While some manufacturers are pulling back from the passenger car side of the market, the launch of the CLA 45 last week is 'reinforcing the significance of this segment for our growth strategy,' said Tobias Moers, the head of Mercedes-AMG.
It comes with an all-new, turbocharged 2.0-liter engine that punches out 382 horsepower and 354 pound-feet of torque.
Now, the automaker plans to up its game with a high-performance version, the 2020 Mercedes-AMG CLA 45. Drawing power from an all-new, turbocharged 2.0-liter engine, it will punch out 382 horsepower and 354 pound-feet of torque. It's a big jump from the first-generation AMG model and is enough to launch from zero to 60 in just four seconds with a top speed of 155 mph.
Side skirts, larger alloy wheels and tires and twin round tailpipes complete the performance detailing, though what buyers won't see is a body that has been reinforced to improve stability at high speeds and when handling aggressive corners, Mercedes said.
