Black Mercedes CLA 250 from a front three-quarter

Low Roof

Black Mercedes-Benz CLA 250

A saloon with the roofline of a coupé and the cheapest ambient-lit cabin Mercedes sells.

Rental in Los Angeles · from $102

Mercedes invented the four-door coupé to sell a shape rather than a size, and this is where the idea now starts.

The CLA is a compact saloon with the roof pulled down and the glass shortened — frameless doors, a tail that falls away, and a cabin that lights itself in sixty-four colours after dark. All of it for a hundred and two dollars a day.

Black Mercedes CLA 250 in profile
01The roof falls from above the front seats all the way to the boot lid. That line is the entire reason this car exists.

The frameless doors are the tell. Nothing at this price has them, and they are the reason the CLA reads as the expensive small Mercedes rather than the cheap one — the glass drops when you pull the handle and seals against the roof when you shut it.

The cabin does the rest. Twin screens under a single pane, turbine vents, and lighting that runs through the fascia and the doors in whatever colour you set it to.

Nothing else at this money has frameless doors.
You notice, every time you open one.

Queries

Where can I rent a Mercedes CLA 250 in Los Angeles?
Nizo Luxury rents the Mercedes CLA 250 in Los Angeles — +1 (424) 303-6496. It is $102 a day; we bring it to your hotel or your home, or you collect it at no charge from our office on Robertson Boulevard.
How much does it cost to rent a Mercedes CLA 250 in Los Angeles?
The black CLA 250 is $102 a day. Five days is priced as a block rather than as five separate days, and twenty-one as another; the quote takes whichever combination is cheaper for your dates, and neither has to be asked for. Delivery to our Beverly Hills partner hotels is complimentary.
Is the back seat usable?
For two adults on a short run, yes — but the roofline costs headroom, which is the trade the shape asks for. If the back seat matters more than the profile, take the GLC.
Can I see the dates before I call?
Yes — the diary on this page is the live fleet calendar. If a date is open there, it is open.

Renting the Mercedes CLA 250: the short answers

Can I book the Mercedes CLA 250 with a driver?
Yes. A chauffeur is from $100 an hour on a two-hour minimum, added to the car at its day rate — $502 for a four-hour evening in this car. No security deposit is taken on a chauffeured booking. The same car can be driven to the event and yours with the keys the morning after; the chauffeur service page has the runs and the hours.
What do I need to rent the Mercedes CLA 250, and can international guests book?
A driver of 21 or over with a licence held at least two years — between 21 and 24 a young-driver fee of $50 a day applies on this car, and under 21 is considered case by case. A major credit card in the primary renter's name for the refundable hold, and cover for the car: your own full-coverage policy if it extends to a rental, or our Protection plan arranged with the booking. International guests rent on a passport and a home-country licence; no International Driving Permit is needed. The hold is released 5–7 business days after a clean return, longer only if there is damage to price. If the age floor or the cover is the thing in the way, the same car goes out with a driver instead — that booking asks neither of you.
How far ahead should I book the Mercedes CLA 250, and can I change the dates?
There is no notice period: the calendar on this page shows the days it is free, and once a booking is paid a car that is free can be on its way to you in about an hour — same day included. Moving the dates is free, as often as you need, outside the last day before the start; a change inside it keeps one day's rate. What comes back if you cancel is set out in our terms and conditions.
Can the Mercedes CLA 250 be delivered to my hotel, my home or LAX?
Yes. Delivery is complimentary to the Beverly Wilshire, the Four Seasons at Doheny, L’Ermitage and the Maybourne, and collection from our Robertson Boulevard office costs nothing. LAX is $150 both ways with the car in the airport parking structure or $300 both ways to the terminal, half that for one direction. Any other address is priced by distance from the office, $75 one way inside 10 miles, and itemised on the quote before you pay.
How many miles are included, and can I take the Mercedes CLA 250 out of California?
Every car carries its own daily mileage allowance, and yours arrives in writing with the booking confirmation, together with the per-mile rate for anything over it. The car may leave the state — Las Vegas, Arizona, up the coast — as long as you tell us the plan in advance and keep the allowance in mind; it comes home to Los Angeles, since there is no one-way drop in another city.
What does a weekend in the Mercedes CLA 250 cost, and can I rent it by the hour?
$204 for two days and $306 for three, before the Protection plan, tax and any delivery — there is no separate weekend rate, and one day is the minimum on a Saturday too. The day is the shortest self-drive booking; by the hour, the car goes out with a driver, from $100 an hour on a two-hour minimum.
