Thank you for such a great video. I actually just got my 2020 Mercedes a 2 to 0. I absolutely love this car! It is certainly Peppy enough, The technology is amazing (The ambient lighting is stunning). And, amazingly, I have really come to like the voice command with “hey Mercedes” much more than I thought I would have. It is great at finding destinations, and controlling temperatures, sun blinds,etc...And don’t forget changing the ambient lighting to available 64 colors. Thanks again! This car not only looks beautiful, but it is fun to drive!

I recently had a CLA250 4matic as a loaner for a day. The 2.0T was surprisingly sporty for only 208hp on an AWD car. A tune will get you to about 250hp. The brakes were quite good. The only thing I wasn't really impressed with was the non-sporty handling. The CLA250 makes for a nice highway car, but I would not enjoy it in any emergency maneuvering. Not a car for twisty roads (neither is my SL500, though, but that's because the SL weighs half a ton more). The car really needs a sportier suspension. Maybe thee A220 will fix that.

Argh. You Americans are exhausting complaining about horse power. How much do you need? You don't even get the C180 which has a 1.6 turbo with 156hp and that is even more than adequate in a car that is heavier and larger (the C Class). So what is the issue? And in any case this is German horses not Japanese or American so other cars may make more horsepower but they will still be slower and feel slower.

Private party value is the same. The CLA is a tiny car and comparing a full size Avalon to a tiny car proves nothing. In actuallity shows that a full size car deprecates even more.
