2014 Mercedes CLA-Class Reviews
Firts made its world debut at the 2013 Detroit Auto Show. While the 2014 Mercedes CLA-Class looks almost identical to the concept, but at the same time offers design elements that transform it into a "modern interpretation" of the CLS. The best feature of the new model is its aerodynamic-drag figure of just 0.23, that sets a new benchmark among not only Mercedes models, but also all series-production vehicles. The model is also equipped with tons of technology that will transform each ride into a secure journey.
For the exterior, the most striking features in 2014 Mercedes CLA-Class are the bonnet with power domes and the diamond-pattern radiator grille, and the new headlamps with LED lights arranged in such a way as to create the characteristic "flare effect." At the rear, the taillights feature a new design and are framed by the muscular lines of the shoulders which extend into the rear end.
The model is highlighted by three prominent lines. One up front flowing towards the rear end in a characteristic dropping line, a second one spanning the shoulder muscle above the rear axle, and a third one extending in a sweeping curve from the front wheel towards the rear. The model has also received a sloping roof line that offers it a coupe-style character.
While the exterior is focused on a sporty appearance, but the interior Mercedes focused on luxury, as the new CLA combines high-quality materials with all the latest technologies. There are five round vents on the instrument panel and the free-standing display screen features a black piano-lacquer-look front panel and a flush-fitting silver frame.
The 2014 Mercedes CLA-Class is offered with integral seats on both front and rear, with the rear ones offered a 2+1 configuration. The seats can be ordered in a wide choice of materials and colors, with colored contrasting stitching available, according to the selected interior appointment options.
Under the hood, 2014 Mercedes CLA-Class powered by a 2.0-liter four-cylinder gasoline engine that delivers a total of 208 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque. It comes with the ECO stop/start function standard for added gas mileage and is mated to the seven-speed Dual Clutch Transmission.
This engine can be combined with a 4MATIC permanent all-wheel-drive system in the CLA250 4MATIC version. This system includes power take-off to the rear axle, which is integrated into the seven-speed Dual Clutch Transmission, and the rear-axle gear set with an integrated electro-hydraulic, multi-disc clutch. This setup enables fully variable distribution of drive between the front and rear axles.
2014 Mercedes CLA-Class Prices: $29,900 plus a $925 delivery fee.
