Longest-range EV in the UK tested - Mercedes CLA review

video description

Rating: 4.0; Vote: 1

Mercedes-Benz’ cheapest EV is also the one with the longest range. In fact, with 483 miles it beats every other electric car you can buy in the UK right now. But don’t worry, there’s a petrol hybrid version on the way as well. With a brand-new 800V platform, a two-speed gearbox for the drive motor and super-slippery aerodynamics, it has some of the best energy efficiency of any EV on sale, which means it doesn’t actually need an enormous battery to get the huge range. Join Illya Verpraet for some first impressions of what’s going to be a hugely significant car for the manufacturer. For even more detail, read the full review at

Watkins will do a great job for a couple of years. We’ve bought 2 players that everyone’s happy with. Don’t blow it now with a striker fans aren’t happy with.

The striker should be going on the tour too. Jackson (sent off twice in recent games) is just not good enough. Let him rot at Chelsea.

Autocar needs to invest in a decent microphone and some video production training. Mercedes needs to get back to classy, ageless interiors.

Specs look interesting but that cheap Temu interior kills any interest in the shooting brake version of this for me. Shame.
