New Mercedes-Benz CLA Compact Four-Door Coupe Caught Undisguised During Photo Shoot!


For the past year or so, spy photographers have been following Mercedes-Benz engineers all over the world to capture a glimpse of the brand's upcoming CLA premium compact sedan, or as the Germans are likely to describe the car in their press material, a four-door coupe.
