The Mercedes CLA facelift gets some lively changes over its predecessor

Verdict – The Mercedes CLA gets you a ticket to the high flyers club and it is targeted towards the younger generation, aka the millionaires. The car doesn’t have any major flaws. The looks are unbeatable and it is offered with some attractive colours too, thus guaranteeing you a lot of attention wherever you go, with the tri-star logo giving a good sense of self-pride. The changes aren’t major but they make sure that the Mercedes CLA continues to appeal and doesn’t feel outdated at all.

The red shade looks cool, though grey is my personal favourite

What’s Cool

* Looks very beautiful, can stare at it for hours
* Cabin feels special, good equipment list
* The petrol engine has punchy performance
* Feels very dynamic to drive and is a fun sedan

What’s Not So Cool

* Misses out on features like touch0screen
* Space at the rear is limited

Alternatives: Audi A3
