2015 Mercedes-Benz CLS 400 4MATIC Review - Wheels.ca
2015 Mercedes-Benz CLS 400 4MATIC at a glance BODY STYLE: four-door luxury coupe-like sedan. DRIVE METHOD: 4MATIC all-wheel drive. PRICE: $75,900, as tested $86,050. Think of me as superficial if you will when I say that styling is the first thing I think about when assessing a vehicle. The 2015 Mercedes-Benz CLS 400 4MATIC Coupe is one such vehicle. While it is the least powerful of the three in the CLS lineup for 2015 and the only one without a V8, it looks stunning and does so many things well that I would be delighted to have one in my garage on a full-time basis. Compared to its siblings, the CLS 400 is a real bargain, starting at $79,500 for a 329 hp turbocharged V6. The V8 models, the CLS 550 4MATIC and the CLS 63 AMG S-Model 4MATIC will run you $86,700 and $123,400 respectively. The latter two are definitely more performance oriented, particularly the AMG model that gives you 577 hp. All three models come only in 4MATIC all-wheel drive. Mercedes-Benz quotes a 0-100 km/h time of 5. 3 seconds, making the CLS 400 certainly no shrinking violet in the get-up-and-go department. Those 0-100 km/h times drop to 4,8 and 3. 6 seconds respectively for the CLS V8 models. Source: www.wheels.ca
