It performs well, maintenance is essential to keeping it functioning at optimal levels. The car does an excellent job of letting you know what services are needed or due. It is average concerning gas consumption. It does not come with an extra tire since all of the tires are run flat tires.

Luxury Inside and out. The car details speaks for itself classy and smooth.
I haven't had any problems with the vehicle. The seats are a bit uncomfortable on long trips. The ride is very smooth and it handles good. For it to be a 4 cylinder it picks up nicely. It's a great car to own. The room is the car is small and doesn't hold a lot.

Favorite car I have owned yet
Very reliable. The safety features are great. There are so many sensors in the car so if you even come to close to anything on the road it alerts you. I like having the run flat tires that way I don't have to worry about changing my tire on the highway or having to always have a spare. The car looks so pretty too. The inside is beautiful. It is definitely one of those cases where you get what you pay for. It drives so smoothly and hugs the road when you turn. It accelerates quickly. It is also great on gas .

Mercedes cla- luxury without the cost.
I haven’t had any problems with the car related to performance. It feels like a powerful, luxurious car without the price. The car is extremely reliable and has not needed any servicing other than oil changes and tire rotations. The vehicle is extremely comfortable and the leather seats are awesome. The screen in the vehicle is a bit small and I’d like to have apple play as a feature but Bluetooth connectivity and USB hookup and charging is good enough. I recommend this vehicle.

Overall great car with a lot of safety features.
The drive is very comfortable and I really like the pink up lighting in night mode. One thing that bothers me on longer drives is that the car will ding unexpectedly and suggest a coffee break. This can be ok, but as it is very normal for me to commute longer distances, I do not need such reminder.

The one most important thing that others should know about my car is that it truly has a lot of speed to it and can get up and go from zero to sixty in 4.9 seconds or less. Also, other individuals should know that I take pride in it and try to keep it as clean as possible.
I love what I affectionately term God's Benz because it has so many wonderful features; it is as if I am discovering new gadgets to play with every day. My Mercedes also is very sleek and aerodynamic, stylish and very low to the ground; when people look at it, it appears to keep them mesmerized. There are different gears that can be shifted to automatically and also various driving terrains that can be selected. The only thing that I would say that I dislike about my benz is that I wish I would have selected another color at times because white gets d***y so quickly.

If you are looking for a sporty car with luxury this is the car for you.
This car is amazing for someone looking for a entry level sporty Mercedes. Great on gas and interior technology is excellent, I opted for the moon roof and spoiler. The 18 inch rims upgrade was a good choice for the appearance the trunk provides a lot of space.

It gets great gas mileage and the workmanship is great. The manufacturer and dealer really stand by their products.
I love how smoothly it drives. The easy driver visibility when I look over the shoulder. The seats are very comfortable for me and my passengers. It's easy to put kids in car seats. Roomy trunk space.

Good car, great ride, comfortable for normal sized people.
It runs really well, and I love the features and the smooth ride it provides. Mercedes service prices are crazy, though. One feature I would change is that it is very difficult to recline the passenger seat. You have to crank a dial behind you. The tires are low profile which looks cool, but that means if there are temperature changes in your area, have an air pump on standby. It is comfortable, has a good sound system, enough space in the back seat to fit normal sized people. Overall a good car.

Apple CarPlay, red accents on interior and exterior.
Suspension is very stiff. Apple CarPlay and the infotainment system is very up to date. Easy to use. It does have a good interior as well but lacks space as it is a coupe. The car as a good look to it for its year and still looks modern a few years late. It is my favorite body style out of all the c-class.

Luxury at a cost, utility with an expensive catch.
Expensive parts and rides very low to the ground. Beautiful esthetically and it has great modern features. The car rides well and has a fast pickup. I wish the parts were readily available through OEM. I am not fond of the fragile leather on the seats.

I highly recommend Mercedes.
I have thoroughly enjoyed my vehicle and have not had any issues outside of the normal maintenance requirements. I will definitely be purchasing another Mercedes when it is time for an upgrade. My family has purchased multiple cars from Mercedes and we have never had any difficulties.

The radio display looks as if they put an iPad inside the vehicle! Very modern.
The leather seating is like butter and is even more luxurious with the heated seating. The back up camera and blind spot assistance is something I can no longer live without in a car and rely heavily on. Smooth ride especially being a 4matic. Speed gauge, temperature gauge and fuel is all on an electronically screen.

