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

With a profile that renders the larger CLS-Class in miniature, the Mercedes-Benz CLA gets a more curvaceous look come fall when it goes on sale. Looking much like the 2023 Concept CLA-class, the entry-level 2026 Mercedes-Benz CLA-Class is still as sexy as ever.

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.

The electric CLA is the first Benz to put cargo in front of the driver in nearly 100 years. The last time was the W23 Mercedes-Benz 130, a small car with a rear-mounted engine and a luggage space in the front that Mercedes built during the early 1930s.

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

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

German carmaker Mercedes-Benz launched the third generation CLA as two electric models, a 48-volt hybrid coming later in 2025.

Mercedes Benz showcased the CLA Concept at the Bharat Mobility Global Expo 2025, in India. Now the brand has revealed a few details about it, which you must check out.

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
