Mercedes-Benz Opens India Bookings for Electric CLA, Confirms Two Variants and April Deliveries

Mercedes is positioning the compact EV for first-time luxury buyers with WLTP range claims up to 792 km.

Overview

  • Reservations are now open via dealerships and the official site with a Rs 1.5 lakh booking amount.
  • India gets two trims: CLA 250+ Long Range with a claimed 792 km WLTP range and CLA 200 Standard Range with a claimed 542 km WLTP range.
  • Mercedes-Benz says the CLA 200’s features largely mirror the CLA 250+, with differences mainly in styling and seat comfort.
  • Deliveries are planned in phases, with the CLA 250+ slated for late April 2026 and the CLA 200 by late June 2026.
  • Early media drives reported strong efficiency of about 6.3 km/kWh (around 535 km real-world) and refined dynamics, while noting tight rear-seat space and touchscreen-heavy controls; tentative prices and a complimentary 22 kW wall charger for pre-bookings have been reported but are not officially announced.
