The premiere of the new model is accompanied by the publication of the first teaser image. According to brand representatives, the updated CLA will be called the "most expressive car in its segment."

The new generation CLA will be built on the MFA architecture, developed for compact cars. Thanks to the introduction of this platform, the sedan will increase in size, and the interior space will become more spacious. In addition, it is expected that after the model update, the Shooting Brake body variant will remain in the lineup.

The powertrains will be borrowed from the new A-Class. The power of gasoline and diesel units will range from 120 to 230 horsepower.
