Adorned with striking orange trim and bold AMG branding, this edition is a standout on the road, making it unmistakably distinct from its standard CLA-Class counterparts.
With a hefty price tag of $82,435, including the mandatory destination fee of $1,150, the Edition 1 promises a wealth of features and enhancements that justify its premium cost. Noteworthy inclusions are the AMG Aerodynamics Package, which adds a front splitter, rear spoiler, and a larger rear diffuser, along with the AMG Night Package Plus, boasting black badges and a grille blackout treatment, complementing the Edition 1’s Manufaktur Mountain Grey Magno exterior finish.
The exterior’s orange accents extend throughout the lower fascias, side mirrors, and rocker panels, accentuating the vehicle’s sporty appeal. Inside, the AMG trim and contrast stitching, adding a vibrant touch to the cabin. Further enhancements include orange stitching on the dash, CLA45 S branding on the headrests, and special interior lighting, elevating the interior ambiance to match the car’s performance pedigree.
While the Edition 1 primarily focuses on aesthetic upgrades, its performance credentials remain formidable. Powered by AMG’s potent 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine, producing an impressive 416 horsepower and 369 pound-feet of torque, the CLA45 S Edition 1 offers exhilarating performance. Coupled with a responsive eight-speed dual-clutch gearbox and all-wheel-drive system, it sprints from 0 to 60 mph in just 4.0 seconds, delivering an exhilarating driving experience.
Although the Edition 1 comes at a premium compared to the standard CLA45 S, priced slightly over $70,000 with similar packages, its exclusivity and enhanced aesthetics are sure to attract discerning buyers. With only 25 units available, each promising a unique blend of performance and luxury, the Mercedes-AMG CLA45 S Edition 1 is poised to captivate enthusiasts and collectors alike, ensuring its status as a coveted symbol of automotive excellence.
