Why the CLA45s is the most powerful 4 cylinder car in the world

The Mercedes AMG M139 Engine is currently the most powerful 4 cylinder production engine in the world and It sits so well in the CLA45 line up. In this video I explain exactly why this engine is so incredible.

This video features the CLA45s AMG which is one of the AMG performance versions of the Mercedes CLA. My car is the 2022 CLA45s AMG Coupe but you can also get the CLA45s AMG Shooting brake or even the A45s Hatch back.
The CLA45s gives you that great AMG sound from the AMG performance and also the luxury of a Mercedes Benz

Viewing this at 1440p makes the experience be just that much breathtaking!!

[@ABAUTOAMG]

Thanks! Nice to hear people are watching this at the higher qualities! I always wonder if I go a bit overkill for KZbin but I love high end footage :)

[@youngsimbah3740]

Incredible video! The performance this car gives is amazing. Thank you for highlighting those features and comparing it to the older model!

[@ABAUTOAMG]

Thank you!

[@AdictiveAutos]

My 2022 AMG 45 was just built and on a ship to the USA. Should have it in about two weeks and I’m really pumped! Thank you for your video’s and information which has helped me through the long ordering time.

[@ABAUTOAMG]

Thanks Ron, that’s really exciting to hear yours has been built! I bet you can’t wait to drive it!

[@AdictiveAutos]

@@ABAUTOAMG Going to be hard to drive it lightly during the break in period.

[@TheRealBobMarley]

No s version in America. Shoulda got a c43

[@AdictiveAutos]

@@TheRealBobMarley What is your point. Buy a larger rear drive car that I have already owned? Would not a PMC upgrade make up the difference of a few HP?

[@unstopp]

@@AdictiveAutos don't mind the idiots... you have 4matic+ in US non-S versions, meaning you can activate Race & Drift mode (4matic+ has the diff, comparing to the normal 4matic). I'm in EU but did a lot of digging haha

[@popcornfps]

I'm happy with my new GLA45 👍. Amazing engine and drivetrain!

[@ABAUTOAMG]

Congrats! Such a great all around car. Enjoy many happy miles!

[@atalayo3o0o]

Yeah, I love my A45S, this car is a total bliss and CLA or A, they both are mean machines. Enjoy yours!

[@astroboy8531]

Amazing video

[@ABAUTOAMG]

Thank you :)

[@Spoofd531]

Great video. Just bought one. It’s not the fastest like you said. But it is the most powerful 💪

[@ABAUTOAMG]

Thanks Ivan, Yep the speed limiter makes it technically slower than some much less powerful cars but it’s so much more powerful and quicker before reaching 155, but I don’t think many will be going faster than that :)

[@jamesthomaspaulJTP]

Have to say, an incredibly well made video.

[@ABAUTOAMG]

Thank you

[@georgelaue5577]

Another great video and thanks so much for posting. I really wanted the 45, but didn't feel strongly enough about it to spend the 110,000 us dollars on it.

[@MJT-DA]

$63,000CAD msrp in canada lol what?

[@DrB187]

Amazing...simply Amazing 👏🏾😍 Makes me wanna get this car even more now!

[@IXIFrostIXI]

Longevity has to be pretty poor at that power/ liter ratio. Can only defy physics so much

Hopefully soon! :)

[@leethornton4180]

Awesome content as always!!!… I get my shooting break Plus+ in a few weeks 🤞🤞. What cleaning regime and products have you been using for the engine bay?

[@ABAUTOAMG]

Thanks Lee! I actually haven’t cleaned the engine bay yet! It’s still looking new after 2k miles. This is a video of how I cleaned my C43 engine bay though! A very simple safe process for engines not too dirty. kzbin.info/www/bejne/l6XLYoiPe5eeg5o

[@AMore429]

Is the engine mostly behind front axel ?

[@Lordschaft1313]

Love this car in all way. But my next Car will be a E220d 4matic T Model and my first Mercedes

[@osojune4542]

This engine is going to be amazing on the new lotus. Definitely the engine to choose over the Toyota v6.

[@Nathan-ng1jt]

Mitsubishi EVO X FQ440?

[@AlerraFollador]

How did you set up your camera inside the cockpit? Looks amazing

[@ABAUTOAMG]

Thanks, I have a few setups with my GoPro that have been working really well. In this video there’s two. One mounted on the sun roof and the second is with a head strap. Quite a few have asked about this so I am going to put together a little video showing my setup and how to do it :)

[@s_rtm1]

How does the car handle humps whilst going over them with a bit of speed?

[@chicagolanddesigns6447]

It’s impossible to buy one rn tho. It’s not even on the Mercedes website anymore.

