Really? What did you enjoy about this Nigerian style infomercial? The car was never designed with countries like Nigeria in the minds of the designers. ....have you ever seen the poor state of maintenance of Nigerian roads?
@@lkylky1730 just a good all round exploration of the car, flaws & good bits ect no intention of owning one cos I currently drive an X model bmw but love a good review which this is. Btw I seen Snapchat videos of guys in Nigeria driving Lamborghini and Ferraris , in what road do they drive those non existent ground clearance supercars of what you say about the roads are accurate!!
Here is a story when the CLA first came out and I wanted to buy it. First I have the c230 kompressor of way back. When I went back to upgrade to the newer CLA, believe it or not there at a Mercedes dealership, one of the sellers told me outright not to buy the CLA. I asked him why and he said that car is a complete nonsense. Well not really exactly so 😋 but an ENTRY LEVEL CAR to be exact. As in no power just like any other car on the street with a big giant Mercedes logo and grill. He said the car was designed completely to attract young folks into the Mercedes family. To enjoy Mercedes , not even the C whatever nowadays, instead from E class. Story short I winded up buying an E class. I Love my E class and still have my old c230 kompressor. Mercedes Benz still the best car maker out there for me. Elegance, quality and made to last. Go figure, every world leaders have Mercedes on their fleet of cars and usually there go to, there number one on world stage. Much love from California 👍
The Cla was not built for Nigerian roads or weather. One of its main purpose, was for college kids in America to be able to afford it. The front wheel base drive, is due to winter weather. During snowfall, you need acceleration & grip.
I have a CLA250 Edition one and its definatly NOT built for driving in Winter. The suspension is to hard and not made for driving on snow. Its very unstable and "interesting" to drive. But in summer with good tires the suspension is insane - its like glued to the road.
FWD has nothing to do with winter, it's just that the platform is based on the A-class one, which needs to be FWD as every other hatchback for interior space purposes
@@thompsons1837 i'm not saying FWD is not better for winter weather, I'm saying mercedes choice to go for FWD on the CLA has nothing to do with winter, they only chose that layout because the existing A class chassis needed the extra backseat/trunk space and therefore couldn't use the RWD C-class chassis
Wonders shall never end, if this is true. I mentioned this earlier in my comment about auto companies cutting corners to meet up with consumer budget demand, it's sad and funny at the same time to think of what Mercedes has become over solid years of customer trust.
Its the 1.5 dci, in the diesel cla 180. Its a very old engine, and used to be unreliable, but it's been perfected over the years and by the time it got in the CLA all the buggs are worked out. Its actually a good engine and quite bulletproof. All the other cla's have real Mercedes engines 😉
@@seayok414 How is it funny? There is a great difference between cars used in Nigeria and the ones used in Europe. My 2000 Mercedes Benz W210 E55 AMG is still like new. The car doesn't know what potholes are and I use it only on weekends. I have another old Peugeot that I use on daily basis.
Thanks for this video. I absolutely love this car. My late dad was a Benz lover so I grew up driving the older generation Mercedes but I’ve never owned one of my own. I think I don’t mind all the problems you’ve mentioned except how low it is. That would be a big problem for me in Lagos. So I’ll probably buy the RX350 and then buy this one later. Nice one bro 🫶🏿
Omo I no go buy car make go they give me problems oo. Thank God say I subscribe to your channel the first day make I see your review about the c300 oo. Thanks blood. Your review they always sharp❤
Bro if you need a confirm Benz CLA, go for CLA 45 coz it an amg but it way expensive and competes with c43..and faster than a c43 from 0 to 60mph/100kph
Owners can increase the height (ground clearance) buy adding approved height pads or adjustable suspension kits. Having additional 1½ inches ground clearance is allowed.
A few things to keep in mind, servicing your transmission once a year is a bit overkill. Mercedes usually recommend service every 4 years or 40,000 miles but depending on transmission type, the age of the vehicle, how much you drive, and a few more factors can change. Also, the first Mercedes FWD is not the CLA. lol.
@@Kamalu90 The CLA is not the first FWD made by Mercedes its most likely the A Class and that was from 1996. Maybe the first sedan, but certainly not the first model.
Nice review as always Crank. Truth be told the CLA is about the most fraudulent car in Nigeria. It is a cheap car that is heavily overpriced. I always wonder why people will be willing to pay about the same amount for the W205(C Class) for the C117(CLA). The A Class & B Class(which is the platform the C117 is based upon) are actually FWD marketed in Europe & Africa Nigeria inclusive. The C117 just happened to be the 1st FWD Benz marketed in North America.
Have you done your research on the M274 engine which comes on the w205 and the w213? Lol people just come online and type whatever they want or feel like or claim to know everything.
@@faizbabaji3343 Nah! Have not done any research on the Engine, But what I know for certain is that CLA is overpriced & overhyped vis-à-vis quality & class

Nigeria car dealer has made this car and gla so expensive.

