Debuting in 2025, the CLA will be offered as either an EV, or with a hybridised combustion engine reportedly co-developed with Renault and Geely.

To be sure, compliance is not quite as cossetting as a full-sized luxury sedan. Hell, it’s not even in the same league as the base CLA 250 that costs roughly half the price. But, considering how serious-as-a-heart-attack the ride is in Sport+ mode, you’ll be thankful for the change in shock valving.

Mercedes-Benz is showing off its all-electric CLA prototype and sharing a few new details planned for the upcoming 2025 production version. The CEO of Mercedes-Benz Group, Ola Källenius, provides a limited tour of the car, in which he talks to its new AI assistant, and takes it for a spin in a new video posted by the automaker.

The production model will offer both single- and dual-motor configurations. The production CLA EV, which utilizes the brand's new MMA (Mercedes Modular Architecture), also will offer two different lithium-ion batteries, each with a different chemistry, and an 800-volt architecture. Range for the top version could reach 400 miles.

The 2025 Mercedes-Benz E-Class Sedan is a comfortable countryside cruiser. Its stately exterior elegance is only enhanced by its interior, which contains the best infotainment Mercedes offers on the market today.
