Recent Owner Reviews
5 reviews"CLA Electric: The air suspension on some models has reliability concerns. Replacement costs are eye-watering."
"The Electric Benz: The car has a brilliant performance, a very sporty an asthetic interior. I also love the way the headlight and the bonnet of car is designed. The pricing of this car is a bit on high side considering the space and comfort on the rear side. However, the car feels premium and gives a luxury feel in the front seats. Overall a very good car, highly recommend."
"CLA Electric: Running costs are extremely high. Insurance alone costs ₹1-2 lakhs annually. Service bills routinely cross ₹30,000."
"CLA Electric: Paint protection and ceramic coating pushed aggressively at delivery are overpriced and often mediocre quality."
"Benz My Dream Car: This is my dream car, so my rating will always be positive. But really, when I talk about this car, it is amazing and luxurious. It gives a better feeling than other cars, so this rating is not just because it is my dream car. This rating is based on how I feel while driving it and watching it run on the road. This car looks very pretty, and whenever people see it, they are shocked at how such comfort and luxury are possible at this price. Awesome!"
