Love the CLA! Great sound!
I enjoyed the fact that you floored the car way more than you usually do.
the price is really fair considering its a 2014 model
Driven this car. Lots of power in city streets & passing on highway is good. Gearshifts are very quick, if sometimes indecisive. Put it in S mode and the gearbox gets VERY aggressive; fast upshifts and it blips throttle on downshifts when braking.
Couple of thing I hate about this car is:
1. FWD means you cannot mash the throttle & not have the Traction Control screaming at you. Those OEM rock-hard RFTs don't help.
2. Start-stop in this 2.0 turbo is very unrefined vs the V6 units found in bigger Mercedes.
3. This 7spd DCT shifts fine on the go, but it is VERY JERKY in its engagement from a standstill. So much in fact I prefer a regular automatic for stop & go commuting.
just got mine and your points are right on the money. This is my first Benz and coming from a Lexus IS 250 im still not sure which one I like better.

I will say that's an upgrade. No offense but I've test driven the IS250 and it was a complete dog of an engine (I would not settle for anything less than a IS350),
My cousin brought one of these and he told me he did a software update on his personal request. He let me drove it after and while the gearbox still is hesitant off the line it feels much more linear in its 'bite'. Shifts feel more crisp & smoother so I would say it works.
Trades46 Yeah I diffinetly get way more attention in the CLA I think cause its still new and they are 250s everywhere
I test drove a base CLA 250 and while it's not bad it doesn't feel like a full on Benz. It does have MB characteristics like a solid feel and nice styling but something feels like it's missing and it feels like the older C Class coupes which were horrid. I would recommend ponying up the extra dollars and getting a C Class sedan or coupe which has all the characteristics of a good Benz for not a lot more in terms of price. The C Class has an excellent ride/handling combo, good handling, solid feel, quiet cabin and has a great highway feel.
What a beast that red benzo. Small, sporty, everyones favorite.
"It's a really nice Civic".
I really want one, and if I leased it's probably the only Mercedes I could afford lol
It looks really nice from the inside.
Rip your brakes at the beginning :/
It's definitely a Mercedes, just not the Mercedes that Americans are used to. In other places around the world you can hop in a c class taxi and find roll up windows:)
Anyways Mercedes made a good attempt at making a more economical car attractive. Other cars are better bangs for buck but this thing looks good. Seeing as Mercedes has paid the most to date in CAFE regulation fines, I feel they will continue to improve this model. $5.50 per tenth mpg* # of produced vehicles in US market during previous year is ....a very expensive fine :)
Only thing I wish they did was something different with that Nav Screen, It just sit there like some store bought unit on suction cups.....Wish it was inset or something.
Epr7339 i hate the ugly button layout
I would be afraid if you said the cla250 is too much mercedes which is a standard set by old geezers. People that can't afford anything over 30k, "its a really nice civic."
I suppose this is as close as I'll get to driving one of these. The engine sounds fantastic. Was there a lot of torque steer?
Surprisingly none, because of the dumping against its electric steering. Very impressive
I've heard that. How's the interior? Literally every other review I read says something different.
accountnumber90 .i'm sorry but why can't you take a test drive? they're free.
Well, back when this was first released, CLA's were fairly hard to find.
Hi, im going to buy a new car and i wanted to know your opinion. You would prefer an Mercedes Cla 180Cdi with AMG Package and a limited edition ( Ice or Art edition ) and offers the 7 g tronic transmission, an Bmw 118D with M Pack Shadow Line or a A3 Saloon 1.6tdi S-Line package. I think i will take the Cla because they offer the automatic and its an different edition, i'm just afraid that the motor its really slow.
Why do you have snowboard or diving glasses on? 0:06
It's true that they have an AMG version an makin over 400hp an it's allwheel drive ???
There is a CLA45 AMG version out already... but its only 355hp, yes the AMG has 4matic but so does CLA250.
1:09 My mom (same car) when a Toyota turns on a road 😂
how many hp are ther
1:40 I thought you hit a damn pothole and popped a tire. That benz is trash you can hear everything outside.
why didnt you use pedal shift ? does it have them?
in indonesia $60.000 for based and $ 110.000 for 45 Amg
In the third world country luxuries car it cost over 100000 and up for Us dollars........so for a car cost about 20k in the states is considered cheap.......
When's the tesla model s video?
I may be a Prius but damn, She's a beauty.
So like you got dat AWD tho...
I have FWD
Do you have an electric engine
You got dat loud surround sound
Ok I'll stop being weird bye.
Fwd is safer and more efficient
Especially at the winter!
I would buy it just to watch the tachometer needle dance about :)
The cabin is very noisy and looks like the ride quality is crappy
Bonerific0 once again, he probably has it on a sportier setting
Bonerific0 once again, he probably has it on a sportier setting. Also the CLA 250 and the CLA 45 AMG are 2 completely different cars. By default the CLA 45 comes with a stiffer suspension. I'd suggest watching a real review of the CLA 250 and let the reviewers say their opinions. Then test drive it yours4
Bonerific0 the CLA 45 AMG comes with a stiffer suspension by default while the CLA 250 has a much more softer suspension. You shouldn't really compare sportier products to their normal counterparts. Watch a real review of the 250 then test drive it yourself. The 250 and the 45 AMG are to completely different cars
Please review the GL-Class please!
Our roads in America are in such bad shape. Some of the worst I've seen in all my travels. It's not just from winter (although this winter was horrible). Just lousy.
Hey dude you always drive different cars Tell me now whats the best you like as a car you would say I love this and I enjoy driving long way! tell ! :D
I'm really jealous that cars are so cheap in the US. Here in Holland you pay at least $57,450 for this car. And then you dont even have metallic paint or satnav. Packed with extras you could pay up to $70,000
In Malaysia, you have to pay 150,000 - 200,000 to get one
+Damien Sykes in Brazil +- R$250000
and minimum wage R$900 per month xD
Дороги как в России!!!!)))))))))))))))))))))))))
nice car, but that info screen with those broad borders looks like a cheap chinese tablet from 5 years ago.
they need to add around 50 more horsepower
R u kidding me, my dad's Lexus was 46,000
Heir in league with BMW and Audi and Lexus, this car is underpriced
chump squad why are you replying to me? i was talking about horsepower not the price. idiot.
Of you Want to buy the cla250... buy it with 4matic... its not So stable in curves...
Wish had one
$36k for this thing? A tad overpriced...
29k I believe stock. if you will.
Lorenzo Jurado
That's the base price with no options. The car in this video is $36k.
That's so cheap, €30.000 for a mercedes cla, here in europa we pay €40.000-50.000. Pfff why is everything in america so cheap...
iamnotfalling
But why not buy used?
In Australia the cla250 starts around 60 k so it's like 50k US...
A few basic options its close to 70k usd
Shouldnt be RWD?
it should. But it isn't...
Basically it's quite a pointless car I think.
AlexMinecraft1000
FWD is rubbish, belive me.
***** I'd just buy it with the AWD option.
That what kind of car 10 Grade
I’ve heard also the ride is hard even with awd.
awesome video check out my c250 POV

