    It doesn’t look as aggressive as before in terms of design. The interior, especially the front console where the digital displays are located, is very ugly.

    Not sure about the styling. It looks very blobby.

    Is it just me or are the exterior and interior actually hideous? Flashing a massive badge on a small car, or slapping a giant black slate gives Mercedes a perception that they forgot to do beautiful and desirable design. It’s just bad.

      The front console has a really horrid flat design, the EQS hyperscreen has a better design

    Not sure how I feel about that front end and the screens are overkill imo but still an awesome review nonetheless ๐Ÿ’ฏ

    With all these features and to recuperate the R&D costs, the EQ versions of this CLA will be north of 60K quids. Not a real Model 3 competitor, is it? Wake me up when they can offer all these around 40-45K, similar to a Model 3.

      It looks much nicer and premium than the Model 3…

      @anemeth9281ย  not so sure. The new 3 is quite a nice car.

    Mercedes now has the WORST interior design of the three Germans.

    Please check your facts. Tesla M3LR with 4 wheel drive does 0-60 in 4.2 seconds, so it’s faster than this Merc. The Tesla M3LR rear wheel drive also does 0-60 in 4.9 secs, so same as the Merc. Sloppy journalism or deliberate misinformation.

    Disappointed , it doesnt look different and new enough from the previous model .

    At 4 min 50 sec you claim that the front axles are decoupled from the rear for efficiency. Front axles are always decoupled from the rear on electric cars because they separate motors front and rear. Do you mean that the front motor is deactivated when cruising to just run on the rear motor to save energy.

      What he meant to say was, the electric motor on the front axle can be physically decoupled, hence reducing losses by the front permanent magnet motor (PSM) by 90%. That’s normally a let-down when using two PSM motors in comparison to AWD systems with an ASM in the front.

    @whatcar It won’t charge from 10-80% in 10min. They actually say 22min

    The look of the interior and exterior of this model leaves a lot to be desired

    The exterior is okay, if a little cartoonish. But the interior with that enormous and unsightly screen will be a regrettable feature.
