I wrote this once in this comment section but you said that we should @ you: I ordered a CLA 220 4matic with all features which arrives in April. I now think of asking the dealership to switch to the C class 180 with the same features because it is equally expensive. I am not sure what to do because a lot of my friends said that the CLA built quality is so much worse and that I should switch to the C 180. Does anyone know one thing or two about this?

Messaged you on your other comment 🤓 Briefly summed up, it all depends what you’re after. Build Quality is very good on German cars but there is a difference from the entry level models of Mercedes and the higher models in the range (and the price 😅) I’m more than happy with my A-Class, but some would prefer to go up a step and have even more luxurious materials. Just depends what you want 🤓

Hi Nick Another helpful review thanks. I too fall into the group that’ll miss the touchpad - it’s not a big deal but swiping the screen repeatedly does tend to lead to smudges and smears (even with clean hands)! The other thing I usually take into consideration when comparing the likes of the forthcoming CLE Coupe and, say, CLA Coupe, is that 2 door cars tend to be more difficult to get out of in tight spaces like a garage because the doors are usually wider. Both cars are amazingly stylish in my view from what I can see, so if I’m fortunate enough to have the choice in a years time, it’ll be difficult to decide between them. Ken

I notice that you seem to have a reasonable amount of space for your legs sitting in the rear seats. I sat in the new shooting brake yesterday and it appears to be the same as my A class for space. I am a bit shorter than you at 5ft 10” but when the front seat is set for my driving position it would be impossible for me to get into the rear seat, I can’t even get my legs in as the seat back is so close to the rear seat squab. For my driving position I could really do with the steering wheel extending out a bit more.
@npoleary

The steering wheel can adjust and come out, but if you need extra space there’s loads of other models with more space for rear passengers. In Mercedes, C-Class & E-Class are a good model to consider 🤓

I don’t think there’s a way of telling unless you just try it. Mercedes’s can probably load up their spec sheets for the car and check for you if you get in you get in touch with them. So when you have the key, gesture kick underneath the boot without hitting your leg on the car and if you have it, it should open.

@npoleary
@npoleary 9 ай бұрын
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed the video! The tailgate will only close under certain scenarios. I would imagine these two are the most likely. 1) The boot button on the key is being pressed unintentionally as you’re leaning over (possibly with other things in pockets etc) 2) Or the other thing could be if you have the keys near the back of the car and your foot goes near / under the boot, if you have a feature called Hands Free Access, this will close the boot if it’s open. If you’re not sure give Mercedes a shout and they can let you know if you have it or not 🤓

@npoleary 27 күн бұрын
Just replied on the other post you commented on: Ah a CLA 250e is a plug-in hybrid, so it needs to be plugged in to charge. Yes when you drive in certain scenarios and brake it’ll recoup some power but will never recharge the battery fully, it just tops it up in really small amounts. The whole idea of a plug-in hybrid is to not use fuel for local smaller journeys which the car could achieve on electric. But you then have the convenience of a petrol engine for longer drives or on the odd occasion you can’t plug in. You don’t have to plug-in to do those drives, but the more you do, the cheaper it will be for you because running a car per mile is far cheaper on electric.

You ought to test drive both! As with all engines one will be better for you than the other. Modern diesels are very fast now so a CLA 200d is going to shave off at least a couple of seconds off compared to the A180d. It depends how many miles you’re going to and the initial cost price etc.

What is loading length with the back seat folded in CLA S.B in cm if it is 180cm or 200cm with front passenger seat all the way up to the front for maximum space it is very good. Also does the floor get flat when back seat is folded down. CLA S.B is obviously not a transportation car but maybe a option when you want something smaller without going up to C or E classes and still want to have some loading capacity in a more aerodynamic lighter car that is more easy to handle in narrow city streets and comparable with A class.

Maximum volume is 1310 litres with back seat folded down and largest cuboid possible to fit is 1397x639x532mm -475-liter.

hI Nick Do you have a petrol or diesel A class? I have noticed that in Mercedes sport executive CLA 200, the numbers of miles left goes down by a few miles when in stop and go traffic. Have you noticed this on your Mercedes?

Petrol 🤓 Yeah that happens in every car, that’s the worst driving for MPG and range for a car. Lots of start / stops with minimal time moving, you’ll use more fuel (apart from when the engine is off of course) But open it up on faster roads it’ll creep back up again. I see it every week when I do a long trip!

@npoleary
@npoleary 9 ай бұрын
Possibly Mild Hybrid tech in the boot? I don’t know for sure but just guessing. It might eat into the space underneath the floor that’s why there’s not really any space for storage in there. On the top it looks exactly the same though so for dogs / prams / luggage cases / shopping etc, shouldn’t impact the experience at all. But the car is more livelier and saves fuel!

