Mercedes Benz made the world’s first 4-door coupe, the CLS quite some years ago. The old car was then replaced with a new generation model with the same name and today the car was launched in the Indian market. The car is now in the third generation of production. Despite having the last two generations of the car on sale, there is not a particularly high demand for this car in the Indian market. That did not stop the German carmaker from introducing this car to our market. The car carries an Ex-Showroom price of INR 84,70 Lakhs. The car still retains 4-doors and its very distinctive coupe-like shape.
The front Multibeam headlights get a more angular design, sort of inspired by the AMG-GTR sports car. You get exciting colour options with the car including Graphite Grey, Ruby Black, Designo Selenite Grey Magno and much more. On the inside, there are two 12.3-inch displays, one for the infotainment system and one for the drivers’ console. The infotainment screen is compatible with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto and is supported by a 13-speaker Burmester audio system. A range of 64 different colours is available for the interior ambient lighting. Under the bonnet is a 2-litre diesel engine which churns out 245 hp and 500 Nm. Moreover, the engine also is BS VI compliant with the current BS IV fuel. This engine propels this car from 0 to 100 in a mere 6.4 seconds and has a top speed of 250 kmph.
