2020 CLA 35! Why it's the BEST entry level AMG!!

[@MAli-nw4jq]

0 to 60 is 3.5? Maybe a mistake?

[@xdxangeloxbx]

it is a mistake

[@ahemgee9542]

Add 1 and a bit seconds

[@santana9537]

3.4 for gt63s

[@russodean2]

I noticed that aswell. 4.5 seconds probably with hot tires and perfect conditions. 3.5 is super car territory

[@RemoveBeforeRace]

Was a mistake 😅

[@In2oil2]

Incredible production quality.. this channel is so underrated. Love it

Picked up my fully loaded CLA 35 3 days ago in matte grey. Loving this car.

[@maxmorris4562]

Is it smooth to drive?

[@AMG-BENZ-1]

Best AMG reviewer, period! As I was contemplating the CLA 35 versus the 45, you convinced me with this video that the 35 was the right version for me in the CLA family. Properly balanced for a daily driver. Thanks!

[@StevenMillward]

thanks for this. best review of the CLA35 i've seen. the other reviews waste a bunch of time whinging about it not having a handmade engine, and don't really say much that's informative.

[@SupercarsinGreece]

Every Mercedes is on another level!

[@enricosace]

This is my favorite review of the CLA35 so far! Your car switching photos are magical! I don’t know you do it. I’ve only had my silver CLA35 for a week now but I am loving it so far! It may be the best car I’ve ever owned.

[@TobiasHenreich]

I love the CLA 35! Would be perfect with the AMG specific grille!

[@aadil8895]

[@tywinlannister6768]

@Auto blipper BMW looks worse now than it ever has. The new 1 series looks like a woman's car.

[@RatimirRS]

@Auto blipper The only better looking model BMW has is the X5. All other models Mercedes designs better, way better!

[@DaygoG]

Mercedes interiors are too good to pass up. Yes BMWs drive better but only for the 1st 3 years. After that the plastic parts begin to fall apart. Although I will admit after about 5 years those Benz interiors also look pretty bad. Buy what you want.

[@fayahmad9063]

It’s not an amg so shouldn’t be allowed one

[@clintoncollier]

I've had my 2021 CLA35 a few weeks and love it! All the bells and whistles, great handling, quick but not stinking quick enough to wrap myself around a tree. Great at the gas pump too. I heard the suspension was much softer than the 45, which matters since I'm driving 800km a week. I'm truly chuffied...love this car!!

Keep up the fantastic work! Love your content! I thing however, i’ve noticed your last few videos sound a bit quiet even in full volume, would be great if they were louder

[@ZDY66666]

I love your channel but hate your viewers. Half of the comments in your videos are filled with pure illogical fan boys. Liking the product is one thing but blindly following any product is another. (Not referring to this particular car, great video). Being a fan of a brand because they happen to make things that follow philosophy your enjoy is one thing, but blindly following a brand for the sake of following a brand is just dumb. No brand should be blindly followed. And brands hi originally fell in love with SHOULD BE CRITIQUED if they have changed in values or progress in ways that are against their original values (ex Porsche)

[@HaultRxst]

Please do a video on the difference between a45 and a45s

Why do you need a CLA if you have instant transmission?

@@ShouldertoCrayon amplified not simplified :D

[@DanielSadjadian]

It’s a nice base model AMG, not a huge fan of the design though, compared to the 45 version, a bit too soft.

[@fayahmad9063]

[@DanielSadjadian]

Fay Ahmad it also doesn’t have the Panamericana grille and the massive air intakes.

[@MartinAston00]

[@SevCars]

I'm really on the fence whether I should go CLA45s or CLA35 for every day and a few Touristenfahrt runs on the Nürburgring, once our borders open up again.. I've driven the A35, A45s and CLA45s, but never the CLA35. I'm a big fan of mega speccing it and having some extra bank for the boring stuff life throws at you from time to time.

[@jonathangibson871]

wow! awesome work!

[@Pottsayy]

Audi set the bar with their A-S-RS lineup. Can see why Merc wanted a mid-tier S line, but shouldnt have used the AMG badge. Totally watering it down. Should have these new sportier models sit on their own GT line or similar. branched lineup into Luxury (Designo -> Maybach) and Sport (Mercedes-Benz -> AMG) lines. The Benz line would be these 35/45 models with styling and AMG logos on inspired wheels etc like in past, but wouldnt wear the name or feature panamericana reserved for the big boys. Would elevate the Designo line and could feature some trickle down options from the Maybach in the same way. Would eliminate "fake AMG" accusations. Pricing would go M-B -> Designo -> AMG -> Maybach.

[@alexthomas2182]

Interior bonuses only available in Germany tho ... UK spec (like you said) is a lot more basic imo

[@AdamAus85]

Imo, the current Mercedes interior design language is a downer. That bulbous trim across the middle of it (really prominent on passenger side), the goofy screens, nasty plastics, etc.

[@psyweedelix]

between the cla35 and the a35, i bought the a35, personal opinion it just looks better🥳 both great cars tho

[@danI43541]

So a CLA35 with a (Brabus) tune is the perfect four cylinder AMG?

[@filthyeffinrich6089]

the gloss black center console annoys me so much =(

[@onpole01]

How come in your hatchback review of the a35 you were no where near as positive? You seem to love the sedan version of the a35 even suggesting not many won't use all of the power in the a45s...yet you say the hatch a35 is "down on power"...so which is it?

[@donguerrazzi6009]

The performance numbers are way off. Where are you getting your info?

[@alirizaturker1284]

Good video, but you made a mistake regarding the width of the car. In the CLA 45 the track is also wider than CLA 35 just like in the a-class. The difference is just much less since the base CLA had already a wider track to begin with. Just compare the tech sheets.

[@RemoveBeforeRace]

Aliriza Türker I’m relaying what AMG told me about the body width! That’s something different to the “track” of the car. I’m referring to the design and arches.

[@alirizaturker1284]

@@RemoveBeforeRace I don't know what the AMG guy told you but the front fenders are definitely wider in the CLA 45. Maybe there was a misunderstanding. I wasn't trying to troll you, just tried to share the information. :)

picking mine up on march 1st, whoop!

[@hazerblazer1]

BTW - something weird going on with this video - The wheels are for Premium only (in the UK at least), the black version of those wheels are standard on a CLA 45 but not silver. Also, Mercedes have now removed the heads-up display for all models. Not even an option now.

When does the AMG CLA 45 becomes available for purchase in the U.S.A?

[@archangelz558]

I love the car, i want to get it, but i think its a bit too expensive, specially for an entry level car (CLA), which is basically an A class, and the 35 is not an actual AMG, rather tuned. It should be cheaper to allow people access
