[VIDEO] Mercedes-Benz A-Class teased ahead of Geneva debut

The German based automaker Mercedes-Benz has recently released an new video where the 2012 A-Class model is being teased ahead of its Geneva Motor Show debut.

Mercedes-Benz says that the prototype, wrapped in QR code camouflage, will be running around Germany, along with several models, as part of a contest which will award one contestant with a trip to the model’s unveiling in Switzerland, and in order to enter the contest, people have to download the “A-Class QR-Trophy” application from Android Market or Apple App Store. Once this has been installed, badges can be collected which will assure your entry to the contest.

Even if the 2012 Mercedes-Benz A-Class is very close to be officially launched, we still don’t have any official details on the model. But even so, rumors say that the 2012 A-Class will ride on the new MFA platform, which is shared by the B-Class. The platform won’t be the only thing shared by the two models and engine options are also expected to be carried over from the larger brother, along with some unique units. Sadly this is all we’ve got for now on the new Mercedes-Benz A-Class, but more detail will be announced once the model will make its debut at the 2012 Geneva Motor Show in March.
