2017 Mercedes-Benz CLA 250

Powering the energetic CLA 250 FWD is a 2.0L turbo 4-cylinder engine, which houses 208 hp and 258 lb-ft of torque. Connected to the turbo engine is a racing-inspired 7-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission, which offers the superior driver control of a manual, and the seamless feel of an automatic. The standard shift paddles, positioned behind the upper steering-wheel spokes, put the 7-speed’s upshifting and downshifting capabilities in your hands. For an even more personalized feel, the CLA 250 includes DYNAMIC SELECT® with ECO, Comfort, Sport, Sport+, and Individual modes. Offering the perfect balance of sturdiness and fluidity is 4-wheel independent suspension and electromechanical power steering.

Expanding your CLA coupe’s safety arsenal is as easy as tacking on any of the following high-tech systems:

• LED headlamps and taillamps

The diamond-block design of the 2017 Mercedes-Benz CLA coupe’s bold grille makes a confident first impression. Animated and eye-catching, the front fascia blends into an aerodynamically contoured body that includes four individual doors. Alpharetta and Johns Creek drivers are free to incorporate optional Sport or Sport Plus body styling for even more aggressive sculpting, larger mesh air intakes, and a deeper rear valence. The standard 17-inch 5-spoke wheels can also be swapped for 18-inch twin 5-spoke wheels in a variety of designs, including AMG® twin-spoke in Black. No matter the combination of exterior features, the 2017 CLA 250 coupe can’t help but turn heads.

Next to the exterior, the interior of the CLA family is what sets it apart from other coupes in its segment. The CLA upholds the Mercedes-Benz coupe tradition of including four individual seats, while offering room for a third rear-seat passenger. Sporty and driver-centric, the cockpit includes a Sail Pattern trim, aluminum-ringed air vents, a 3-spoke multi-function steering wheel, and a 4.5-inch color instrument cluster display. Sport front seats with adjustable cushion lengths and a 14-way power driver seat with memory add greater performance flair, while dual-zone automatic climate control and ambient interior lighting set a relaxed tone. To the rear, you’ll find a trunk that offers 13.1 cubic feet of cargo room, perfect for luggage, sporting equipment, and more.
