Additionally, we offer an overview of the full specifications, an image gallery, detailed information about charging performance, and some online reviews. Our sections include:

Performance

The Mercedes CLA 350 4MATIC delivers a solid performance with a maximum power of 260 kW (354 hp / 349 bhp) and a total torque of 515 Nm (380 lb-ft). It accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h (0 to 62 mph) in 4.9 seconds and reaches a top speed of 210 km/h (131 mph), making it competitive within its class.

Battery, Range, and Charging

The high-capacity battery has a gross capacity of 90.0 kWh and a net usable capacity of 85.0 kWh, providing a 5.0 kWh buffer (5.6%) for battery protection. Operating at a nominal voltage of 706 volts, it qualifies as an 800-volt battery system. This high voltage is pivotal in enabling the system's charging capabilities. This Lithium-Ion battery utilizes NMC (Nickel Manganese Cobalt) technology.

Under the WLTP (Worldwide Harmonized Light Vehicles Test Procedure) standard, the vehicle's range varies between 771 to 672 km (479-418 miles), depending on the specific configuration and options, such as wheel size. Larger wheels can increase energy consumption and subsequently reduce the overall range. The vehicle's energy consumption is rated at 11.0 kWh/100 km for the base model and 12.6 kWh/100 km for the top-tier model under the WLTP test cycle.For more details about the range, see real-world data and range listings on this model’s range and consumption page.

The vehicle supports fast DC charging with a maximum power of 320 kW. Charging from 0% to 100% takes approximately 54 minutes, while a more typical scenario from 10% to 80% takes 19 minutes with an average charging speed of 192 kW. Considering an additional 5 minutes for each charging stop due to driving interruptions, the optimal charging range is from 2% to 66%. This results in an effective charging speed, including time lost, of 163 kW, with each charging session taking about 20 minutes and 59 seconds. This efficient charging capability makes the Mercedes CLA 350 4MATIC a convenient option for long-distance travel.

In a 1000 km challenge at a constant speed of 120 km/h (75 mph) with an assumed consumption rate of 18 kWh/100 km, the trip would take about 8 hours and 55 minutes, requiring two charging stops from 2% to 58%, totaling 35 minutes of charging time.

Onboard Charger

The standard onboard charger supports up to 11 kW for Level 1 and Level 2 AC charging, allowing a full charge from 0 to 100% in about 7 hours and 43 minutes using a home setup.

Charge Port

The location of the charge port is on the right rear side. This location makes it easy to use charge stations where you need to back up into the charger.

Connector types vary by market: this model uses CCS Combo 1 in North America and CCS Combo 2 in Europe. For complete specifications for all markets, refer to the full specifications.

Regenerative Braking

The regenerative braking system in this model offers several modes to enhance efficiency and driving experience. The most efficient option is the Automatic Regeneration Mode, where the vehicle coasts when possible and employs regenerative braking to reduce speed as needed.

Manual regeneration is another mode, where regenerative braking is controlled by pressing the brake pedal. The brake system blends in physical brakes only when necessary.

Another option is the Regen on Accelerator Pedal mode where regenerative braking is activated when the driver eases off the accelerator pedal. This system allows the vehicle to slow down and recover energy without the driver needing to press the brake pedal, a feature often referred to as one-pedal driving.

The maximum regenerative power is 200 kW.
