the aero kit, the package includes custom front
and rear bumper add-ons, the attachments for the air intakes, rear diffuser
with tailpipes, and RS8 19-inch alloy wheels, which are also used on the
Lorinser Green Series special edition. Customers can also opt for the
RS9-series wheels, as well as various power modules for A 220, A 220 4-Matic, A
250, A 250 4-Matic, AMG A 35 4-Matic, A 160, A 180, A 180d and A 200 models.
Pricing meanwhile is as follows: any power module
will set you back € 1,499, while the wheels cost roughly € 2,500. The front splitter is € 820, the rear diffuser with tailpipes
€ 2,040, the Aero flaps € 642 and the Sport Exhaust System is
€ 1,799.
