Mercedes-Benz CLA-Class X118

2019 – 2024

The Mercedes-Benz CLA is a series of luxury subcompact executive cars introduced by Mercedes-Benz in 2013. The first generation, based on the platforms of the W176 A-Class and W246 B-Class compact cars, was marketed as a four-door coupé. It offered customers a luxury option in the subcompact executive car segment. In 2015, Mercedes-Benz expanded the CLA lineup to include a station wagon configuration known as the Shooting Brake. This expansion provided more versatility and options for consumers looking for a luxury vehicle with added practicality. As the V177 A-Class sedan became the brand's more budget-conscious sedan offering, the second generation of the CLA was designed to be longer and wider than the W205 C-Class, appealing to drivers seeking a sleek and stylish design combined with luxury features. One of the notable aspects of the CLA is that it is Mercedes-Benz's first front-wheel drive vehicle available in the American market. This choice may have been made to cater to consumers looking for a more accessible luxury option with the brand's renowned quality and performance. Key points: 1.