Sleek sporty body with Mercedes high tech features.
The cla 250 is a nice coupe car with the convenience of having four doors. The 18 inch rims really give the car a sleek look. Unfortunately due to the car being low to the ground and having run flat tires you hear a lot of outside noise in the cabin. I also have the Mercedes s500, while driving you hardly hear any outside noise in the cabin. So if you're looking for luxury I suggest going with another model Mercedes than the cla250.

Very cute compact vehicle.
I think the size of the car is excellent for urban because it is very easy to park without having to avoid compact parking space. The style of the car is very contemporary and sleek. I think the design of the seat can be more comfortable because right now I think the seat is a little bit too hard. This model is better for a younger group because it is harder for older people together in and out of the car.

Sleek and s**y with some imperfections
Honestly the car is pretty fire and the leather inside is from italy the only thing I have to say is that for a 4 seater it takes up a lot of gas

Not impressed with 2016 CLA
I wouldn't buy this car again. I've had to replace the battery even though I am still in my lease. The car doesn't give a smooth ride, my tires are loud, and service is awful. Maintenance is ridiculous. Almost $400 for an oil change and tire rotation.

When blasting music you cannot not hear it from outside which is nice.
I am not too much a of a fan of the "eco" feature. I live in a hilly city and it makes my car slide when I gas uphill. It is a small cramped car but works very well. A trunk once back into my car and the car was damaged really badly. Unfortunately, cars are no longer made with quality material.
Anna T

Cla 250 is a terrible vehicle with horrible drive.
As a Mercedes Benz I was very disappointed with this vehicle. The drive is nothing compared to other Mercedes Benz vehicles. This one I heard is not a German made car. Some parts are from Mexico and that explains why the drive is horrible and terrible.

Economic fuel car, nice detailing in and out, and most up to date gadgets.
My car is fuel efficient. Love the out side body shape and details. The inside back of the car is a little small. People that go in the back usually tell me. When the car is still and not moving the engine turns of not polluting the air. It had a big sunroof.

Not worth buying - save your money.
It is kind of uncomfortable to drive. It is a small car, not a lot of room. I regret buying it actually. It does not have a lot of features. Like the screen is not touch screen, you have to move everything with this circle handling thing, it is annoying. Not a lot of trunk space. Not worth the money.

Stylish in looks and great in performance for the price. Really worth it.
Its superb in acceleration. Maintenance is high. Engine shakes at 105mph. Seats are good. Tires get burnt easily and need to replace every 15 months. Interior is rich. Fuel economy is impressive. Stylish exterior. Nice bumper and spacious inside for 4 ppl seating.

Black on Black sports package
There are no vehicle problems. The car drives very smooth and it's very comfortable. I have they sports package along with the night package which is black on black everything and it looks so sleek. The sun room is so big it almost doubles as a moonroof. It has an interior camera for reversing and the sound system is top notch.

My vehicle is consistent and reliable. Exactly what you need a car to be.
Initially, I was reluctant to purchase my car because of the brand and costs. But, I can honestly say it was a great decision. My car is great on gas drives smooth. I have had no major issues. I love the Bluetooth capabilities in the car and USB ports in the console that allow multiple people to charge their phones. The leather is high quality and takes little care to maintain. The seats are really comfortable and there's tons of leg room and there is tons of trunk space. The car communicates if there is an issue, so that is super helpful. I have a warranty with my car, so I benefit from free checks and free car washes!

I enjoy having backup camera and blind spot assistance.
Car is very smooth, fast and fully equipped with the latest and greatest. I enjoy back up camera, blind spot assistance, and digital speed gauge. Very sleek and sharp looking. If you are in of speed this is the car for you. The leather seats are easy to maintain and the heat warmers are an awesome feature.

Beautiful CLA, but the price point is too high for the quality.
My CLA is my first Mercedes. I was initially impressed with the vehicle, but as time goes on I am less impressed with the value. Although the CLA is more of a base model for Mercedes, the price point of the vehicle does not reflect the quality. For example, I was disappointed to find that the passenger-side seat does not have power controls. The blind-spot assist also often malfunctions. The vehicle is beautiful, and rides really smoothly. I think that it is a very nice vehicle, but wouldn't pay the same for a similar vehicle. We have other Mercedes drivers in our household. I would choose a higher quality vehicle in the future.

Nice car but not worth it.
Loses its value extremely fast. It is very nice, comfortable, the technology is nice. Apple CarPlay and the screen is my favorite thing about the car. It has good gas mileage. But I will never buy a Mercedes again. You feel every bump really bad, maintenance is high. Not worth it unless you are rich.
Steen E

Stylish, sensible, not a braggy car. Economical, but luxurious.
I love the external design, especially the hood. Rims and side mirrors in separate color is a nice accent. The inside design is beautiful, but I would prefer matte to glossy wood on the dashboard.

