  • Both these German luxury cars can take you to the lap of luxury. But we can not compare both of there vehicle because CLA is luxury 4 door coupe (that what Mercedes calls) with more power and stylish sedanthat receives new black highlights, giving the car a fresh look whereas if you are looking for a compact SUV with the same luxury features and comfort but with an AWD capability with world's most trustable and award-winning 4MATIC engine. Suggest you take a test drive of both the vehicle to feel the power and comfort of both the vehicles for better comparison please have look at the comparison by clicking the given link.

  • If need a sports hatch or cross over gla..for only commuting.with less luggage.Cla with new makeover coupe like rear and descent engine with boot will be the best buy.
  • Depending on your type you prefer compact SUVs or sedans

Q. Which car is best for me CLA, A class or E class?
  • All the three cars are different in their segments. Mercedes Benz E-class is one of the most famous offerings of the German car maker in the Indian market. In term of exteriors, the E-class features veryAerodynamic and contemporary styling, making it favourite among the business tycoons. The Mercedes-Benz A-Class in India is the cheapest offering and targets the customers who want to move into the luxury car segment but do not want a conventional sedan and would prefer a hatchback instead it has been the best selling car in its category. The Mercedes-Benz CLA-Class is one of the most beautiful 4-door coupes today and is targeted to the young luxury car buyer. With both petrol and diesel engines, the CLA-Class is a hand down winner. Choosing one will depend on one's requirements. Hereby we would recommend that you may please take the test drive of the cars to pick the best matching your needs and requirements.
  • MrRevant has all answers...I will say in another angle ..cla was an entry level sedan from merc in 2013 criticised for its lack of space ...spare in boot and unenthusiastic ride...but with new updates changed rear with decent boot ...it has a distinct coupe like look(nowadays coupe design getting all attention) it is the choice over much costlier E class and A class with unenthusiastic drive.
  • E class
Q. Which is the best car between Audi Q3 Quattro or Mercedes Benz GLA 220d 4 Matic?
  • Gla 220 d is an a class turned sports car..nice with plush interiors more..styling on 2020 model.cramped .rear is its demerit..good for two..q3 new model is an all rounder with manual option too..for all purposes with Audi service which is equivalent to peace of mind.
  • If you need some space and long tours go for q3 also good for commuting.pover D Savy enthusiasts can go for gla 4 matic 220d please take extended warranty.z
  • Q3 as iit is a multipurpose suv ...good commuter..tour friendly .mild offloading.

    Rear seats 

    If anyone really is a drive enthusiast looking for a performance car in the compact SUV segment, with lot of style and statement, this is the car to go for. Its really flashy, the petrol version (and only the petrol version in GLA) is pretty powerful to give you those driver adrenaline if you want those. The car is very communicative to the driver, and very safe such that a naive or beginner driver can quickly adapt to driving this car (my wife learnt to drive and enjoys driving my car). It is really safe with a lot of assisting features like the Active brake assist which I love for beginner drivers like my wife (the car senses the urgency to brake and assists in braking on time with the required intensity. On the other hand if I want to race the accelerators in a moment they sense my experienced footwork and lets me do what I want to do with the car. Its really communicative to my driving style. Comfort and styling though lagging in comparison to other higher version Mercedes cars, is definitely a lot more feature rich than the competitors BMW and AUDI. Space issues are there if someone is looking for a family SUV, But trust me I carried a 6 foot long 50kg kickboxing bag in my boot with the rear seats down and front passenger side seat a bit pushed ahead, still two of us me and my wife drove back with that bag. So although space on record and looks are really not so much as you would expect of an SUV, it is doable. Now those who go after style and fun really wont care much about space would they? And rear seats are fairly comfortable but a driver like me who have never sat on his rear seats of the previous cars in the last fifteen years cannot care less about rear seat comfort and spaces. For self the driver, space and comfort is pretty much competitive with peer brands though not as good as the higher versions of Merc which I would like to enjoy.
