Mercedes-Benz CLA200 2016: Any known issues?
There’s nothing that you should be concerned about, Mercedes cars generally age gracefully, but like any car they can always break down. Servicing is paramount, so make sure your budget will allow you to keep your car properly maintained.
Front-wheel drive Mercedes-Benz?
It's definitely a real Benz in all the important areas, from design and safety to quality, and front-wheel drive means better packaging with more interior space and the ability to make the car more affordable. Every car maker is moving to front-wheel drive for efficiency, even BMW which won its reputation as a driver's brand with its rear-drive cars.
Engine in CLA powerful enough?
The basic CLA has 115kW and, more importantly, 250Nm. For a non-sporty driver, helped by a seven-speed dual-clutch gearbox, that should be more than enough.
Rough ride in CLA200
It's very, very likely to be the penalty you pay for large-diameter alloy rims with low-profile tyres on a sporty little car.
