Mercedes CLA Specs, Engines & Dimensions (2013–2016) — First Generation

The first-generation Mercedes CLA combines a sweeping roofline with a choice of Sedan and five-door Estate bodies. If you regularly carry bulky luggage, the Estate’s larger rear opening may matter more to you than its styling.

Mercedes CLA Engines and Transmissions

Your Mercedes CLA engine choice should reflect your usual journeys. Selected Estate examples include the gasoline CLA200 1.6 DCT and manual diesel CLA180CDI 1.5 MT, both with front-wheel drive. The diesel CLA180CDI 2.1 DCT combines a dual-clutch transmission with all-wheel drive. DCT versions handle gear changes for you, while the manual gives you direct control over gear selection.

Mercedes CLA Trims and Equipment

Mercedes CLA trim levels describe equipment choices alongside the powertrain specification. The gasoline, front-wheel-drive CLA180 1.6 DCT Sedan has configurations named SE and Urban. When choosing between them, check the individual car’s seats, infotainment and parking aids: the engine and transmission designation alone does not tell you which conveniences are fitted.
