Mercedes-Benz Concept CLA-Class Is a Long-Range EV Stunner

The concept is an "electric first" clean-sheet design utilizing the new Mercedes-Benz Modular Architecture that was conceived to support entry-level EVs, and it does appear exactly as you might expect a next-generation CLA-class to look, albeit with numerous concept-car flourishes. Its approximate 185-inch length is about the same as the current CLA, which measures 184.6 inches.

In more familiar EPA terms, our translation suggests 400 miles of range and efficiency approaching 150 MPGe. What's more, the 800-volt architecture allows DC fast-charging at 250 kW, which could allow some 200 miles of range to be added in 15 minutes. Mercedes did not share the battery size, but the same calculations used to make the above estimates suggest that 90.0 kWh of usable capacity is likely.
