Mercedes CLA Shooting Brake: Mercedes miniaturises its 'added grace and space' estate concept

摘要

The CLA Shooting Brake is the fifth model in Mercedes-Benz's compact range, all based on the front-drive platform that underpins the A-Class hatchback. Like the saloon version, the CLA wagon is intended to offer buyers an extra-powerful hit of the design flair that originally made the larger CLS so popular. A similar trick seems to have worked for the CLA, with its maker rating the model's launch as one of the best in recent years, particularly in the United States, where small 'sedans' are generally preferred over hatchbacks.
