Mercedes-Benz CLA.

Environmental check

CLA with EQ Technology.

March 24, 2025 – With the CLA, the pioneer of a new, innovative family of electric vehicles from Mercedes-Benz is going into series production. For the new CLA, Mercedes-Benz Cars has defined quantitative targets for reducing CO₂ emissions in the supply chain for production materials for the first time. The focus here is on materials and components that have high CO₂ emissions during production.

With the life cycle assessment of the CLA 250+ (combined energy consumption: 14.1-12.2 kWh/100 km; combined CO₂ emissions: 0 g/km; CO₂ class: A)* at the start of production, the quantities of CO₂-reduced aluminum and steel, CO₂-reduced battery cells, and recycled plastic used in the new CLA are taken into account. In addition, traction current from renewable energy is used as a basis.
