The Mercedes-AMG CLA Coupé.

The exterior offers additional and distinguishing Mercedes-AMG CLA 35 4MATIC features:

- AMG-specific radiator grille and AMG lettering.
- Front apron with special flics as air deflectors on the outer air intakes.
- Front splitter and trim elements on the slats in the outer air intakes in black.

AMG rear apron with specific diffuser look with four vertical fins and two round black tailpipe trim elements with a diameter of 90 millimetres.

The AMG high-performance brake system provides for firm deceleration and short stopping distances. 4-piston fixed callipers and 350 mm brake disks are deployed at the front axle, while the rear axle is fitted with 1-piston floating brake callipers and 330 mm brake disks.

The new Mercedes-AMG CLA 45 S 4MATIC+ Coupé unmistakably cite the looks of the Mercedes-AMG GT 63 4MATIC+ 4-Door Coupé. The distinctive front apron with the AMG-specific radiator trim sports a design that clearly distinguishes it from the Mercedes-AMG CLA 35 4MATIC.

Equally very striking: the AMG rear apron with specific diffuser look and the AMG spoiler lip in the body colour on the boot lid. The two round twin tailpipes, each measuring 90 mm in diameter, literally round off the rear of the Mercedes-AMG CLA 45 S 4MATIC+ Coupé.

Design is everything: various packages are available for the Mercedes-AMG CLA 45 S 4MATIC+. The AMG Night package, for example, features many items on the vehicle in high-gloss black

A real eye-catcher: the wide track with broadly flared wings and "TURBO 4MATIC+" lettering. Optional 48.3 cm (19-inch) cross-spoke forged wheels and red-painted brake callipers make the exterior of the Mercedes-AMG CLA 45 S 4MATIC+ an even more impressive sight.

The strikingly designed AMG instrument cluster supplies vital information for high-performance driving. The AMG menu provides additional sporty information, such as:
- Gear indicator (including yellow "M" symbol in manual mode).
- Warm-up menu (including engine and transmission oil temperature).
- Set-up menu (including AMG DYNAMIC SELECT settings).
- G-meter.
- Race Timer.
- Engine data.

The exclusive AMG centre console in high-gloss black with buttons for the dynamic functions already hints at the vehicles high-end technical resources while still stationary. It incorporates switches for operating manual transmission mode, 3-stage ESP® and the AMG RIDE CONTROL suspension.

Enjoy the beauty and intelligence of a digitised multimedia system. You decide which information it displays. Control input is just as flexible, e.g. using the touch-sensitive media display.

Create an emotional bond – a vehicle becomes your vehicle. Because the extended MBUX functions can be fully attuned to you. Say "Hey Mercedes", and your MBUX system awaits your wishes. Personal profiles, predictive functions and a WiFi hotspot completely redefine the term digital networking.

The interior of the new Mercedes-AMG CLA 45 S 4MATIC+ matches the outside for sporty appeal. The AMG instrument cluster is tuned for high-end performance with its three different display designs including Supersport mode, a centrally positioned round rev counter and additional information presented in bar graph form.

Those who favour a sporty and agile driving style need to keep a firm grip on their vehicle at all times. This is ensured by the AMG Performance steering wheel with 12-o'clock marking and "AMG" lettering, which comes in three variants.

The centre console, featuring a sporty upward sweep at the front, incorporates a clearly laid-out array of switches to operate manual transmission mode, the 3-stage ESP® system and the AMG RIDE CONTROL suspension.

AMG 2.0-litre 4-cylinder engine with turbocharging, generating 225 kW (306 hp), 400 Nm, based on the M260 for standard model variants and differentiated by twin scroll technology, a water charge-air cooler and independent air intake (clean air line).

Even faster-responding electromechanical multiple-disc clutch for fully variable power distribution and excellent traction when accelerating out of bends.
The characteristics of the all-wheel-drive control system vary according to the selected ESP® mode: comfort-oriented with ESP® on, sporty and dynamic with ESP® Sport and ESP® off.
The all-wheel-drive system is controlled on the basis of the following parameters: steering angle, accelerator pedal position, wheel speeds, longitudinal and lateral acceleration, gear and road speed.

The AMG SPEEDSHIFT DCT 7G transmission is your ideal partner for a sporty driving style. If required the dual clutch transmission can inspire with extremely fast gear changes, but also boasts comfort-oriented, barely imperceptible shifting. As such you can enjoy the best of both worlds – racing or comfort on long journeys, you decide!

The AMG RIDE CONTROL sports suspension is your key to superior performance in everyday driving and on the race track. The adaptive damping provides a broad range between a comfortable and very sporty setup. You select between Comfort, Sport or Sport+ with only one operating procedure and the suspension characteristics change immediately.

The 4-cylinder high-tech engine provides the Mercedes-AMG CLA 45 S 4MATIC+ with an output of 310 kW (421 hp) and peak torque of 500 Nm, enabling the vehicle to accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in 4.0 seconds.

The new AMG Performance 4MATIC+ with AMG TORQUE CONTROL enables racing-standard performance. Two separately acting clutches at the rear axle provide for fully variable and individual power distribution to the rear wheels as required. This power is particularly tangible in the Mercedes-AMG CLA 45 S 4MATIC+ in Drift mode, which features as standard.

The RACE START function offers optimum acceleration from a standing start. Partial ignition cut-off during upshifts and the automatic double-declutching function during downshifts provide for an emotional sound into the bargain.
