Post 2024 Order Guide

Find attached. CLA 45 has been replaced with the S model in the US. They've also gotten rid of the Sun Yellow color, which is unbelievable!

Thank you for the post, bummer they don't have the Yellow Stitching leather option like the European models, but GREAT to get this vehicle in the US.

Is there an update in the last couple weeks to the order guide? Not everything shows in the online ordering, or matches up (like Code 459 AMG Ride Control).

CLA 45
Comparing the CLA 45 vs CLA 45s performance numbers, is there an engine component difference between the two? I've seen both mentions of solely ECU tune or different cooling used. Does anyone know?

I posted this in another thread. I’m not convinced there is a difference.

Someone who is much more knowledgeable than me would be able to elaborate but based on the vehicles weight and trap speed it is making way more than the claimed 382hp. I have yet to see any difference in straight line performance between the S and non S CLA 45 AMG. For reference my stock Focus RS had 350hp and trapped around 103mph. The CLA 45 AMG feels much, much faster and it’s not just because of the automatic. It pulls noticeably harder in gear. I’m not convinced there is any difference in output between the CLA 45 AMG “382hp” and the CLA 45 AMG S 416hp other than what MB is claiming. Not sure why they under report it, maybe to nudge people to the S.

I still think it’s cool that is is coming to the US though. Makes me wonder if I should have waited to buy, but I’m guessing these are going to be hard to find in a spec I like and then there will be the issue of markup.

If Weistec and others are getting 100+ more HP with just a tune, it seems MB would be easily capable of getting an additional 35 with just a tune.

True but they don't have a warranty, MB if offering it stock they need to back it up with a warranty but honestly speaking the Weistec and others' tune are very reliable anyways.

From the Dealer ordering guide

I tried get the sale guy to put in an order here in Canada and his manager said Benz Canada has not confirmed the 45s and is currently not accepting order. Sad.

Yes, it is in the order guide. When my dealer went to order it (type in the order in the MB system) earlier there was no 459 to be selected, and that is why I asked about it.

Just had my dealer check again, and the 459 AMG Ride Control does not show as a selectable option on a CLA45s in the USA.

Shop around as well, not all dealerships are created equal, some dealerships used to be corporately owned by TRG not anymore, now they are entirely privately owned.

I wonder if they are reluctant to admit the car is available is either 1. The salesperson doesn't know about it 2. They are planning a markup

That sounds about right... I got with my manager and it should be standard on the S, but even then you can still order them with AMG Ride control. We have three orders in at the moment with them.

If you guys have any questions feel free to reach out to me. I will be happy to check orders or answer questions.

I know there was a press release about the updated CLA but I don't think the specific models were officially approved for Canada last time I checked. You will see that in the fine print of the press releases.

In Canada, the CLA 35 is confirmed for Q4. The CLA 45 S also is confirmed, but is delayed and currently not orderable.

Q4 is not bad considering the facelift CLA 250 isn't here yet so is Canada getting both the CLA 250 facelift and CLA 35 around the same time then?
