Mercedes-Benz CLA Class Plug-In Petrol Hybrid Cars
The Mercedes-Benz CLA Class Plug-In Petrol Hybrid is a car that boasts not only stunning looks, but also impressive environmental credentials. It combines a 1.3-litre petrol engine with an electric motor to produce an output of 215bhp. The car can run on electricity alone for up to 42 miles and reaches speeds of up to 87mph in this mode.
For UK drivers, the CLA Class Hybrid offers some great benefits. Firstly, its CO2 emissions are incredibly low - at just 31g/km - making it exempt from road tax and the London Congestion Charge. Its electric-only range also means that commuters driving into cities can avoid charges and penalties.
Despite being eco-friendly, the CLA Class Hybrid doesn't skimp on luxury features either. It comes packed with all sorts of equipment as standard such as LED lights, sat-nav, automatic climate control, heated front seats, ambient lighting and adaptive cruise control to name just a few.
Furthermore, being a Mercedes-Benz product, build quality is excellent and handling is sharp yet refined which should suit British drivers who value driving enjoyment and refinement.
While practicality may not be a strong point of this model due to the sloping roofline there's still enough room for four people to sit comfortably in the cabin, however those above average height will need to take note when getting in or out of the car’s backseats.
Overall though, the Mercedes-Benz CLA Class Plug-In Petrol Hybrid seems like a sensible option for those who want performance alongside green credentials without compromising on style or luxury; It appears well-suited for busy UK roads given its ability to operate solely on electricity while at low speeds or stuck in stop-start traffic.
