News on the A, CLA and GLA-Class: Five more reasons for success
The diversity of models making up the successful compact class family from Mercedes-Benz is growing even further: with the CLA 200 CDI 4MATIC and CLA 220 CDI 4MATIC, the first all-wheel drive diesel variants of the new compact coupé will be making their debut in autumn. The CLA 200 CDI, as a front-wheel drive variant, is also to feature a new engine with a displacement of 2.2 instead of 1.8 litres. Furthermore, another new arrival in dealerships in September will be the A 220 4MATIC, an additional A-Class petrol model with all-wheel drive. And with the GLA 180 CDI, Mercedes-Benz is expanding the GLA-Class model range with a particularly economical entry-level model, which with the 7G-DCT dual clutch transmission boasts a combined fuel consumption of just 3.9 l/100 km.
Mercedes-Benz is extending the range of models in the successful compact class even further: with the new versions of the A, CLA and GLA-Class, in future there will be a further five good reasons to drive a Mercedes in the compact class too. Across the board the new models already currently meet the Euro 6 emissions standard and feature the ECO start/stop system as standard. The models of the CLA and A-Class can be ordered with immediate effect, while the A 220 4MATIC will be available to order from 31 July. The new versions will arrive in dealerships from September 2014.
The success story of the new compact car

A 220 4MATIC: fourth all-wheel drive petrol model
After the A 250 4MATIC, A 250 Sport 4MATIC and A 45 AMG 4MATIC, another A-Class petrol model featuring all-wheel drive is now making its debut in the guise of the A 220 4MATIC. The new model generates 135 kW (184 hp) from its 1991 cc four-cylinder turbocharged engine, accelerates to 100 km/h in 7.4 seconds and consumes 6.3 l/100 km, which corresponds to CO2 emissions of 148 g/km.
CLA 200 CDI: new diesel version
The engine of the CLA 200 CDI now has a displacement of 2.2 litres as opposed to 1.8 litres, the maximum output stands at 100 kW (136 hp) and maximum torque at 300 Nm. This engine incorporates numerous efficiency-enhancing measures. The modifications include optimisation of the belt drive system, a cylinder head package with camshaft roller bearing and additional finishing, optimisation of the vacuum pump, aluminium pistons with optimised assembly clearances and a low-friction ring package and optimised roller bearing for the Lanchester balancer shaft.
The CLA 200 CDI is even available in three model versions:
with manual transmission
with 7G-DCT dual clutch transmission
and also as a 4MATIC version (with 7G-DCT dual clutch transmission as standard)
The combined fuel consumption starting from 4.1 litres of diesel per 100 kilometres (CLA 200 CDI with manual transmission, with 7G-DCT: 4.0 l) is outstanding for this performance class and is one tenth better than the previous model with the 1.8-litre engine. The CLA 200 CDI is rated in efficiency class A+ and the CLA 200 CDI 4MATIC in efficiency class A.
Also now available as an option with all-wheel is the CLA 220 CDI. With the same displacement of 2.2 litres, the powerful diesel Coupé generates 125 kW (170 hp) and 350 Nm of torque.
GLA 180 CDI: new base model
With the GLA 180 CDI, Mercedes-Benz is adding an economical entry-level model tothe GL-Class model range. Key data for the four-cylinder diesel model: displacement of 1461 cc, output of 80 kW (109 hp) and maximum torque of 260 Nm in the range from 1750 to 2500 rpm.
The GLA 180 CDI has a top speed of 190 km/h and has a combined consumption figure of just 4.0 or 3.9 l/100 km (with manual transmission/7G-DCT).
