Eye-Catching Design with Everyday Sophistication
The 2026 CLA makes an immediate impression with its flowing coupe silhouette and athletic proportions. Measuring 4,688 mm in length with a 2,729 mm wheelbase, it offers a sleek profile while providing generous interior space for up to five passengers.
A wide selection of exterior finishes, including Polar White, Night Black, Mountain Grey Metallic, Hyper Blue Metallic, and MANUFAKTUR Patagonia Red Metallic, allows drivers to personalize their CLA to suit their style.
The standard Panorama Roof creates a brighter cabin, while 18-inch multispoke wheels give the vehicle a confident stance. Drivers looking for an even sportier appearance can choose the available AMG Line with Night Package, which adds AMG body styling, Gloss Black exterior accents, a Chrome Star-pattern grille, AMG floor mats, and 18-inch AMG five-twin-spoke aero wheels.
Turbo Hybrid Performance That Feels Effortless
Power comes from a 2.0-litre inline four-cylinder turbocharged engine with mild hybrid drive, producing 221 horsepower and 258 lb-ft of torque. The integrated Hybrid Starter-Generator supports smoother acceleration while improving efficiency during everyday driving.
Power is delivered through the responsive 8G-DCT eight-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission, while standard 4MATIC all-wheel drive provides enhanced traction and confidence throughout the year.
The CLA accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in just 6.4 seconds, offering an engaging drive without sacrificing refinement. Fuel economy is equally impressive at 9.3 L/100 km in the city and 6.9 L/100 km on the highway, making it well suited for both daily commuting and longer road trips.
Comfortable Cabin with Smart Practicality
Inside, the CLA combines premium materials with thoughtful functionality. The cabin comfortably seats five occupants, while the 440-litre cargo compartment offers plenty of room for luggage, shopping, or weekend travel.
Front passengers enjoy generous 1,062 mm of legroom and 1,023 mm of headroom, creating a spacious environment that enhances comfort on longer journeys. The intelligent digital cockpit keeps important information easily accessible, helping drivers stay connected while maintaining focus on the road.
Precision Engineering for Every Journey
The CLA's refined handling begins with a 4-wheel independent suspension, featuring MacPherson strut and wishbone front suspension paired with a sophisticated multilink rear suspension. Combined with rack-and-pinion electromechanical power steering, the result is responsive steering and excellent ride quality.
The available Sport Brake System and Lowered Comfort Suspension, included with the AMG Line package, further sharpen the vehicle's driving dynamics for those seeking a more engaging experience.
