Entry Level Luxury?
We surely think so with the added options and redesigned look of the 2020 Mercedes-Benz CLA 250 sedan that is meant to be entry level luxury sedan by Mercedes. It is a car of choice for many that are looking a small compact sedan but still want to enjoy the luxury look, feel and prestige of the Mercedes brand without killing the bank.
This year we believe Mercedes put in some work into this fine beauty that is truly pleasing to the eye for any car enthusiast. There is an updated turbocharged 2.0 liter inline-four engine that now spits out 221 break horse power and 258 pound feet of torque, which is a few horses more than the previous year with 208 break horse power.
Another adjustment made is with the tires which now boasts an extra 2.5 inches wider in the front pair of tires and 2.2 inches wider in the rear pair of tires; these helps to further provide more sporty grip when powering the machine with some strong push on the gas pedal. Tires still comes standard at 18 inches with optional 19 inches upgrade.