It is a great car . Beautiful, fast and attracts a lot of attention
I love that it takes off fast, rumbles when i drive and is very sporting and eye catching. My only complaint would be that the backseat is very small and since it is a sports car/coupe, the backseat is very small and when i first started driving it, i had to get used to not being able to see that well outside of the windows.

To switch songs is a small circular knob that you turn- it is very convenient.
I have had great performance from my car. Features everything you need. One problem is it is much lower than I was used to, so you have to be careful of curbs.

Bright shining star with a quivering, noisy interior!
I love the style and color of the car, and its large sunroof. Gas mileage is as expected. My favorite feature is the illuminated star. The headlights get the job done but are not very strong. I wish the my model had led/halogen headlamps. The interior is pretty basic and I do not like that the display is not a touch screen. I am disappointed with the amount of noise the car makes (especially when driving on bumpy surfaces)' you can hear the plastic rattling within the dashboard.

Quality safety features and addons features.
It is a reliable vehicle. It has many safety features. I like that it alerts you if a vehicle is on side of you to avoid an accident. I like the turbo feature. It takes off from a stop really fast. I enjoy my sound system. It has high quality speakers. I enjoy Bluetooth compatibility. I enjoy the added feature of the SiriusXM radio as well.

2016 mercedes-benz cla-class.
This small coupe-like four-door luxury sedan is equipped with a 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine that produces 208 hp and a respectable 258 lb-ft of torque.Quick, polished engines. Superb fuel economy. Large trunk with wide opening. Nimble and composed. Cons: mediocre infotainment interface. Cramped back seat. Not as posh inside as classmates. Firm ride on rough roads.

It is a perfect fit for the young professional.
The current car I have now is my dream car. I have wanted it ever since I was 15 years old. Amazing mileage. Very comfortable. The car is super fast. And last but not least, the car is very luxurious. I would definitely recommend the car to a young professional. It is not very spacious, but if you are a single guy, it is the perfect guy for you.
Alyssa D

Top quality materials used but lacking essential tech features.
My vehicle has a great smooth feel to it, no speed at all, but smooth driving was more important to me. It tends to be great on gas to me, coming from owning a camaro that I would have to fill every 3 days. There is a saving gas option that you can initiate which turns the car completely off at stops. The design is impeccable for a basic model sedan of 2016, the only feature really missing is a back-up camera. Everything put into the car is top quality and it shows.

2016 mercedes-benz. A sweet ride.
I love the body style, very sleek. I love all the features inside such as dual air control and the knob the control the music. I live in Florida but will definitely use the heated seats if we go below 60 degrees. I also have the model with the panoramic sunroof and love looking up and seeing the sky instead of a ceiling full of material.

Great starter luxury vehicle!
It's a beautiful car and has amazing features the only issues I've had with it have been small like a faulty battery and stuck gas door but they were both fixed quickly. It also has a good deal of power to only be a four cylinder car but is still very cold on gas even though it requires premium gas. The only downside I've had is that since it's considered a 'four door coupe' you or your passengers don't get a lot of head room if you're sitting in the backseat. So I would not recommend this for someone who wouldn't have more than one passenger regularly. All and all it is a great entry level luxury vehicle if you're interested in getting your first luxury car or if you just need something smaller but still efficient in every way.

Cla 250 review on a 2016 Mercedes, love!
So reliable. Gas is awesome. I love how it runs and the engine is always smooth. Also it has a great return value. The only thing that makes it a downside is the cost for maintenance. However the luxury part of the car beats that issue out and makes you not care as much.

Amazing car - very few complaints.
I love the car. The seats are so comfortable, the drive is great. The car takes corners amazingly. I have no complaints. If I had to be super picky, I would say that the cup holders are pretty small and there's not a lot of storage in the car. It does not even fit the car manual.

My car does what it is supposed to do exceptionally. Many cars go from point A to point B , but my car does it better than everyone else's car. It does it safely and it also does it in style.
Overall I am happy with my vehicle. I wish I used it more, but I tend to not use it as much as I walk to work often if the weather permits. I like that my car is new, small, and easy to drive. One thing I dislike about my car is that it is kind of expensive to maintain. I had a service recently and it was over $400 and the car is only a few years old.

The performance of this vehicle is unmatched. Of all the cars I've owned, this one has been the most reliable.
It has been an extremely reliable vehicle. It gets fantastic gas mileage. It is very stylish. The only downfall to this car is it is a little small.
