Low Roof
Black Mercedes-Benz CLA 250
A saloon with the roofline of a coupé and the cheapest ambient-lit cabin Mercedes sells.
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.

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.
02Twin screens under one pane, lit through the fascia in whichever of sixty-four colours you chose, and a wheel with the switchgear of a much bigger car.
