Facelift for sleek CLA

The Mercedes-Benz CLA has been given a facelift.

The new-look CLA has a revised nose with aerodynamic tweaks to the bumpers and a ‘diamond-studded’radiator grille.

There are also changes inside which include extra brightwork around the switches, an optional eight-inch display screen and changes to the instrument panel which now feature red needles to make them easier to read.

LED headlamps will be another option as will upgrades to the car’s onboard media systems.

The changes will follow on estate models later in April when the restyled CLA Shooting Brake will be shown for the first time. Both versions will go on sale in the summer.
