Mercedes Bids Farewell to Compact AMG Sedan with a Loud, Exclusive Send-off | Carscoops
Mercedes bids farewell to the CLA 45 S with a new Final Edition.
This edition will launch early next year, featuring distinctive graphics and two-tone accents.
The vehicle is powered by a 2.0-liter turbo engine that generates 416 hp and 369 lb-ft of torque.
Mercedes revealed the updated CLA in March, and now the brand is preparing to part ways with its predecessor. As part of this move, they have unveiled the CLA 45 S Final Edition.
Set to be available in the United States early next year, this special edition boasts a Manufaktur Mountain Grey Magno exterior complemented by black and yellow graphics on the front doors and mirror caps. The two-tone design is also found on the 19-inch forged wheels, which feature a matte black finish with yellow accents.
Additionally, highlights include a silver chrome gas cap and glossy black brake calipers adorned with white "AMG" badges. The vehicle is outfitted with both the AMG Night Plus and AMG Aerodynamics Plus packages, which introduce glossy black and black chrome accents, along with a fixed rear spoiler, a larger splitter, and front flics.
The interior has also been given attention, offering buyers unique AMG Performance seats upholstered in black MB-Tex and microfiber. These seats come with yellow contrast stitching and "45 S" embroidery on the headrests.
Other special features include a Nappa leather/microfiber AMG Performance steering wheel and AMG floor mats with yellow contrast stitching. The car also includes illuminated sill plates and a "45 S Final Edition" badge on the center console.
Under the hood, it houses a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine that produces 416 hp (310 kW / 422 PS) and 369 lb-ft (500 Nm) of torque. This is paired with an eight-speed dual-clutch transmission and an AMG Performance 4MATIC+ all-wheel drive system, allowing the car to accelerate from 0-60 mph (0-96 km/h) in just four seconds and reach an electronically limited top speed of 155 mph (250 km/h).
While Mercedes has not disclosed the pricing, a "limited" number of these vehicles will be available in the U.S. The special edition will also be offered in Europe, where it can be purchased in either sedan or wagon form, featuring a night black uni exterior and a higher top speed of 168 mph (270 km/h).
