Added extras of the A-Class

GERMANY: Now that the A-Class has been revealed to the world, Mercedes-Benz is keen to push the ingenious features of the car.

One such device involves the middle-rear headrest, which doubles as a drinks holder.

It is possible to lift out the middle-rear headrest and insert it low down between the rear seats, allowing the hole in the middle of the headrest to accommodate drink bottles.

There is also a cute storage box, in the shape of the A-Class, that fits between the rear seats and a cool box that plugs into the car's electrics to keep your drinks cold.

Buyers can also specify children's play stations that hook around the front headrests so the little ones can be kept occupied on long journeys.
