Does anyone else remember when the CLA came out the end of 2013 and they made such a big deal about it because it started at $29, 999?? I think that price lasted 2 years. Fast forward to now and the base CLA with a few options costs as much as a decently optioned E-Class did in 2013....lol

[HDmanzano]

$46k for a base CLA is actually comical 😂

[tomcat]

Base is $46K? I'd take an Acura TLX any day over this CLA.

[PresidentJackBauer]

That base price is way too high and it comes with almost nothing

When did Mercedes-Benz start using an 8 speed DCT in the CLA? It used to be a 9 speed automatic transmission. BTW, the CLA competes directly with the 2 series Gran Coupé, not the 3 series.

Ill never understand why manufacturers put sport oriented seats on a basic economy car.

[neofx]

Wait 1-2 years, used should be around 25k

I hope Lyn is right in her thinking that sedans are making a comeback. It's slim pickings for a sedan shopper these days. Loved the review.

[CapELarry]

No Lynn. Glossy black plastic doesn’t look better.

Crazy that Mercedes charges you $2000 for the driving assistance package that is standard on a Corolla XSE and my Impreza RS, also, I get adaptive LED headlights, heated seats and windshield standard - all for about $30k

[swerves]

Recent Merc build quality is NOT an entry level issue.

[SkyyMi]

I still dont understand the shallow cubby where the touch pad use to be. To small for most phones now a days and to shallow to hold anything taller than a few coins.

[CarNut]

I think you mean BMW 2 series and not 3 series in the competitive set. Hopefully you all can fix the edit ♥️

[jerbsherb]

paying almost 50k for a 220hp is pathetic

[telliesmith]

I like how some manufacturers get excuses for build quality and others would have gotten hell for the same issue 🤔 smh

[SSS-mpth]

Genesis over this any day of the week.

What is "car wash mode"? 10:00

[ArtbyAtlas]

Might as well get a base GLA250 with that price, you'll get more carry on and passenger space and better fuel economy

[Livin_is_life]

Started out as an introduction car for saying... Yea I own a Mercedes. Not so much anymore @ that starting price 🤑

[jaybnd]

For $50k I would rather get an TLX ASpec SH-AWD
