The Mercedes-Benz CLA is seen by many as a party-sized CLS, with its sloping roof design obviously inspired by its big brother.
While most of its customers in the United States will probably choose buying the CLA for this exact reason, there are others who may be drawn to it thanks to its quite appealing starting price, which makes it the cheapest Mercedes-Benz model in America.
Whatever the reason, it's obvious that the Mercedes-Benz CLA will be one of the if not the best sold three-pointed star models in the following years on the North American continent.
For now, the car is only available as the CLA 250 in the US, with the hardcore 45 AMG version to be launched in a few weeks time and a 4Matic variant of the CLA 250 to be released in March 2014.
From most of the reviews of the model so far, it seems that the CLA's biggest drawback is the lack of head space for rear passengers, but we're guessing that was expected from a car that is named a “four-door coupe”.
