Mercedes CLS Trims and Equipment

Mercedes CLS trim levels describe equipment attached to a named technical version. The CLS350 3.5 AT Fastback is a petrol automatic with rear-wheel drive, and its listed equipment configurations are both called 350. That 350 name groups cabin and convenience choices; it does not mark a different engine or gearbox.
