Make sure the automatic door lock is enabled in the cluster menu.

CLA is very small. Looks good but is small compared to E.

+1 on what arrie said, I'm 6,3 and i test drove a cla, could not get comfortable. keep the E class, IMHO the E looks a hundred times better then the Cla, bigger, has more power as well, compared to the cla-250 anyway.

I can't test drive one because we don't have them yet
Like can you tell me how low would I be downgraded if I get cla? Also can you tell me more abt it like does handles like a sport car? I read ppl had troubles backing up and cheking for blindspots also delaer told me its smaller then a C class? Don't get me wrong I'm in love with E class but its just on the picture cla gives me that fresh look

Another thing about the 250 engine is, if it is the same as they use on C250 now, is that it is a total joke. The turbo lag is so bad it is unreal. I have driven 3 of them as a loaner during my car being at service and they all were the same way so it just wasn't one bad one.


You definitely must test drive one and if they don't have the CLA yet go test drive a C with the same engine. You will understand what I mean.

Heck I am 5'6" and I felt the CLA was too boxed in

I didn't drive the CLA250, I just sat in it.
I'm 6'1' and was looking at the B pillar when I turned my head.
Having to lean forward to make a left is less than ideal.
