tbf the current CLA is still a very competitive car, good enough technology, amazing engine and transmission and they are actually fairly reliable, feels quite luxury, nice overall modern mercedes design and ok price, so I'm not feeling in need too much of a rush for this new one to come out
Do you remember the Mercedes Eqs concept? That was one of the most beautiful car out there... And they were like.... " when the car comes out it will be almost the same" And everybody sees what the actual car looks like... I mean my eyes still hurt...

Then Mercedes can maybe stave off the looming death spiral their entering where there’s no longer sack-loads of cash extractable from the Chinese market by merely being a perceived high status brand.
I love how honest and off the cuff Nicola is when she completes a review. Very relatable and yet still covers off all the important aspects of the vehicle. Love her work!
There's no way that interior will make it into production, however even if 50% of the external styling on this thing makes it into production, it's going to be stunning.
My first thought was that it looked like a dentist appointment sitting inside the car :) Outside looks nice, but far away from older classic Mercedes designs inmo. But its a trend among all car brands right now.
All they need is the shape, front swooping light bar and headlights. It will be a hit seller. Interior can mostly match what’s in today’s cars and it would sell!
Concept cars are like brainstorming ideas. What comes out of it are a few things that make sense and a direction for the new design that will go to production, with adjustments to fit safety and regulations.
Yes, it will...the Range is 750km...they already reached a worldrecord with it...3770km in 24h and an average speed of 155km/h...including the charging stops!!!...they drove 210km/h. They charged it for best loading speed from 5 to 50% in 8mins!!! The even earlier prototype of the CLA Tech...the EQXX...achieved 8kwh/100km driving 120km/h...they drove from Stuttgart to Silverstone...but the Battery was not empty...means they drove around Silverstone a little bit to empty it...1200km range using 100kwh Battery in this case. Seems they are able to transport a lot of this tech into the new MMA Platform...which is meant to be at 12kwh/100km.
Been saying for years that EVs need an overdrive gear and finally!! Get that mainstream and efficiency will be through the roof across the board. If that's the only thing that remains from concept to production allong with the overall design, it will have seriously moved the market on.
They are drawing a lot on the EQXX with this one, so I’d expect it to be very efficient in the 60-80mph range, and it sounds like it charge at Taycan like rates as well. Could be an excellent cross-continent cruiser

