2027 CLA Sedan EV: Electric Luxury Sedan

2027 MERCEDES-BENZ CLA Sedan EV

Introducing the 2027 Mercedes-Benz CLA Sedan EV in D’Iberville

The 2027 Mercedes-Benz CLA Sedan EV brings long-range electric performance, streamlined sedan proportions, and next-generation digital technology into one compact luxury vehicle. It gives Gulf Coast drivers an alternative to the many electric crossovers on the market, combining a lower profile with an EPA-estimated range of up to 374 miles. Its Mercedes-Benz Operating System supports the latest MBUX interface, connected services, and EV-focused navigation.

Two models give shoppers distinct priorities. The rear-wheel-drive CLA 250+ Electric emphasizes range and efficiency, while the CLA 350 4MATIC® Electric adds a front motor, all-wheel drive, and quicker acceleration. Both use an 85-kWh usable battery, a two-speed transmission, and a maximum DC charging rate of 320 kW. Mercedes-Benz of South Mississippi can help D’Iberville shoppers decide which approach best fits commuting, highway travel, and personal performance preferences.

Interior Specs and Features

The CLA Sedan EV cabin uses a clean, technology-centered layout designed around the driver and front passenger. Standard heated power front seats include four-way lumbar adjustment and memory, while pre-entry climate control can prepare the cabin before departure. A fixed panoramic roof adds an open view above both seating rows.

Interior Dimensions

  • Front/rear headroom: 40.9/36.8 inches
  • Front/rear legroom: 42.2/33.6 inches
  • Front/rear shoulder room: 59.5/53.5 inches
  • Trunk capacity: 10.3 cubic feet
  • Front trunk capacity: 1.4 cubic feet

The generous front legroom supports longer commutes, while the trunk and front trunk divide cargo between two storage areas. The compact rear dimensions make the CLA Sedan EV best suited to drivers who prioritize front-seat comfort and sedan maneuverability over SUV-like passenger and cargo capacity.

Interior Highlights

  • Available dual-zone climate control through Exclusive Line
  • Available 64-color ambient lighting
  • Available sport seats with AMG® Line
  • Available SKY CONTROL roof with seven switchable transparent or opaque zones

Standard equipment addresses routine comfort, while the available design lines allow a more atmospheric or sport-oriented cabin. Pre-entry climate control can be especially useful for drivers preparing the vehicle before a warm Mississippi commute.

Exterior Design

The 2027 CLA Sedan EV combines an aerodynamic roofline with lighting details that reinforce its Mercedes-Benz identity. Its illuminated grille features an animated star pattern and an illuminated central Mercedes-Benz star, while the LED headlights incorporate star-shaped reflectors.

  • Width without/with mirrors: 73/79 inches
  • Overall height: 57.8 inches
  • Wheelbase: 109.8 inches

These dimensions give the CLA Sedan EV a composed highway stance without making it difficult to place in garages, parking areas, or tighter streets around D’Iberville. The manageable turning circle supports daily maneuverability.

Power and Performance

The electric CLA Sedan lineup offers a choice between rear-wheel-drive efficiency and dual-motor 4MATIC® all-wheel-drive performance. Both models use the same battery capacity and two-speed transmission, but their output, range, and acceleration differ.

Electric Motors and Battery

  • CLA 250+ Electric: One rear permanently excited synchronous motor, 268 horsepower, and 247 lb-ft of torque
  • CLA 350 4MATIC® Electric: Dual permanently excited synchronous motors, 349 horsepower, and 380 lb-ft of torque
  • Shared battery: 85-kWh usable lithium-ion battery
  • Estimated Zero–60 mph: 6.6 seconds for CLA 250+ and 4.8 seconds for CLA 350 4MATIC®

The CLA 250+ delivers the responsive performance many commuters need while reserving more battery capacity for range. The CLA 350 4MATIC® provides considerably quicker acceleration and all-wheel-drive 4MATIC® traction for drivers who want a more energetic character.

Transmission and Drivetrain

  • Two-speed transmission on both models
  • Rear-wheel drive on CLA 250+ Electric
  • 4MATIC® all-wheel drive on CLA 350 4MATIC® Electric
  • DYNAMIC SELECT with Comfort, Sport, ECO, and Individual programs
  • Four adjustable regenerative-braking settings

DYNAMIC SELECT changes vehicle response to match different driving priorities. The selectable recuperation levels also let the driver determine how strongly the CLA Sedan EV slows and recovers energy when lifting off the accelerator.

Driving Experience and Efficiency

  • EPA-estimated range: up to 374 miles for CLA 250+ Electric
  • EPA-estimated range: 312 miles for CLA 350 4MATIC Electric
  • Maximum DC charging capacity: 320 kW
  • AC charging capacity: 9.6 kW
  • 10%–80% DC charging time: 22 minutes
  • EPA-estimated combined efficiency: up to 126 MPGe for qualifying CLA 250+ configurations and 118 MPGe for CLA 350 4MATIC®

Range, efficiency, and charging times vary with wheel choice, temperature, battery state, charger output, speed, and driving conditions. Even with those variables, the verified figures make the CLA Sedan EV especially relevant to shoppers researching electric sedans for commuters in D’Iberville.

Key Technology Features

  • 14-inch central multimedia display
  • Facial-recognition profile authentication
  • MBUX Navigation with Electric Intelligence

  • CHARGE Public
  • Selfie camera
  • Available wireless smartphone charging with Exclusive Line
