2016 Mercedes-Benz CLA: Fluid Design, Exhilarating Performance.
April 19 2016,
The 2016 Mercedes-Benz CLA is not only a gorgeous looking luxury coupe; it also offers the best in interior comfort and German-engineered performance. While other vehicles in the segment provide bland and generic performances, the CLA centers around charm and finesse blended with unrivalled power under the hood. This unique coupe is available in three variants, the CLA 250, the CLA 250 4-MATIC and the top of the line CLA 45 4-MATIC.
Mercedes-Benz CLA Class -- A Cut Above the Rest
The outside of the Mercedes-Benz CLA carries several unique traits. Its subtly defined lines and athletic silhouette are complemented by the many premium elements that any luxury coupe should have. Available Bi-Xenon headlamps provide an unparalleled night-driving experience, aided by LED front turn signals and daytime running lamps in the front. Distinctive rear lamps with fast-acting LED brake and turn lamps, outlined by LED fibre-optic tail lamps, are two of the most eye catching elements of the CLA. Engineered alloy wheels combine impeccable handling with undeniable style. Sporty 17" wheels are standard in the CLA 250, with a variety of 18" options, including legendary AMG wheels. On the CLA 45 AMG 4MATIC, buyers can choose standard 18" AMG wheels or one of two 19" wheel options.
At the heart of the CLA 250 lies the precisely engineered, powerful and efficient engine that makes more power with less fuel. This twin-scroll turbocharged four cylinder develops 208 hp of power and 258 lb-ft of torque at 1,200 rpm. Standard ECO Start/Stop comes standard with this engine. Paired with the racing-inspired 7-speed transmission and equipped with steering wheel mounted shift paddles, this engine has both power and spirit. Those looking for raw power should opt for the CLA 45 AMG 4MATIC. The engine under the hood of this racing-inspired variant now produces 375 hp from its compact 2.0 liters thanks to its intercooled twin-scroll turbocharger that produces 26 psi of boost; the variant outputs 350 lb-ft of torque starting at just 2,250 rpm
With Great Power Comes Unparalled Comfort
The interior of the CLA features equipment designed for top of the line comfort and convenience. The Heated power sport front seats feature integrated head restraints and a 3-position memory. The large 7" colour display and intuitive central controller on the console combines with integrated steering-wheel controls to give you access to all the technology available in the infotainment system, including the harman/kardon LOGIC7 surround-sound speaker system with 450 watts of audio output. Finally, many optional packages are available to suit any need. These packages feature elements like the power panoramic sunroof, THERMOTRONIC Automatic Climate Control, rear view camera and many more premium elements.