All expensive car deprecate fast...no difference to the past...and I am happy for it, since I always buy cars after view month used by the OEM itself...my last Passat was 50% off after only 13k km used.
A competitor for the Model 3? Not with Mercedes prizes. I ordered a model 3 but I don't think my banc account can cope with buying a Mercedes. Unless of course the Electric CLA will cost (way) less then it's ICE predecessor. Never the less: I love the looks of this Mercedes.
Apart from the electric power train the LUMINAR LiDAR is the most advanced and interesting peace at the car which makes it more safe. The rest is just Accessoires
Tesla m3s are dull. The obvious competitor for this car is the Hyundai Ioniq 6. Both these cars look like Batman’s “going out casually” car. And did you mention a shooting brake? I’m counting my savings already.
Hey Nicola, I’ve just handed back my CLA Shooting Brake and gone electric. It was an amazing car and always got Wow!s with it. I also think you’re Very Good at what you do. I like your style. Oh, and this concept car has got me thinking again.🙏🇲🇹🏴🇬🇧.
Oh don't you worry, these creases will not make into production, they will reduce them and slap glass on top of it (aerodynamics and to avoid dirt n snow piling up) so you get another big dull teardrop, just like all their current models.
Im excited to go back driving MB! I have BYD, for the price of my BYD its good but not as cool and fun to drive like my old MB C class 2015. Im ready to buy another MB. But the EQS is not appealing and mad L IMO. If this releases, ill buy it because I know what a MB car feels. And it looks cool.
Normal car, not an SUV, looks good and actually rather pretty, interesting interior. The dash actually reminds me a bit of the old beetle😃 I say they should get ready with the production line!
Well a German reporter already sat in the preproduction electric CLA as a passenger, and it looks inside absolutely nothing like this concept car. Video is on youtube
The child detection isn't new. 18 years ago Volvo was the first car to ever include that type of sensor. The Heartbeat Sensor was first introduced by Volvo in 2006 as part of the Personal Car Communicator (PCC) system. It debuted with the launch of the Volvo S80, which was the first model to feature this technology.
When I first looked at the thumbnail picture in this video I thought it's another AI generated image. So glad to know this is a real thing, that is as amazing as your presentation. I wish all car reviewers however stop comparing german electric cars to Tesla because to me there's nothing to compare really. Sitting in such a cabin alone would be worth everything tesla makes in one hundred years. It's like comparing a Rolex to a smartwatch.
The interior of this concept car reminds me of a 1960,s American milk bar juke box for some reason, and crossed with a ‘KitchenAid’ blender appliance 😮
I’m looking forward to trying the production version of this car! I much prefer the long screen MBUK over the rectangle centre screen, so hope they keep it…
i dont know, car review channels, sometimes say X car will be most likely in competition wit the 3 or Y, but the math dosnt compute.. sometimes they say it will be in competition with the Model Y but the car is way smaller, or less powerful or way more expensive, in which case its not a competition. if a car starts at $45K and another $65K its not a competition. they are in different price segments. if the car is a foot shorter, they are in a different segment, if one car base model dose 0-60mph in 9 and another 6 seconds, they are not competing, if you add these up, and you have a Model Y which accelerates faster, is longer and cheaper then another car, then its not competing with the Tesla model Y in any aspect..
Its gonna be overpriced, bringing them deficits and unreliable as F. Europeans were good at quality 20 years ago. Today its just as sh!t as everything else. Its just way more expensive than all the others sh!ts out there
The Mercedes-Benz Concept CLA Class was unveiled on September 4, 2023, at IAA Mobility in Munich, Germany. It's intriguing why they have decided to release a video about it at this time.
Because it will be official introduced soon in 2025...they already reached a world record with it...3770km in 24h and an average speed of 155km/h...including the charging stops!!!...they drove 210km/h. They charged it for best loading speed from 5 to 50% in 8mins!!!
This may approach the efficiency of my Ioniq wind knife, madness how a basically 8 year old ev design that was not even designed to be an EV is more efficient than anything else. Still getting 5.5 miles / kwh in November. Hope they deliver
This would make a nice replacement for my Model Y in 2/1/2 years time. Won’t need such a big car by then. I do like the CLA but I would like it even more if it had a hatchback.
I think we all know this will be priced beyond most family budgets. I can see why the EU want to tax/tariff Chinese cars out of the market, doing so will allow European car companies to continue to fleece us without competition.
I was hoping that the _"child detection facility"_ would work like this. When you left your car unattended and your car noticed some _"spotty young oik"_ loitering near your car, the bonnet would secretively open and a fist would appear. It would then KO the aforementioned _"spotty young oik",_ then return unseen into the bonnet. 🤔😲 😅🤣😂 👍
*I wonder when Scalextric will being out their first EV road car?* 🤔🤷♂ _After all, they were building full, 100% EV's, decades before anyone else were._ 🤔😲 😅🤣😂 I can still remember the smell of _"3-in-One Oil"_ on their motors from the 1960's! 🤔😉👍
I saw a video a few days ago of the production version of this car. It was in camouflage and the interior dash was covered. If they keep the overall shape of the car and something very close to the lights and light bar, it will be a hit! Obviously price will have yo be competitive with the model 3. Last thing is HP. I think the base needs to be at least 300 HP and then get higher with the AMG models.
Other than the gaping "fish mouth" front grille that`s a great looking car from Mercedes... Although it still can`t compete with the delectable Nicola...
yeah...they are going to tone it down so much like they did for the EQS, concept would look awesome while production would look meh., seems besides price the Chinese brands actually have their production cars looking like concept vehicles, e.g nio, hi-phi and the likes.
Actually a good looking MB EV, but let's see what thry actualy build. Sadly leaving kids in hot cars is a thing, at least in Australia. I still don't like the interior, still to disco for me, and probably a lot of MB buyers.
a brand is a promise. Mercedes used to promise well-and-beyond-necessary engineering, durability for a lifespan 2x other cars, highest level of safety, great stability and driveability at high speeds making it the best 20k miles/year car, available parts and maintenence for 20 years, and general old-money appeal. What does Mercedes promise today? Premium-ish-ness, higher prices, the newest gimmicks, and appeal to the bling-bling crowd. Which is why this one looks like a rolling Louis Vuitton bag with added light effects. Or did I miss something?
The most appealing thing about it is it's not another SUV.
At the same time . . . the most sad thing is . . . it is the next in an endless line of 4 door sedans. Like we didn't have enough 4-door sedans.
@@BMWHP2 It will make a pleasant change from the past decade of 9 out 10 new vehicles being boring boxes on wheels we've had here in Europe.
For me a 4 door hatch sedan is more than enough in term of practicality and way more beautiful and better to drive than an suv... Just look at an a7, a 8 series grancoupe, a amg 4 door coupe...
Took the words out of my mouth!
Well said
To be fair... they should just make it ASAP, there is no time left for legacy automakers to show prototypes for years, competition is fierce!
tbf the current CLA is still a very competitive car, good enough technology, amazing engine and transmission and they are actually fairly reliable, feels quite luxury, nice overall modern mercedes design and ok price, so I'm not feeling in need too much of a rush for this new one to come out
not from tesla anymore ...
I feel the same about the ONE ELEVEN but without that bizarre low-line aero-fixated underskirt.
Mercedes is known for playing around with concept cars. It's a thing they do and love.
China gonna rip off the designs in no time!
Do you remember the Mercedes Eqs concept?
That was one of the most beautiful car out there... And they were like.... " when the car comes out it will be almost the same" And everybody sees what the actual car looks like...

