Mercedes CLA 260 Shooting Brake 4MATIC with Airride!

Recently updated on February 23, 2022 at 11:02 am

It's one of the surprises when it comes to sales of Mercedes-Benz models around the world. the CLA Shooting Brake is not only well received in Germany, but also in regions where station wagons do not normally play a role, such as Asia. While you can order the CLA Shooting Brake and its four-door coupé brother, the CLA, as a 250cc in Germany and Europe, Daimler decided to offer the models in China as a 260cc. The number six is ​​a more lucky number in China than five. And one CLA 260 Shooting Brake, which has been modified by its owner and is doing its rounds in China, we would like to introduce you to today.

Cool combination with depth!

As soon as you see the white CLA, it becomes clear that this is not a production model. For example, were chic BBS-LM rims raised in 19-inch format with a Y-spoke look and a silver finish. 9 × 19 inch ET38 are installed at the front, while 10 × 19 inch rims with ET40 are attached to the rear axle.

In order to push the handsome boy a little closer to the asphalt, the owner decided to buy a Airride chassis (AccuAir R9). This was done by the rear ones Wheel arches pulled, otherwise it would not be possible to lay the Benz so low on the road. Not to be forgotten is the realignment of the Camber into the negative, the so-called Camber-Tuning, which was also carried out. It is not as pronounced as with others from the CDM scenebut still visible.

Various stickers on the rear side windows round off the appearance of the CLA a little. Underneath there is also a sticker with the inscription "BBS-Club", which is why we suspect that the CLA tuner deliberately opted for rims from the BBS brand.

The interior has largely remained standard!

Except for the steering for the Airride chassis, the interior remained completely untouched. This means that all the comfort and safety features that make driving more pleasant have been retained.

2-liter four-cylinder turbo provides propulsion!

The lifestyle truck from Stuttgart is owned by one Turbo petrol engine powered with 2-liter displacement, the 224 PS and 350 Newtonmeter maximum torque generated. Power is transmitted to all four wheels via a seven-speed automatic transmission (7G-Tronic). Equipped in this way, the Shooting Brake sprints from standstill to country road speed in around 6,8 seconds, and the top speed only ends at 245 kilometers per hour. This allows you to clear the left lane in Germany, and in China, where strict speed limits apply, you have to be careful not to be too fast all the time.
