It doesn't mean if on paper they seem similar, on the road they are completely different. Another thing, if they had to make a test don't take the cars up some messed up road go on a drag see how all 3 compare and get the m135i xdrive and go on a circuit see how they all do based on laptime. Yes the Gti is the benchmark/icon when it comes to hatchbacks and they will always improve gradually, but Mercedes really? I sat in the a250 amg and I felt like a squashed bug in the rear seats, ac knobs are too low apart from the cheap plastic bits. Now that my rant is over sorry guys, all 3 cars are nice, lovely test, but my money would be on the bmw then Gti then Mercedes. Common bring on the mk7r vs rs3 vs a45 vs m2 now that would be a hell of a test.

+1!
Mercedes has been really stepping up their game lately~
But for a fair comparison, aside from them being "hot hatches" I thought I remember reading a statement from Mercedes Benz that they are gearing that A45/CLA45 towards the 1M/M2 segment? Wouldn't that be a much fairer comparison since it would be Mercedes's entry level AMG VS. BMW's entry level M? I think I'm going have to wait for the comparison between the CLA45 Vs. 1M/M2 before making a judgement~
What raffoul232 said, mk7r vs rs3 vs a45 vs m2 would definitely be proper!