your monthly income please and how do you get these cars for review ?
There's these things called "media fleets"...basically, carmakers set aside some cars so that anybody from the "media" can come and drive them, make videos, reviews, etc. He doesn't own all of the cars he makes videos of.
Nice layout, but sorry, my BMW 125i with M-Pack and M-Performance Pack is running faster. The Intention of Mercedes was to be better than the BMW. But they did not !
You👍👍👍

Kind of car 10 Grades
It’s a badly put together save Mercedes ECT I really annoying sounding motor. Not enough power bad four-wheel-drive for Canada driving. And the fact that the car is built like a tin can I like your other models but this car sucks. To be honest drive a new Toyota Corolla and you’ll find it is much better on the highway beside not having the acceleration or handling. Three times quieter.That would explain Why they’re selling them so cheap.
Κατω φερραρι πανω μερσεντες
Audi A3 is so much better!!
Worst Mercedes made
Why? It's a good mercedes for 15-22k$ , The design and performance is unique for the price, Mercedes is Mercedes
@@akr7am very bad ride quality and wheels and tie rods will break if it goes through potholes.
@@akr7am the engine will turn to junk after 100k miles.
@@alenkoshy8624 can't talk to you about the engine but the 220 CDI is better than this one in terms of reliability.
@@alenkoshy8624 Regarding potholes, I don't think it happens in all cars, always one with bad luck, this happens due to a series of engineers who have studied it well
Nice. Thanks!
