The personal rewards of striving to be the best are even more meaningful in the development of young people than they are for automobiles. Instilling the values
of leadership, goal-setting, discipline and teamwork in youth is an investment in everyone’s future. It’s why Mercedes-Benz USA is collaborating with the Laureus
Sport for Good Foundation, with an ongoing commitment to train and place hundreds of coaches for after-school and in-school sports programs in communities
around the country. Sports offer kids more than the chance to be physically active and have fun. It’s also an opportunity to have a mentor who can guide them,
help them learn how to deal with major life issues, and help them grow stronger not just physically but in their character. As a Mercedes-Benz driver, you become
a part of this effort to give hundreds of thousands of kids a better life today, and all of us a brighter tomorrow.

Item may be optional or not available on some models. See Packages and Options listing in this
brochure or visit MBUSA.com for more information.
Lower-aspect-ratio tires and accompanying wheels provide substantially increased treadwear,
increased tire noise and reduced ride comfort. Serious wheel and tire damage may occur if
the vehicle is operated on rough or damaged road surfaces or upon encountering road debris
or obstacles. These tires are not designed for use on snow and ice. Winter tires mounted on
appropriately sized and approved wheels are recommended for driving in those conditions. CLA
models are not provided with a spare tire. Vehicles not equipped with Extended Mobility tires
are provided with TIREFIT sealant and a portable air pump.
Mercedes me and Mercedes-Benz mbrace® services operate only where cellular and GPS
satellite signals are available, which are provided by third parties and not within the control
of Mercedes-Benz USA, LLC. Five years of the mbrace Connect package are included with
new-vehicle sales and leases at an authorized Mercedes-Benz dealer. Subscriber Agreement is
required for service to be active. Secure, Concierge and Entertain services require acceptance
of the complimentary mbrace Connect services, and paid subscriptions after their trial periods.
Some services are only available on select vehicles. Your PIN is required to use certain services.
WiFi and streaming apps require Multimedia Package, and an mbrace Entertain subscription.
Connection may be limited by cellular signal. Apps may be introduced, updated or deleted at
varying dates, and may also require a vehicle software update. Some services may be limited or
restricted in some areas. Driver is responsible for complying with traffic and other laws. Mobile
app is compatible with Apple iPhone® models running iOS 7.0 or later, and Android-based
phones running OS 2.3 or later. See your dealer or MBUSA.com/mercedesme for details.
2018 EPA estimated fuel economy (city/highway) is 24/37 mpg for CLA 250, and 24/32 mpg for
CLA 250 4matic. For AMG CLA 45, please see your dealer. Compare the estimated mpg to the
estimated mpg of other vehicles. You may get different mileage depending on how fast you drive,
weather conditions and trip length.

Stated rates of acceleration are estimated based upon manufacturer’s track results and may
vary depending on model, environmental and road surface conditions, driving style, elevation
and vehicle load.
No system, regardless of how advanced, can overcome the laws of physics or correct careless
driving. Please always wear your seat belt. Performance is limited by available traction, which
snow, ice and other conditions can affect. Always drive carefully, consistent with conditions.
Best performance in snow is obtained with winter tires.
Distance Pilot DISTRONIC® adaptive cruise control is no substitute for active driving
involvement. It does not adapt cruising speed in response to stationary objects, nor does it
predict the curvature and lane layout of the road ahead or the movement of vehicles ahead. It
is the driver’s responsibility at all times to be attentive to traffic and road conditions, and to
provide the steering, braking and other driving inputs necessary to retain control of the vehicle.
Drivers are cautioned not to wait for the system’s alerts before braking, as that may not afford
sufficient time and distance to brake safely.
The purchase of a new, satellite radio-enabled vehicle includes a 6‑month introductory
subscription to the Sirius All Access package, as well as a 5‑year introductory subscription to
SiriusXM Traffic and SiriusXM Weather when equipped with the Multimedia Package. SiriusXM
Traffic and Weather services are available for select markets. SiriusXM Satellite Radio, SiriusXM
Traffic and SiriusXM Weather subscriptions are sold separately or as a package after trial period.
If you decide to continue your subscription after your trial, the plan you choose will automatically
renew and you will be charged according to your chosen payment method at then-current rates.
Fees and taxes apply. To cancel you must call SiriusXM at 1‑866‑635‑2349. See SiriusXM Customer
Agreement for complete terms at siriusxm.com. All fees and programming subject to change.

While the navigation system provides directional assistance, the driver must remain focused on
safe driving behavior, including paying attention to traffic and street signs. The driver should
utilize the system’s audio cues while driving and should only consult the map or visual displays
once the vehicle has been stopped in a safe place. Maps do not cover all areas or all routes
within an area. Online features require a subscription and one or more mbrace Packages.
9 Apple CarPlay™ is a product of Apple Inc. Android Auto is a product of Google Inc. Device and
app providers’ terms and privacy statements apply. Requires connected compatible device and
data plan. Apps, content and features are selected solely by their providers. Connection to apps
and streaming services may be limited by the device’s network connection. Data usage is routed
through device and subject to fees, charges and restrictions in user’s wireless plan. Vehicle’s
factory audio/information interface, including COMAND® navigation and the apps of MercedesBenz mbrace,® may not be used simultaneously with Apple CarPlay or Android Auto. When Apple
CarPlay or Android Auto is in use, the steering-wheel voice control button accesses Siri® or
Google voice recognition software for voice commands.
10 Unsecured cargo can become hazardous in a collision. Always secure cargo using the floormounted tie-downs.
11 Active Brake Assist may not be sufficient to avoid an accident. It does not react to certain
stationary objects, nor recognize or predict the curvature and/or lane layout of the road or
every movement of vehicles ahead. It is the driver’s responsibility at all times to be attentive
to traffic and road conditions, and to provide the steering, braking and other driving inputs
necessary to retain control of the vehicle. Drivers are cautioned not to wait for the system’s
alerts before braking, as that may not afford sufficient time and distance to brake safely. See
Operator’s Manual for system’s operating speeds and additional information and warnings.
12 Rearview camera does not audibly notify driver of nearby objects and is not a substitute for
actively checking around the vehicle for any obstacles or people. Images displayed may be
limited by camera field of view, weather, lighting conditions and the presence of dirt, ice or snow
on the camera.
13 Driving while drowsy or distracted is dangerous and must be avoided. ATTENTION ASSIST® and/
or Lane Keeping Assist are warning systems only, and cannot be relied on to avoid an accident
or serious injury. They may not be sufficient to alert a fatigued, distracted or inattentive driver,
and cannot override the laws of physics. See Operator’s Manual for system’s operating speeds
and additional information and warnings.
14 Blind Spot Assist is a warning system only, and may not be sufficient to avoid all accidents
involving vehicles in your blind spot and does not estimate the speed of approaching vehicles. It
should not be used as a sole substitute for driver awareness and checking of surrounding traffic
conditions. See Operator’s Manual for system’s operating speeds and additional information
and warnings.
15 Parking Pilot is not a substitute for driver attention to the immediate surroundings, as well as any
people, animals or vehicles in or approaching the vehicle’s maneuvering range. System cannot
determine if a space is legally available or of a suitable surface for parking. See Operator’s
Manual for additional information, tips and warnings.
16 Competitive claim based on manufacturer-published horsepower data available at time of
