2014 Mercedes-Benz CLA250 Edition 1 Start Up, Exhaust, and In Depth Review

[@kirillkado]

Remember watching this review 10 years ago just before getting myself a new 2014 CLA I still own that car a decade later and love it more that ever with 135k miles on the clock Car has been very reliable apart from minor issue with turbocharger (that still was an easy $100 fix) and some stuff that came and went with regular maintenance I hope I'll spend next 10 years behind the wheel of this glorious machine since it became my friend I made lots of good memories with Thanks for a review, Kyle! Been a pleasure to be your subscriber during all these years - and I'm still here for your future videos, buddy From Russia with love 🇷🇺 Take care!

[@darrylphillips6301]

Just got mine 10years later man on May 1st. Love it so far. Has 105k miles and interior is immaculate and drives very nice even at 105k miles! Continue to enjoy it man! From Chicago 👍

[@-vll-]

@@darrylphillips6301thinking about getting one used around 90k also in Chicago. How has it been holding up for you maintenance wise?

[@darrylphillips6301]

@@-vll- been fine so far can't complain, check the service history and also pop the hood, I had to order a air intake housing that's only like $45 on Amazon and eBay bc they are notorious for cracking from the heat from the turbo. Really easy fix though should be able to urself if u do have to change it. Haven't had a winter in it it yet and don't have the 4matic. It's a dope car though and fun to drive in sport mode on Lakeshore shore, I open it on there every other day. It's a looker for sure though 👍

I'm a proud owner of the 2014 Edition 1 CLA 250, same car as in the video, same color, everything. I absolutely love my car. I just want to say thanks to ***** for this review, as after watching it over a year ago is what decided me to purchase my vehicle! 11,000 miles and counting. Thanks again, Kyle :)

How do you like the car today? Is it holding up? I'm thinking of getting one myself.

[@DankRageRants]

+aladin8150 Love my car. No complaints thus far outside of the transmission. Can be a little jerky at times. The trans was fixed in the '15 models with a software update. The 16 models are supposed to be absolutely amazing. Still loving her :)

[@alpzepta]

Julian's World Hyundai is better but Toyota are going backwards. Toyota have failed to make Avalon to look like a German luxury car. Avalon make Lincoln and Genesis look like a Bentley than a Toyota! Shame toyota!

[@tlf361]

CineRaphael Shame Toyota? Lmao, do you think Toyota cares about looks? Their cars sell like hotcakes despite most models being ugly as sin. The only reason why the Avalon exists is primarily for the Japanese market, as well as a platform for the extremely hot-selling Lexus ES.

[@Happytylermovieproducction]

Timothy L Hyundai are both Reliable and Beautiful at the same times, I owned a 2015 Hyundai Sonata so I can say this. My second car was going to be a German but I might go with Either a Genesis or Kia Stinger. You get a lot for the money.

i was waiting for his review on the CLA250 no one else does review better then he does

[@Kol2388]

Beautiful car and great review as always!

[@MrPrincePinocchio]

This is a very good sub-compact sedan segemnt entry from Mercedes-Benz and a great marketing technique. The 4-cylinder is never going to sound as good as the 6 and 8-cylinders utilized in other models, although in the quest of achieving sustainability and efficiency we are going to have to get use to these exhaust notes. The amplified turbo noise in the A45 is already a step in the right direction of making these smaller engines more attractive.

[@jmpgs200]

Great through review as always Saabkyle04 , Just took the CLA for a test drive earlier today, Love it !! I'm picking up my CLA BLK Sport , AMG wheels in Feduary.

[@kielconstantine]

[@timothymayben5547]

The car does look very nice! I test drove one BUT, I was disappointed in the amount of road noise the car had. That's what drew me away from the car. I found the econ mode (how the engine shuts off while in idle at a stop light) very cool! I just wish they put a little more thought into the road noise aspect.

[@masteratcod]

A lot of negative comments but I’ve had this car for 2 years now put 56,000 miles on I️t and I love I️t, enough performance to be fun, and I️t looks beautiful. While it’s not an amg still a very fun car

[@bradedgerton3]

Haters are gonna hate no matter what anyone says. Yes, it's a beginners MB, whatever. So, I just bought the 2015 sport model with the turbo charged 4 cylinder. It's a beautiful red MB with black rims. The looks alone are great! Drives super smooth, fast, and has most of the whistles and bells. It was the $40k version and the fiancé and I love it. Especially since it's the only one in town for now.

[@sm2by]

Been waiting for this! Thanks Kyle!

[@stephano1990]

I've seriously considered buying a CLA (180 BlueEfficiency), but including the options that I wanted, It costed me two grand less to import a hardly used C-klasse from Germany!

[@Okenpo]

I don't understand why people give this car such a hard time. It's still a mercedes. Wanting a "cheap" mercedes is practically a paradox. Buy a used one and quit complaining.

