Mercedes CLA Receives KW Coilover Suspension

The CLA is without a doubt the darling of the compact car range for Mercedes. It's got frameless doors, star-studded looks and a commercial featuring the Devil and Kate Upton. What more could you ask for?

For starters, you could ask for a more rewarding driving experience. Suspension specialists KW answered the call and have launched their very own coil over kit for the CLA. The stainless steel coilovers from KW allow a continuous lowering of up to 60 mm within the TÜV-tested adjustment range. The front is adjusters via the dirt-resistant KW trapezoid thread fitted to the stainless steel struts, while at the back, lowering is set by the rear axle height adjustment.

"So it is easy to directly affect the steering response, handling characteristics and much more for a safe controllability at the limit," explains KW Product Manager Johannes Wacker. "With no other coilover kit for pure road use, such a great margin in damper setup is possible."
