The CLA 45 SB is only a second off the E63 T and RS6 despite the much inferior power and peak speed! The handling is seriously impressive for a mostly FWD car

Saw someone (probably hans disguised @Corvolet3 ) on the A45 say ‘the only reason it got a 1:35.74 is cuz of Trofeo R! It would be 1:39 on regular PS4S.’

Well here we are, heavier CLA 45 S on PS4S is at a still respectable 1:37

Faster than the C63S even. Very impressive

Done at 21 degrees, could be a mid to high 1:36 in cooler conditions, matching the Audi RS3’s 1:36.63

Honestly the only thing holding this car back is the engine. I'm not saying it's bad, but if it was a longitudinal V6 system then it would be bonkers. But alas, it would have been made from scratch

More like 2 series but yeah, something along those lines. But I doubt they're gonna make anything serious of the new CLA. They clearly focus more on electric models there.

At least their CLA350 model has decent range. That counts for something, right? Right?....
