2015 Mercedes-Benz CLA Seat Room and Comfort: Cons | ||
Year | Comment | |
The CLA's rear legroom stat, a very low 27.1 inches, suggests that adults won't even fit in back. But this stat under-represents reality. At 5-9, I could just manage to site behind myself. More than the limited amount of room, I minded the highly constricted view out. The coupe-like roof line takes a big cut out of the rear side windows. Unlike in the C-Class, the front seats largely block rear seat passengers' view forward. Suffer from claustrophobia? Best avoid the CLA. But, it's a coupe, so what did you expect? see full Mercedes-Benz CLA review |
