New A180/A200/A250 no longer on 7G-DCT (edit : Mistake on MB website)

[clariwee]

Just realised from MB Singapore website's configurator page that new A180/A200/A250 no longer using 7G-DCT but 7G-TRONIC PLUS. Only A45 still on 7G-DCT. Wonder what's the reason for the switch from 7G-DCT.......

On the other hand, the "Technical Data" page still states 7G-DCT.....One of the pages is wrong......

Yeah. Realised that. The first post was infomation from configurator page.

I don't think that the MFA drivetrain is due for replacement.. there may be a new platform, hopefully with better ride quality, but the engine / GB - no news of a replacement. It will be nice if they give a 7G steptronic
