BMW 2 Series vs. Mercedes-Benz CLA: Which Small Luxury Car Offers More?

The new BMW 2 Series will thrill you with its agile handling and amaze you with its front-line technology. Its balance of sporty dynamics and ride quality make it ideal for your commute in Delano. The new Mercedes-Benz CLA is also fun to drive, but it falls short of the 2 Series' overall excellence. At BMW of Bakersfield, we have a wide selection of 2 Series models in our new inventory, and we happily present the following comparison of these two small luxury cars to help you decide between them.

Performance

Ride and Handling

You'll have a blast driving on winding roads in Taft with the new BMW 2 Series. Its accurate steering, strong brakes keep it poised around turns. Despite its athletic nature, the 2 Series also delivers a pliant ride on its well-tuned suspension. The new Mercedes-Benz CLA also handles nimbly, but its ride can be a bit stiff and unforgiving on imperfect roads.

Standard Power

The new BMW 2 Series comes standard with a muscular turbocharged 255-horsepower four-cylinder engine for easy merging onto highways around Lamont. With its base engine, the 2 Series can rocket from 0 to 60 mph in around 5.1 seconds. The new Mercedes-Benz CLA's standard four-cylinder engine only generates 221 horsepower. It takes 5.6 seconds for it to reach 60 mph from a standstill.

Interior Design

Cabin Comfort

As you'd expect from a BMW vehicle, the 2 Series has a plush interior with a well-built, ergonomically arranged cockpit. Taller rear-seat passengers in Arvin enjoy 34.4 inches of rear legroom in 2 Series Gran Coupe models. The Mercedes-Benz CLA also has an attractive cabin, but it only offers up to 33.9 inches of rear legroom.

Cargo Space

Available in coupe and Gran Coupe body styles, the BMW 2 Series has ample space to stow your luggage or shopping bags. Rosamond drivers will appreciate that the 2 Series Coupe has a 13.8 cubic-foot trunk, while the Gran Coupe offers 12 cubic-feet of cargo space. The Mercedes-Benz CLA has an 11-foot trunk.

Infotainment

The new BMW 2 Series even has a nicer infotainment system, with a 14.9-inch infotainment display that our Shafter, CA customers will love. The Mercedes-Benz CLA's infotainment touchscreen is only 10.25 inches long.
