Mercedes-Benz is showing the CLA Concept Class at Auto China 2024

At the Auto China 2024 event, Mercedes-Benz will showcase the Concept CLA Class as its Beijing debut at its trade show debut. After the world premiere at IAA Mobility 2023 in Munich, the model was also shown at CES 2024 in Las Vegas. The prototype was the last in the Sindelfingen customer center.

A close-up of the upcoming CLA production concept offers insight into a family of future electric vehicles based on the Mercedes-Benz Common Architecture (MMA) and the company’s MB.OS operating system. The research and development team in China played an important role in its development from the beginning. MB.OS lays the foundation for a highly personalized customer experience.

The new, self-developed powertrain is derived directly from the VISION EQXX electric drive and includes an 800-volt electrical architecture with a battery with exceptional energy density and a highly efficient electric drive unit. With an expected range of more than 750 km (according to WLTP), the electric drive is the best and sets the benchmark in its class. According to the manufacturer, the energy consumption is about 12 kWh per 100 km, making the CLA Concept Class almost a “one liter car” of the electric age. The serial model will then be produced first in the Rastatt plant.
