It is designed to compete against the 2020 BMW M230i Gran Coupé and the Audi S3 Saloon. Mercedes-AMG CEO ,Tobias Moers, said :

“The CLA 35 4Matic is an attractive offer for a young, active lifestyle target group”

Inside the four-door coupe features the Mercedes’ new voice-control system or Mercedes-Benz User Experience (MBUX) digital assistant and a dual 10.25-inch screens for instruments and infotainment.

Power comes from a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine making 302 horsepower and 295 lb-ft (400 Nm) of torque. It is connected to a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission which sends power to all four wheels via an AMG Performance 4MATIC all-wheel drive system.

Mercedes claims that the CLA 35 will move from zero to 60 mph in 4.6 seconds, which is 0.1 second faster than the A 35. It has an electronically limited top speed of 250km/h.

Mercedes-Benz will make the public unveiling of the CLA 35 at the New York motor show. It will most likely arrive late this year or early 2020, priced about $90,000.
