Nice, I've been waiting for Motor Week to review this car. Can't wait to watch it.

Good review. Trapping 110 in cold temps is reasonable. Great mpg.

Great review - I love the CLA-45 AMG. If I did not need a bigger car I would have one in my garage.

5.0 much slower than expected. Did they even use launch control?

They said it was due to the freezing race track. They thought it would be 1/2 to 3/4 a sec faster in normal conditions.

Great video! Thanks for posting! Performance numbers are a little disappointing, but like you said, they admitted the cold conditions of the track were slightly hindering. I was just surprised, being an AWD car, it was affected as much. Especially the 1/4 mile time…13.3?
