Verdict
The CLA Electric’s headline is its 748 km claimed range from an 85 kWh battery, backed by 268 hp and rear-wheel drive. Its RM274,888 entry price sits well above the Tesla Model 3 from RM149,000, but below the BMW i4 from RM294,800. Buyers pay Mercedes money for the single AMG Line specification, not a broad menu of versions.