Hey Nick. Sorry but can you answer some questions? Like I am living in the UK (NI) and it's not the first time my current car is for service or something at the Mercedes in belfast. Last time (2 weeks ago) I had it in and got a courtesy car and they told me its a brans new one... It seemed so... so a C-Class saloon with only 17!!! miles on it. But it was the "old" command system and the same controls I have on my 2016 C-Class estate... Why is that happening. why is Mercedes selling "old" styled cars here in the UK ?

So the new C-Class style is one with the portrait screen in the middle. Same as the one with my review here from last year: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/irCGadRiltrVlX0.htmlsi=qaVOtDzzyPi7GEJW If it was a different one then I wouldn’t have any idea, you’ll have to ask them! 😅

I ordered a CLA 220 4matic with all features which arrives in April. I now think of asking the dealership to switch to the C class 180 with the same features because it is equally expensive. I am not sure what to do because a lot of my friends said that the CLA built quality is so much worse and that I should switch to the C 180. Does anyone know one thing or two about this?
@npoleary
@npoleary 9 ай бұрын
Build Quality is a term used so much these days but honestly I don’t think anyone makes a mad car anymore. If you yourself are happy with the CLA, then it’ll be just fine 🤓 It depends on each persons viewpoint, I am more than happy with my A-Class which would be the same build quality as a CLA. But some would prefer some higher quality materials, this is why the A-Class and CLA are the entry levels cars in Mercedes. I’m not putting them down by any means, I love my car but there is a difference when you start venturing up the range from Premium Cars to Ultra Luxury 😎 Depends what you like from a car 🤓

I'm slightly confused as to why my pre facelift CLA is called the 250e but appears to have been renamed as the 200, same petrol engine size, performance and hybrid. Obviously i might be getting this wrong. I've never gotten more than low 20s range on the battery albeit even when the display shows it's empty the car still moves under battery power when reversing and driving at low speeds. Either way I wish the mild hybrid technology had been available to me (company car purchase) because it takes 1 hour 45 charging on a Fastned "fast charger" , 7.4kwh, to get that range. Not a great use of time. Personally I won't miss the touchpad, no matter how I set it I always find it too sensitive, inaccurate and also distracting when driving. Everything i need can be done using the screen or the steering wheel buttons or the Hey Mercedes voice commands, a fine water spray on a microfibre cloth once every now and then brings the screen, and gloss black interior trim, back as good as new. It would have made sense to swap the centre console Volume and Dynamic buttons to put the Dynamic closer to the driver and the Volume closer to the front seat passenger. Finally, i only just discovered that the rear seats in the Coupe can be folded down! Now that i know where the release catches are it's obvious but until i found them I thought I was heading for a £40 delivery fee from Ikea 😂
@npoleary
@npoleary 9 ай бұрын
Oh haha glad you found the seat folding down levers! They are quite useful! Just to confirm as you referenced 2 models of CLA at the start. For new cars, the CLA 200 is a mild hybrid. This is a small electric motor that only assists the engine with no “All-Electric” driving. All Electric driving is for a plug-in hybrid which is the CLA 250e. As it’s a plug-in hybrid it literally needs to be plugged in to drive on electric. Not a bad thing as it can be cheaper to drive on electric than fuel. This is of course for the UK, unless it’s different elsewhere (sorry it’s impossible to tell where everyone is based on KZfaq comments). For plug-in hybrid range, it can go up to 43-44 miles but as winter is coming this would be almost impossible at this time of year due to the cold weather. Use of heating, stop / start traffic in a town would reduce the range so it depends where you drive. If you’re ever going to test the range, aim for 23°C ambient temp, and aim for speeds of 40mph & 60mph 👍🏼

My CLA35 is probably my last Mercedes for a while. It's three years old and the panoramic sunroof stopped working (not like I used it much before). It won't respond either by COMAND voice control or by the switch in the switch cluster on the roof. The driver's door lock actuator is also playing up and won't drop the window when the door is opened and/or the COMAND (radio) won't stop working until the car's computer has worked out the driver's door is opened. 24-month warranty is just BS!!

Don’t worry I’ve heard this many times before but rest assured the entry level engines in the compact car range are not just "Renault engines", Mercedes and Renault have combined their efforts together to produce a very highly economical, low emission and powerful engine. It’s common for some manufacturers to share designs with each other. Others include Mini Peugeot sharing their engines, Volvo and Noble, Mercedes S-Class & Pagani Zonda and many others too. For the engine you’re talking about, Mercedes also put their own tech and spin into it and designed Formula One technology such as Nanoslide and even cylinder shut-off called CAMTRONIC allowing the cylinders to go down to 2! None of this is found in the Renault’s engines so no, they are definitely not the same at all. Even the new variants feature mild hybrid technology which also is not found on Renault models. Hope that answers your question!