[@michaelmaiorano1748]

I bought my edition 1 about a month ago. This car is awesome.

[@FerrarifanOls95]

Note: 2.0 litre turbocharged 16v 4 cylinder powerplants always make the most aggressive, deep sounding engine notes on any production car Have to say though those seats are just interior perfection

DAMMMNNN!!! The dealership of Mercedes around my area look as if they were a mall,but where you are, it's an AMAZING resort!!

[@saabkyle04]

It's quite the impressive sight in person!

[@IKhanNot]

Yeah MB dealerships are nice but check out Mercedes Benz of Burlington here in Canada. It's like a posh car museum and dealership altogether. Pretty much all of their cars new and used are indoors. Indoor golf course, spa and restaurant are in there too. Even the washrooms are swanky.

[@rvdgt3]

Pokabyss

[@Tednessful]

This car looks way better in person. Sure, FWD proportions on a 4-door Merc may look awkward at first, especially in the US, but it's way preferable over an Audi A3 Sedan or a Suzuki Kizashi.

[@andreaalanis4888]

Everyone who is critiquing this car is just pissed about the fact that they still can't afford the "lower" end of Mercedes. If it were as shitty as everyone claims it is, why would a reputable brand, such as Mercedes, add it to their line-up? Go back to daydreaming about cars you wish you owned, and back to your Corolla or whatever crap y'all drive.

[@gavcom4060]

Andrea Alanis Bitch we own a Mercedes c400, 68k, and the Baby Benz has some very noticeable price cutting. The panel gaps are so bad you can see the body paint, the whole front panel is plastic, outdated interior. People buy the CLA for the badge and to impress. It's not a real Benz. Also the equivalent A class sells for like 20-30k for a base in Europe.

[@Idtelos]

Waiting on it's older brother, the C400. September can't come soon enough!

[@bitmastermac]

Saab Kyle: Saab guy? I just traded off my 7th Saab, and got this. I got a great deal on a crisp 3 year old. I'd buy another Saab if I could. I considered an A3 but I'd need an S3 and want fwd.

[@SnakeEater1984]

Awesome car! I'm thinking about getting this car pretty soon. Still debating whether I should get the CLA250 or a 2014 Lexus IS. But I'm more leaning towards the Mercedes. I'm very excited, can't wait.

so what did you end up getting?

[@luizdlawton5687]

Great review!! Beautiful car!!

[@sz764]

Thanks for taking the time to make this video. You mentioned that in 2015 they will be releasing a larger "C" class. Longer or wider maybe? Do you have any other info on this?

[@jrin82]

This vehicle competes with the Audi A3 and possibly the BMW 1 Series along with the Acura ILX, Lexus had decided not the enter this segment. Jaguar is making a model that may compete in this category as well. Even Tesla is making more a"affordable" model(maybe ???). I think it is good for the industry, not everyone needs or wants a super car or a larger luxury sedan. Great Video as always.

[@southbeach09]

A bit overpriced, in Canada this car costs close to $45k which is way too much for a CLA imo. The CLA45 is over $50k. It's a nice looking car but it's basically a entry, base model Benz with extra options to give it that "expensive" feel.

[@ThePinoyMamba]

[@eduardoforneck3335]

One of the most beautiful cars in the world, even though design it's just about your own opinion, I really don't know how there are people who think this car is ugly? what are the cars these people drive??

[@10293]

Cars that they think are better looking than this one, some cars are. You think it's beautiful but that doesn't make your opinion more valid than those who don't like how the CLA looks.

[@IKhanNot]

That center console is probably the biggest flaw of the interior design. The problem is the new W205 C Class will also feature this type of screen. The current gen W204 has a much more clean and integrated look and has good old Benz quality. This car will be solid and drive nicely like a Benz should but for the price just pony up the extra dollars and get a properly styled C250/300/350.

[@Darksyne]

Man this kicks the crap out of cars like the Acura ilx and BMW 2 series

[@sasanmottaghipour876]

Mercedes will always be Mercedes

[@MarchettiAutomobili]

I like the car. It's good for what it is. I didn't expect it to have the upper end Mercedes look/feel but I think its a bit of step down from Mercedes. However, I understand there is a market for these cars and they will sell. That's why they made it.

[@tlf361]

Dude calm down, the CLA (especially this generation) is one of the worst models to come out of Stuttgart. Mercedeses are generally awesome, but this is a cheap front wheel drive car intended to lure youngsters with it's Star logo. It IS too expensive for what you're getting (the C-Class is far superior in all aspects and much more refined, and justifies it's price hike. If the CLA didn't have a Mercedes badge on it, it'd be worth far less). It don't know about the ugly part, because I honestly love the look of the CLA... But overpriced and unrefined it is. If you check out most auto reviewers/journalists, you'd see what I mean... It's one of the most poorly rated Mercedeses out there, and for a good reason.
