Bmw on the other hand fakes sound through speakers. And they are functional. On the track they will make significant difference. And their main function is for styling to make it look more sporty "Aren't functional, only aesthetics" Way to contradict yourself! Aesthetics IS the function! And you can send most of the power to the rear wheels so that it behaves like a rwd car. That doesn't make it fake. That makes ti variable not fake. And so what if it weighs a lot.

This second generation AMG CLA looks like it has gotten feedback from the first gen customers and made this car really fun.

The engine loves to rev, that's a welcoming feature especially in the turbo era. The interior quality is vastly improved.

Might not need the extra cylinders but I sure as hell want it for the sound! Don’t jump on that train Mat.. The C63 needs a V8

[@cCcMamaw]

TheM275 absolutely, theses 4 cylinders turbo engines sounds sad to be honest. Performance is amazing but where is the emotion??

[@kdkd693]

cCcMamaw get the old a45 then if sound is your thing. More fun than a C63S on track

[@kdkd693]

@@aao7785 sadly you are right. They are missing out then. A lot of fun, no matter what car it is. Even a slow momentum car can be fun. And a lot of good learnings made on the track that can be helpful even in normal driving for the average driver. In my case as an average driver, my wife gave me a first track experience for a 40th birthday present. Opened up a can of whoop ass. Good safe adrenaline on a modest budget.

A stunning car! AMG never disappoints!!

I don't actually come here for the cars. I just like to watch Mat review them.

[@Dylan-ti6do]

10:55 There's actually also an aero pack with a big fixed spoiler

[@drealistmind]

It's not available in the UK. Nor is the heads up display. I hate MB for that

[@rayeedh]

I'll be seeing these soon in Bradford...

You’re right about that. It will smoke the rs3 though

Damm this car has got the best look in all the Mercedes

[@dertobi257]

You can actually have an improved aerodynamics pack with a wing similar to the a45s wing. Or at least in germany

[@xIcarus227]

@John Gilroy no i dont think they give u ducks

[@dertobi257]

@@xIcarus227 i dont know if i love or hate you

[@dertobi257]

@John Gilroy so the first aerodynamics pack has canards and a little spoiler in the pictures but the improved aerodynamics pack only has a wing🤷‍♂️. I dont know if they forgot to edit it in or you have to combine them

[@kakadots]

10:00 if you want more space in the back there’s also the cooler CLA45 shooting break estate version

[@snfriedm]

It’s a cool wagon, so here in the US we don’t get it bcuz of our stupid crossover obsession.

I got gla45 hatch not boy racer but for the massive room in the back when I fold my seats down . If your 5.6 you can sleep in back on an angle . Can't do that with 4 door car . Carry longer bigger loads . Great for shopping as well . way more practical for me .

[@morganoxer5560]

Like the sliding feature on the videos to fast forward or rewind with the features being discussed throughout the video. Even though I watch the whole video it’s a nice touch

[@YegaSRT]

Mercedes models really confuse me. I started having a look at their range and there are so many trims and versions I got lost.

[@kentavirus2100]

it's actually more confusing than Porsche which is an achievement

[@godlyweirdo]

Its not confusing at all if you look into. Cars have 5 core models, ABCES. SUVs fall under the G line and all start with GL, after that comes the model line, for example the GLA Class (GL for SUV and the A for its model line). Coupes are CL and roadsters are SL.

[@StrangerHappened]

@@godlyweirdo Still confusing. This CLA from the video comes from A-class but is bigger so it should be B- or C-class.

[@godlyweirdo]

@@StrangerHappened its really not confusing. The CLA is the coupe version of the A Class, idk whats hard about that. The GLA Is the SUV version of the A Class and so on and so forth.

[@uuuu260]

@@godlyweirdo It's confusing because they have their own cars competing in categories, specifically sedans. Like this car competes with AMG C63. Or for example, you have the E class coupe that has a starting price like the CLS coupe. To a normal consumer who wants a Mercedes I think it'd be a little confusing. IMO I think having C, E, S, & maybe CLS for sedans makes sense, they all start farther apart in price and the different upgrades closes the gap

You any closer?

[@andreaskingbo3039]

Looks great. Really surprised the quad-exhausts are actually fake. What the hell AMG?! Anyway I hope they make a A45 saloon - that would be wicked. Oh and personally I am really intrigued by the new Arteon R. Can't wait for Matt to give that a go! Sad to see less people going for the saloon cars these days. They have always been the best looking.
