2025 Mercedes-Benz CLA: Price, Specifications and Photos
The 2025 Mercedes-Benz CLA has landed in the US, boasting exciting updates and a starting price exceeding $70,000. Let’s dive into the details!
2025 Mercedes-Benz CLA: What’s New in the Coupe?
Coupe enthusiasts, rejoice! The new 2025 Mercedes-Benz CLA is here with a fresh look and exciting features. This facelift of the latest generation CLA was recently announced as part of Mercedes’s new car lineup.
Design
The 2025 CLA features both visual and mechanical enhancements, including a new, more fuel-efficient hybrid engine.
Up front, the CLA sports a redesigned grille with a striking three-dimensional effect. Sporty versions get the AMG grille with vertical chrome lines.
The iconic three-pointed star remains proudly displayed at the center of the grille. The headlights have also been redesigned, now incorporating sleek integrated LED DRLs.
The front bumpers have been reshaped, and a new diffuser adds a sporty touch to the rear of the coupe.
Interior of the 2025 CLA
The 2025 Mercedes-Benz CLA features seats with updated upholstery, available in gray and black or black and red leather.
The new steering wheel boasts an impeccable leather finish and offers an optional heating feature for added comfort (available at an extra cost).
The dashboard is dominated by two 10.25-inch screens housed within a single glass panel.
The CLA retains the integrated MBUX system, now featuring updated graphics and a revised screen layout. Another noteworthy feature is the parking system, which includes a 360° camera for effortless maneuvering.
Engine and Performance
The 2025 CLA comes in two mild hybrid versions. The first pairs a 48-volt mild hybrid system with a 1.3-liter turbocharged four-cylinder gasoline engine, generating a total output of 163 hp and 203 lb-ft of torque.
The 35 4MATIC configuration utilizes the same electric motor but combines it with a more powerful 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine. This setup delivers a total output of 306 hp and 299 lb-ft of torque.
According to Mercedes, the 35 4MATIC can accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in just 4.9 seconds.
Both versions feature a seven-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission.
The mild hybrid system regenerates energy during braking and acceleration, which is used to power the 12-volt onboard network and recharge the car’s battery.
Fuel Economy of the 2025 Mercedes-Benz CLA
Mercedes claims the CLA can achieve a fuel economy of up to 78 mpg when the battery is fully charged. However, it’s important to note that this figure is likely based on the European WLTP testing cycle, which tends to be more optimistic than the US EPA cycle. Official EPA fuel economy figures will be available closer to the car’s on-sale date.

- Parking package with reversing camera and assistance
- Anti-theft alarm
- Wireless cell phone charger
- Panoramic sunroof
- Auto-dimming rearview mirrors

The CLA also offers advanced safety features like evasive steering assist, active steering assist, active brake assist, lane keeping assist, and blind spot assist.
