Here"s a sign of the times: Mercedes has revealed the new CLA coupe-saloon-based-on-the-A-Class-thingy, and not said a single word about what sort of engines it"s slotted in the CLS-esque nose, or if it"ll get a manual gearbox, or how fast it"ll go from nought-to-sixty. Nope, this is a tech presentation. A microchip tour de force. Think less motor show" and more Apple keynote." So, the headlines. The new CLA, which is no longer a dumpy little object by virtue of standing 48mm longer, 53mm wider and 2mm lower than before, has an even cleverer version of the MBUX" infotainment centre than the A-Class hatchback with which the car shares its architecture.
