Mercedes Benz CLS: The harmony of another world

With its appearance more than a decade ago, the CLS created a new segment and thus started the trend of four-door coupes. It has evolved over time and got a brother with a shootingbrake backpack years ago. But that doesn't matter. With its appearance, the CLS is definitely the most elegant and at the same time extravagant car in the Mercedes fleet. In a way, from a completely different world. And that is good, or more than excellent.

Mercedes Benz CLS he lives in a world of irrational emotions to which those potential buyers with a love for something different and more prestigious succumb. His appearance is irrational, but at the same time also very naturally logical. With yours controversy, against logic, proves that such concepts in the automotive world can experience success stories. The starter in the four-door coupé class, it still remains at the very top of the class, both in terms of appearance, technology and prestige.

The CLS is a powerful coupe that convinces with its unusual appearance.

The ideal companion on long journeys when the driver gets caught in idleness and carelessness of the work environment and forget the noises of everyday life. CLS it convinces when driving, because it is so easy and simple that it is a trip with it almost boring. A kind of antithesis of reality, which can only tell us that it is an exceptional vehicle with exceptional technology.

Only this allows the driver even after 300 kilometers traveled in one piece to the destination in the same or better physical condition than when the journey began.

Incredibly harmonious and different shape impresses!

The reason lies in almost complete vehicle seats, which, in addition to more than generous seat adjustment functions, have both seat heating and cooling. Airmatic to the damping system, which swallows bumps in the road with anticipation, thus creating an almost symphonic feeling of harmony between the chassis and the body.

Cruise control, adaptive high beams, led intelligent road lighting systems, a camera for better visibility at night, a system for keeping a safe direction and a bunch of other aids that take some of the driver's worries away and allow him to concentrate on his main task... driving pleasure.


And this one is awesome, because the body cuts the air inaudible and does not allow air resistance or road noise into the interior. At times you doubt what is hidden under the hood. The diesel is practically inaudible, at least until you wake it up and get a reason to smile. CLS it's what it promises, it's a coupe and that's how it feels when driving.

The car has practically no lateral roll and grips the road like a bench, and it is one of the few vehicles where the skid threshold is so high that the average driver CLS, will never intentionally achieve. He also takes care of these feelings in part 4 NUTS, drive to all 4 wheels. 195 kW and 266 of horses means that there is enough energy under the hood for more playful driving. 25 percent more torque than the equivalent Audi A7 means that the sensations are simply better, or more concrete.

Almost insensitive and beautifully responsive 7-speed gearbox in combination with a diesel engine with an axle 350 CDI with 6 cylinders, means a combination that will impress you even at petrol stations, as consumption amounts to modest 7 liters. Here, it is important to be aware that the car accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in bad ones 6.4 seconds and achieves without any problems 250 km/h, where your breaking speed records is limited by electronics. CLS it is everything you can expect from Mercedes and more.

Driving sensations are fantastic! The combination of the 350CDI engine and 7-speed gearbox is a smooth combination.

There is definitely something more charm and imposingness vehicles that with their 5 meters length makes an impression. Those who say that length is not important will be convinced of the sporty one when they notice the envious looks of men and the gentle smiles of women behind the wheel of the CLS, which together and in turn prove that the CLS has a special charisma. One that is from some other, more harmonic world.
