STEP AHEAD
Ask the CLA 250 to perform, and
you’ll get something more than
an enthusiastic response. You’ll
feel as if it’s already anticipated
your next move — because in many
situations, it has. Its turbo spins
up instantly, putting the full force
of the engine’s torque on tap in
almost any situation. Squeeze the
shift paddles, and its dual‑ clutch
transmission has the next gear
poised for action before the last
one passes the baton. Power out
of a corner and a precisely tuned
suspension teams up with equal‑
length driveshafts, for an athletic
mix of agility and determination.
The available 4matic
®
all‑wheel
drive
2
— developed exclusively for
the CLA — varies the torque sent
to each wheel progressively. It
responds not just to the grip of
each tire but your driving style —
including your use of the Sport
and Manual transmission modes.
And when you wind it all down
at a red light, the engine takes a
rest, too — saving fuel by not using
any. When the light turns green,
the turbo‑ 4 is fired up and ready
by the time you step on the gas —
as if the CLA knows exactly what
you have in mind. And can’t wait
to turn anticipation into action.
Intercooled high-pressure turbocharging generates immediate response.
The 208-hp 2.0-liter 4-cylinder in the CLA 250 unleashes 258 lb-ft of torque
starting at just 1,250 rpm. Direct Injection and rapid-multispark ignition can
fine-tune their performance in milliseconds, turning less gas into more go.
ECO Start/Stop can help save fuel and lower emissions by shutting off the
engine when you’d otherwise be idling — from traffic lights to traffic jams.
The instant you lift off the brake pedal, the engine restarts automatically.
Optional 4
matic all-wheel drive can vary the torque sent to the front and
rear wheels based on grip and the driver’s choice of transmission modes.
It’s among the lightest — and the most efficient — AWD systems in its class.
Fully independent suspension with front struts and a multilink rear design
teams with STEER CONTROL, an innovation of the electromechanical power
steering. In corners and other maneuvers, subtle impulses of the steering
wheel offer intuitive prompts, to help the driver achieve optimum handling.
The CLA 250 Sport Package includes an even sharper sport suspension.