Nice to see some European innovation.

The Chinese are savage taking concept car into production no time to waste while legacy still teasing produce it already
This may approach the efficiency of my Ioniq wind knife, madness how a basically 8 year old ev design that was not even designed to be an EV is more efficient than anything else. Still getting 5.5 miles / kwh in November. Hope they deliver
Yes, but will it be 'A' series price range or EQE size prices?
Nice design, it's a shame it's technology is 10 years behind.
Beautiful but it’s only a concept. That’s all legacy can do is concept!
5.2 mpkwh is the only thing that matters.
Uuuu ❤❤❤ cannot wait for the shooting break version. But efficiency over 5?! Way to go 🤩
I like it a lot - I hope the production version will keep the good looks!
Uau they will have the same tech as Volvo EX90 , great! The design as a mazda wish but it's very cool
It's different and much better tech than the EX90, it's next gen tech derived from the Mercedes EQXX
Lets hope they have better quality control, the previous EQS was laden with software glitches.
This would make a nice replacement for my Model Y in 2/1/2 years time. Won’t need such a big car by then.

Wait...What...Why not just rig a JAMES BOND Ejection Seat in the rear & just BLAST the Little Ankle Biter out of the car!
Insanely cool
"Internet catnip"- brilliant turn of phrase! 😂
The reason they have to cover it with badges is because without them it could be anything.
I think the interior will just be a concept. The production version will have cloth seats, lots of boring standard equipment. After all it’s a CLA.

Interesting concept. I hope the exterior styling makes it to production. However, Nicola said Shooting Brake - finally Mercedes.
Great presentation as usual Nicola
The current EQS EQE are fine being first full grown EV from Mercedes.
They don't get it, do they?! We are tired of concept teases that rearly look like actual production.
That's why we are switching to Teslas!
5.2 miles per kWh… sounds like a concept of a car
Nearly as good as the original Ioniq!
It ALMOST deserves as many stars as you do! :)
I like it! Shame the grill lights & roof won't make it to production but a proper car WOW now I just need to win the lottery 😊
Wow Nicola. This is an amazing new Mercedes.
Actually a good looking MB EV, but let's see what thry actualy build. Sadly leaving kids in hot cars is a thing, at least in Australia. I still don't like the interior, still to disco for me, and probably a lot of MB buyers.
Just because host requested so politely I’m commenting 😂
I see no reason for them to remove the sparkle lights. Just remove the ability to heave the on if the car is in drive and moving above 10Km
Wow, was that video stuck in Internet Explorer for too long?
Why show the concept car of months ago now?

Mercedes used to promise well-and-beyond-necessary engineering, durability for a lifespan 2x other cars, highest level of safety, great stability and driveability at high speeds making it the best 20k miles/year car, available parts and maintenence for 20 years, and general old-money appeal.
