2023 Mercedes-Benz AMG CLA 45 S 4MATIC+ Engine Specs

There's no denying it – the V8 era is fading in Affalterbach. Recent speculation about the return of the V8 for the C63 and E63 has been definitively quashed by Mercedes-AMG's CEO. This leaves only the top-tier models like the Mercedes-AMG SL, the massive S63, or the crowd-favourite G-Wagen with V8 options, and even these incorporate some form of electrification, be it mild hybrid or plug-in hybrid. The latter is a recipe for excess weight, as seen in the S63 E Performance’s 2.5 tonne kerb weigh

The Mercedes-AMG range has always been iconic for its insanely powerful models that never make sense on paper but always caresses the heart. Today, Mercedes-Benz Malaysia has updated that line-up with a refresh of the 2023 Mercedes-AMG CLA 45 S 4Matic+. While Mercedes-Benz is a serial killer for the term “coupe,” the 4-door CLA 45 S is a compelling argument for dismissal of the case. The 2.0-litre turbocharged 4-cylinder delivers 421 PS and 500 Nm, rocketing through the century sprint in just 4.

The Mercedes-Benz Concept CLA Class has been unveiled at IAA Mobility 2023 in Munich. This concept car is a preview of the company's new compact car platform, designed with an electric-first approach and built upon the Mercedes-Benz Modular Architecture (MMA). The concept's exterior modernizes the current CLA design, showcasing a lower black panel grille with an illuminated Mercedes emblem that is reminiscent of a starry night sky. The sides feature frameless doors, a subtler lower window line,

The 2021 Mercedes-AMG CLA 45 S is now equipped with Head Up Display, AMG Track Pace, and Active Parking Assist with Parktronic. Apart from those, the fully-imported CLA 45 S remains the same as before except the price – now at RM 453,374 (OTR without insurance, with SST discount), nearly RM 20k more than before. To recap, the Mercedes-AMG CLA 45 S is powered by the M139 2.0-litre engine that makes 421 PS and 500 Nm, paired to an 8-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission. The 4Matic+ emblem mean

Mercedes-Benz Malaysia introduced a trio of AMG models last week, one of them was the 2020 Mercedes-AMG CLA 45 S, a four-door coupe priced at RM 448,888. But there’s another AMG model with four doors, similar output levels, and in a similar price bracket (RM 421,888) – the Mercedes-AMG C43. So in this article, we'll be looking at the CLA 45 vs C43. CLA45 vs C43 Both are priced rather closely to one another because the Mercedes-AMG C43 is locally assembled, while the Mercedes-AMG CLA 45 S is full

Mercedes-Benz Malaysia has just introduced the 2020 all-new Mercedes-AMG CLA 45 S, alongside the A45 S AMG hatchback and A35 AMG hatchback. The new high-performance sedan is priced from RM 448,888 (on-the-road, without insurance). Just like the A45 S, power is derived from a 2.0-litre M139 turbocharged four-cylinder petrol engine that does 421 PS and 500 Nm, hooked up to an 8-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission. The 4Matic+ emblem means that the CLA 45 S features an all-wheel drive system.

Revealed early last year, the second-generation Mercedes-Benz CLA (C118) carries on the recipe that made its predecessor a success – sleek design, compact dimensions, and naturally, the badge. However, we think lower rung variants like Mercedes-Benz CLA 200 and CLA 250 won't make it here in Malaysia. Since the first generation CLA, younger demographics began to be associated with the brand, which marked the start of the change in brand image. These days, you’re more likely to find Mercedes-Benze

China's Great Wall Motor (GWM) have built a name for themselves in the off-road arena, and those capabilities were recently highlighted at the GWM Ice and Snow Festival, held from 9- to 15-January 2025, at Changbai Mountain. While the event emphasised bone-chilling weather – temperatures below -30 Celcius not uncommon – it was a showcase of Haval, Tank, and Poer models' capabilities in extreme conditions. In fact, it's something of a back-to-back torture test, as the cars were previously tested

Provisional data estimates that Chinese car brands in Malaysia ended 2024 with a 4.3% market share, up from last year’s 1.4%. The Malaysian Automotive Association (MAA) will be announcing the finalized tally for 2024 new car sales in the country, which is estimated to number around 810,000. Data published by JPJ, however, allows for some estimates to be made, but note that JPJ’s figures are not conclusive because they’re inflated by parallel-imported ‘recon’ units, and do not include heavy-duty
