Mercedes CLA-Class Sedan Launched in India; Prices Start at Rs 31.50 Lakh
Highlights
Mercedes-Benz India launched the CLA 45 AMG in July, 2014, and today, it rolled out the regular version of the car - CLA-Class - in India at a starting price of Rs 31.50 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi). Mercedes' first entry-level sedan for the country, the CLA-Class, will gun right up against the Audi A3, which is already a huge hit in the Indian market.
While in global markets, the CLA-Class is sold with multiple engine options; the Indian market gets two engines - a 2.0-litre petrol and a 2.2-litre diesel. While the 2.0-litre, 4-cylinder, turbocharged petrol unit churns out a maximum power output of 181bhp and 300Nm of peak torque, the diesel unit - 2.2-litre, 4-cylinder unit is good for 135bhp and 300Nm.

The CLA-Class is based on the same MFA (Mercedes front wheel drive architecture) platform on which the A-Class, B-Class, and GLA-Class are also built. The vehicle seems to have taken its design cues from the A-Class and CLS-Class, though it carries a unique appeal. The cabin too shares its features and design with the A-Class and B-Class, but the CLA offers more space than the other two.
