Buying Tips for the 2019 Mercedes-Benz CLA (C118)

  • On CLA 250e models, expect a 30-40% drop in electric range during UK winters; this is usually normal rather than a battery fault.
  • Listen for wind noise at motorway speeds, which suggests the frameless window seals need adjustment.
  • Check the interior door cards and dash for creaks when driving over rougher B-roads.
