Technology and Powertrains
The technology of the Mercedes-Benz CLA 45 AMG has been refined to perfection in Affalterbach, with the goal of offering an exceptionally sharp and immediate driving experience.
The World's Most Powerful Four-Cylinder
At the heart of the model is a 2.0-liter turbocharged engine, producing 387 horsepower in the base version and an impressive 421 horsepower in the more aggressive S-version. The engine delivers up to 500 Nm of torque, enabling acceleration from 0-60 mph in an incredible 4.0-4.1 seconds.
AMG Performance 4MATIC+ and Torque Control
The completely redesigned all-wheel drive system utilizes AMG Torque Control, which distributes power lightning-fast not only between the front and rear axles but also between both rear wheels. This enables not only extreme grip but also a Drift mode designed for more experienced drivers.
Transmission and Chassis
Power delivery is handled by an 8-speed AMG SPEEDSHIFT DCT dual-clutch transmission, which shifts gears either sophisticatedly smooth or brutally immediate depending on the selected driving mode. The firm yet adjustable suspension ensures that the car is an excellent companion for both daily driving and occasional track days.
