Mercedes-Benz CLA-Class

Automobiles

The Mercedes-Benz CLA is a line of luxury subcompact executive cars that Mercedes-Benz has built since 2013. It began as a four-door fastback sedan sold as a four-door coupe, built on the same compact platform as the A-Class and B-Class, and in 2015 the range added a five-door station wagon body that Mercedes-Benz markets as the Shooting Brake. Production of the first generation began at the Kecskemét plant in Hungary in January 2013, and the car was the first front-wheel-drive Mercedes-Benz ever offered in the United States. Engines are four-cylinder petrol and diesel units, with high-performance AMG versions at the top of the range, and a later generation added battery electric models that share their styling with the combustion-engine cars.