[@ABAUTOAMG]

Don’t worry it’s coming back, it was on and off a lot on the uk website too when I ordered mine

Extremely nice car! What do you work as?

[@ABAUTOAMG]

Thank you Javid, I have a few things going on but my main job is in the creative field. Lots have asked so I’m working on a full video to show how I got where I am today. I grew up very poor and I really hope my story helps in inspire some people. I still have a long way to go :)

[@icteamc8397]

have you experienced any transmission error/issue?

[@ABAUTOAMG]

I’ve had one random transmission error message pop up while doing a kickdown but it was fine after and has all been ok since.

[@Lordschaft1313]

How much liter need this car when you did your dayli work drive?

[@OfficialEmperor]

planning to buy an older version, saving up. new one too expensive haha

[@ABAUTOAMG]

The older version is still lots of fun!

[@TrendingNews.Network]

Is that a paint job or a wrap? If it’s a paint job can you help me with the color code for it 🙏🏾

[@ABAUTOAMG]

Hey Joseph, It’s the original colour I ordered new from the factory. It’s called Designo Magno mountain grey :)

[@MrSlpierce]

I have heard that the matt grey paint is a nightmare to keep in good condition, is this true?@@ABAUTOAMG

[@javidhosseini8988]

How does the fuel consumption look like per month for the 45s?

[@ABAUTOAMG]

Hey Javid, I’m going to do some proper MPG tests in a video soon and I also may do an experiment to see what happens if I use race mode every day for a week as a fun vlog style video. Overall I’m getting an average Mpg of 23 so far. The problem is the tank itself is quite small so I find myself filling up once a week doing around 40 miles a day.

[@sivanada8865]

Hi just want to find out. The black rear and passenger doors mirrors are installed by manufacture or you request them to tint black?

[@ABAUTOAMG]

Hi Siva, everything on the car here is from factory from the manufacture. The black parts are often part of a ‘night pack’ but come standard on some AMG models. Hope this all helps. Adam

[@sivanada8865]

@@ABAUTOAMG Thanks Adam for explanation, highly appreciated. Is tint or the mirror is black?

[@ABAUTOAMG]

@@sivanada8865 ah you are welcome! The mirror is painted black and the rear windows are tinted.

[@lastpassenger4160]

Once again many thanks indeed 🙏🏻 for your Video which is full of specialized information about Mercedes-Benz products , but TBH What the point even owning the fastest Car in the Uk , just allows to drive 70 mph 😂🤦🏻

[@Happytruth]

Was the most powerful is now the second most powerful, the new Mercedes’ with the M139 engine has an upgraded turbo charger giving it slightly more BHP than the CLA 45s.

[@ABAUTOAMG]

True, and the new C63e hybrid will be even quicker. This engine is also now in an incredibly lighter lotus which will be quicker. If I’m honest the video is all about the M139 engine rather than the CLA45s itself. I just focused on CLA45s to make the video more accessible :)

[@damiennickoles1657]

What type of paint is this?

[@ABAUTOAMG]

Hi Damien, it’s called Designo Magno mountain grey. It’s a matte/satin finish.

[@damiennickoles1657]

@@ABAUTOAMG Thank you!

[@flyingmanforfun]

Man that satin finish is truly made for that car but damn satin finishes are so god damn fragile i wouldnt dare to own one. Holy crap i just noticed you got the satin black rims aswell, what a nightmare😂😩

[@ABAUTOAMG]

Thanks it does look amazing. I have been surprised on how easy it’s been to maintain so far. Here’s my full experience with the paint so far video kzbin.info/www/bejne/qnbWhYmLl5hkl80

[@NM-gj9wr]

Exactly most powerful 4 cylinder engine, but it's FF based, drive shaft and crank shaft are orthogonal.

[@jamsxr]

They’re not bad but I would probably go electric rather than a new 4 cylinder. The manufactured fart noises don’t sound great to my ears, and it’s got worse MPG than the V8!

[@TheRealBobMarley]

I think your c43 videos were more enjoyable.

[@hi-ku2wg]

Next : mercedes c63s is world faster car 4 cylinder

[@murmanzach3643]

👏👏👍

[@Dozithekid]

Until new c63, you should’ve waited for it tbh

[@ABAUTOAMG]

I’m still determined to buy the new C63 when it arrives if I can :)

[@tedkim4020]

Would it be possible to buy this car if I earn 5k pounds a month?

[@ABAUTOAMG]

That’s a really tricky question, this would depend on your living expenses dependencies etc and how much money you have left per month after 5k, for some this won’t be enough and for others it will be more than enough :)

[@tedkim4020]

@@ABAUTOAMG Thanks for your on time response! This stunning car is really my dream car and I really dream of owning it. I think I should consider of ways to earn more to buy this car
