About the Mercedes Benz CLA

The Mercedes-Benz CLA brings a sleek four-door coupe body to the A-Class platform — adding a more distinctive, sporting silhouette to the entry-level Mercedes lineup while keeping the MBUX technology and premium cabin quality that make the brand so appealing to South African buyers. It is one of the most stylish cars available at its price point. For buyers who want Mercedes quality and technology in a body style that stands out from conventional compact sedans, the CLA is the answer.

Who is the CLA best for?

  • Style-conscious buyers who want a sporty coupe silhouette with genuine Mercedes credentials
  • Those who find the A-Class sedan too conventional and want a more distinctive body style
  • Young professionals who want a head-turning premium car that is also practical enough for daily use
  • Buyers cross-shopping the Audi A3 sedan and BMW 2 Series who want the most stylish option
