Initially, Mercedes-Benz will offer the 268-horsepower CLA 250+ with rear-wheel drive and the performance-oriented 349-horsepower CLA 350 4MATIC with all-wheel drive. That’s far more potent than the 221-horsepower four-cylinder mild hybrid driveline offered for 2025.

Mercedes-Benz has revealed the 2025 CLA, marking the first time the model name will be shared across EV and hybrid variants. Both versions feature nearly identical design.

Mercedes-Benz is looking to raise the stakes when it comes to electric vehicles. They have unveiled their new CLA Sedan.

Mercedes-Benz CLA sedan will come as both an EV and a hybrid, and feature over-the-air updates and AI-based infotainment.

Mercedes-Benz has officially introduced the all-new CLA, designed to represent an evolution in technology, luxury and efficiency. As the first vehicle in a new generation of Mercedes-Benz models, the CLA blends artificial intelligence, cutting-edge infotainment and a refined design.

Mercedes is also bucking the traditional method of introducing a new platform as an ICE vehicle and then wedging the design into an EV platform. Instead, the company is going “EV first,” launching the CLA as an EV first and then later as an internal combustion with a mild hybrid in 2026.

Mercedes-Benz CLA250+ with EQ Technology and CLA350 4Matic with EQ Technology are expected to go on sale toward the end of 2025.

Mercedes splits the CLA-Class into EV and hybrid offerings, as it tackles some of the most efficient small cars on the road.

Mercedes-Benz CLA may be an entry-level model, but it's leading the way with new tech and EV hardware improvements.The Latest Tech News, Delivered to Your Inbox
