Fashion leans further forward. And sends every other car back.

Lean muscle leads the way forward from the clutter of other cars. Sleek LED headlamps and a twin-power-dome hood sweep back from the sharknose grille, clearing the way for a profile that slices the wind and a Panorama roof that embraces the sky.

European model shown.

Catches the eye. Clings to the road.

Standard 18-inch wheels hug the curves in the road and in the CLA body. AMG Line and Night Package options sharpen its style with aero-aggressive lower bodywork, and AMG^® wheels up to 19 inches.

All-digital cockpit. That responds to your digits.

Freestanding digital instrumentation anchors a wraparound cockpit with a central touchscreen, 64-color LED ambient lighting, and available reconfigurable gauges. Enticing options include heated and ventilated front seats.

Seven speeds, dual clutches, no clutch pedal.

The dual-clutch 7-speed keeps the turbo engine's torque on tap. Automatic shifts are smooth yet quick. Standard shift paddles put manual control at your fingertips anytime the mood strikes.

Three modes, for your driving moods.

DYNAMIC SELECT lets you fine-tune your CLA with the tap of a console paddle. Four modes vary shift points, throttle response, steering feel and more: easygoing ECO, cool-headed Comfort, sharpened Sport, and make-your-own Individual.

All wheels in, for all-season control.

Variable-torque 4MATIC^® all-wheel drive can send power from the front to the rear wheels of the CLA 250 4MATIC in response to available traction. More than a winter wonder, its lightweight, agile design enhances cornering even on a dry summer day.

Say what you want: Your CLA listens, and responds.

MBUX is easy to learn because it can learn you. Just say "Hey, Mercedes, it's cold in here" or "I need a coffee," and it can control many cabin features, from cabin lighting to the available MB Navigation.

Stay in touch: A smartphone app and WiFi keep you connected.

Mercedes me connect makes ownership easy. Access Remote Start or Lock/Unlock, see your vehicle status, or schedule service, all from your phone. And in-car WiFi for up to eight devices is available for a low monthly rate.

Stay in charge: Everyone gets a port.

In addition to standard Apple CarPlay^® and Android Auto, four USB-C ports mean there's a plug within reach of everyone. Available wireless charging lets you refuel your compatible phone's battery as you drive.

Stay the course: Advanced driver assists smooth any journey.

Along with standard Blind Spot Assist, advanced options can help de-stress driving: Change lanes with a tap of a turn signal. Adaptive cruise can help steer, stop-and-go in traffic, even slow for an offramp.
