Overview

Mercedes-Benz CLS-Class 500 Image

The new Mercedes-Benz CLS-Class is a fusion of the strong emotive charisma of a coupe and the comfort and practicality of a sedan. CLS has infused a classic look and an inimitable style to its interior after receiving a make-over. The four-seat cabin and elegant exterior styling distinguishes the CLS car most readily from the other Mercedes sedans. The CLS-Class comes in two variants in India: CLS 350 and CLS 500. The CLS 350 comes with a 3.0L V6 engine that produces 272 bhp and the CLS 500 is equipped with a more powerful 5.0L V8 engine that pumps out 230 bhp. A 7-speed automatic transmission comes standard with both engines. The CLS 500 model features an AIRMATIC DC air suspension and a THERMOTRONIC four-zone climate control to provide high levels of comfort and a smooth drive.