Kudos Crank, I must confess that you really know your onions about the cars you review. The CLA in my honest opinion lacks the ergonomics of a thorough bred German sedan, especially in this era where the accountants at MB call the shots through cutting cost to meet up with consumer budget demand, you can experience this with the interior that reek of cheap plastic and fake chrome. What Mercedes is doing presently, is selling to us a brand name that is coasting on the coattails of their past glory, and furthermore, as tech innovation increases in these vehicles reliability is gradually kicked outta the window. SAD😭
@@MarkSmith-Uzor looks too good and has the MBUX for an entry level Benz especially the face lifted ones, they look good but slow af unless you get the 35 or 45 versions which then become very expensive and you rather go for a C43 which is priced the same with better materials, I got the 2020 CLA250 a week ago and I swear it’s the worst car I’ve ever driven in my entire life.
I’ve worked on this car, the parts are cheaply made, the back seats are smaller than they look… if you do buy it, change the water pump and alternator right away… it is still a fun car, I like it… need more ground clearance tho, have to be careful around uneven road, especially the bumper…Never fix the alternator or water pump…. Just get a new one
This review isn’t perfect but he tried. I’ve driven my cla for about 120k miles now, it hasn’t given me issues. I think for the rest things you are right.
It might interest you to know that the leather in a Camry is more original than the one used in a Mercedes. This is because Mercedes developed a synthetic leather material called MB-Tex which it uses as standard for most, if not all its cars since the 60s.
You are correct to an extent.. MB-Tex like you rightly said is synthetic which is used for their base trim levels compared to foam (formica) used in Japanese brand, but when you opt for higher trims in Mercedes you get genuine plush leather unmatched by any auto maker you can think of
You'd hardly see a torn leather seat in the Camry 2008, 2009 and 2010 models, but most used Mercedes C class of 2008, 2009 and 2010 have torn leather on the driver's seat
Skip the CLA and just get the c300 you'll be very happy. It drives better and handles better and the seats on the c300 are leather and not leatherette (CLA)
If you love a car that won’t give you stress, it’s best to avoid the C300. Sure it drives great and seats comfortable and all that but I’ve recorded so many c300 broken down on the road and and people complaining about how they had to change the engine or do a complete engine rebuild. To avoid problems like this, u could just get the C450 instead.
This isn't the first charged 4 engine Mercedes has made; as a matter lf fact, they have been doing it for decades and pretty much know what they're doing. Plus, putting 'additives', especially indiscriminately in gas actually worsens things up. It doesn't help. Found the rest of the review practical and your passion, infectious 👍
@@234drive, many actually. For a relatively recent example before the CLA debuted, the '02 CLK 200 (W208 or 9 - can't remember which offhand now) came with a charged engine. Remember the C Klasses that came up from the assembly lines circa 1995 with red valve covers? Those are ALL NOT naturally aspirated: they were and remain charged. However, the very first attempt was in 1921 when DMG (as the company was known then) presented the first supercharged passenger vehicle at the Berlin Motor Show, the very first auto company to do so. So, as you can clearly see, Mercedes is no learner in this forced induction game...in fact, it is a godfather, having introduced the game to passenger vehicles decades ago, or rather, just over a century ago!
According to most Mercedes car manuals, you’re not supposed to even fill up that tank with non premium fuel. You only use non premium fuel to get to a gas station that has premium fuel. Same with E class and most of the other recent Mercedes cars.
@@olatundeabiri7048 please can you recommend some of those fuel treatments and names to use, there are many in the markets today and one gets confused at ones to buy for Mercedes cars, thanks
I don't think it is overpriced. That a brand new sold for 18million 8years ago and now a tokunbo sells for 12million is expected. Have we forgotten that the naira traded at 165 naira to a dollar 8 years ago and today trades for about 600 naira to a dollar? Since these cars are all imported, it is no surprise that the price would be influenced by that.
Even 2015-2016 Benz c300 ain’t a sport car I always tell people, When I was using the Benz I make sure I don’t drive like a thief, I make sure the turbo pick before running or anything’s.
Simple fact , the car wasn't made for African market. When u buy from Europe and America and u ship to Africa, that's the problems u will face, especially with fuel availabilities. The ones made for African market has a different fuel injector system and few things that can take regular petrol or diesel fuel . Now doing oil change u need full synthetic oil , preferably mobile one brand, not authentic oil , it's synthetic oil, and it's very expensive. Any vehicle that uses premium oils( synthetic) has to use premium fuel . Last but not least , too much dust can shorten your car's lifespan .
You should know that the CLA is an A class mercedes benz and not a C class like most people think. Hence, it is different from the C class we are mostly used to in Nigeria. Those features you calling out are similar with other A class sedans.

Since these cars are all imported, it is no surprise that the price would be influenced by that.
Wow see my guy Mohammed is here
nice review,but please work on the mic ,breeze da disturb,plus the background music is loudddddddddd
Phew, okay
Even 2015-2016 Benz c300 ain’t a sport car I always tell people, When I was using the Benz I make sure I don’t drive like a thief, I make sure the turbo pick before running or anything’s.
You're going a great job bro...more greeze to your elbows.

Omo bro the car is mad swrs....buh honestly I agree with you 100% Benz is over hyped in Nigeria and it is also affecting the price.

Bro! Please can you make a review on 2016 Mercedes Benz c400 and 2016 c300
Love from Liberia🇱🇷
Simple fact , the car wasn't made for African market. When u buy from Europe and America and u ship to Africa, that's the problems u will face, especially with fuel availabilities. The ones made for African market has a different fuel injector system and few things that can take regular petrol or diesel fuel .
Now doing oil change u need full synthetic oil , preferably mobile one brand, not authentic oil , it's synthetic oil, and it's very expensive.
Any vehicle that uses premium oils( synthetic) has to use premium fuel .
Last but not least , too much dust can shorten your car's lifespan .
nice one crank..............not the 'its plenty' people
Crank Please Do an Acura TL review
You should know that the CLA is an A class mercedes benz and not a C class like most people think. Hence, it is different from the C class we are mostly used to in Nigeria. Those features you calling out are similar with other A class sedans.
Good video bro !
Cheff the old A and B classes are frontwheel drive to
