Video Summary
Here's a summary of the video review:The Mercedes-Benz CLA 250 Coupe, a subcompact luxury sedan, competes with the Acura Integra, Audi A3, and BMW 2 Series. Its starting price is $44,400, making it the most expensive in its segment, though it has impressive standard features, such as a pano sunroof, 64-color ambient lighting, wireless Apple CarPlay, and keyless entry.
The 2025 model is part of the 2020 generation, which received a light refresh in 2024 with modern exterior and interior styling. No changes were made for the 2025 model.
All models come with a 2.0L inline-4 turbo engine, yielding 221 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque, reaching 0-60 in 6.3 seconds. It is paired with an 8-speed automatic transmission and standard FWD (AWD is optional). Fuel economy is 26 city/36 highway/30 combined MPG.
The exterior refresh made it sleek and modern, featuring a chrome bar across the front fascia. Front Parking sensors are included, which is impressive for a non-package vehicle. Rear styling is inspired by the GT.
The coupe styling diminishes headroom in the second row. Trunk space is 11.6 cubic feet. The trunk has a cool opening feature. The car doesn't carry adults well; small families with kids would fit better. There is an abundance of chrome throughout the vehicle.
For the base model interior, there are some unique features such as: 3-way memory for the passenger seat, easy-to-use touch buttons, circular vents, thigh support, power seats, and more USB C ports. On the downside, no heated seats or a heated steering wheel are included. However, the interior has good styling and comfortable seating.
The ride quality is decent but slightly jerky; BMW ZF8's are smoother. Handling is good due to its small size. Overall, the reviewer finds the car is impressive, good, but pricey, especially given all the other options on the market.
