Next-gen Mercedes-Benz CLA teased in camo

Mercedes-Benz has brought its next-generation CLA sedan to the Fashion and Photography Festival in Hyères, France. The whole car is still clad in camouflage, because it isn’t debuting before 2025.

This is the fourth time in a row that Mercedes becomes an official partner of the Hyères Festival. The pre-production vehicle it exhibited there served as a backdrop for the fashion models to pose against.

The first CLA prototype was spotted on the streets as early as September 2023. It is believed to be fully electric with a rumored range of 750 kilometers (466 miles) per charge. If true, it would be a new record for Mercedes-Benz. The exterior also looks redesigned from the ground up, but it remains up to speculation how much may change before production.

All technical specifications are being kept secret until 2025.
