Summary
The Mercedes-Benz CLA 250 is a 5-seat saloon with rear-wheel drive, not sold in the UK, but on sale from €52,872 in Germany and €51,134 in the Netherlands. It accelerates from 0 to 62 mph in 6.7 seconds, slower than 52% of the electric cars on sale in the UK. Its estimated real-world range is 301 miles (485 km) in a mix of town, country and motorway driving. That is longer than 74% of the 471 electric cars on sale in the UK, and 35th of 48 saloons.
It uses around 4.3 mi/kWh (146 Wh/km), more efficient than the typical EV on sale (3.5 mi/kWh). The usable battery holds 71 kWh and on a rapid charger it averages 150 kW between 10% and 80%. With one 15-minute charging stop, it can cover an estimated 410 miles (660 km) at motorway speeds.
It has a heat pump, which helps preserve range in cold weather, and it does not support vehicle-to-load (V2L). The battery uses NCM chemistry, which stores more energy for its weight than LFP.
