Clean lines, contrast stitching, Alcantara suede, supple leather … it all sounds a lot like a luxe handbag, doesn’t it?
Just like that high-end purse you didn’t know you needed, s ios the Mercedes-Benz Lifestyle Coupe, the 2020 CLA 250. The design refresh and bold new colors, like this Damin Blue, which I adore, makes you feel a little extra. Mercedes-Benz calls this sedan with four doors and seating for five a coupe. And while the term ‘coupe’ is usually reserved for sleek-lined two-door cars, this sedan has the sexy sloped roofline of a coupe, so we’ll accept the terminology here simply because we love the look and drive in this sleek Mercedes-Benz.
The Interior is Loaded with Beautiful Surfaces
The black leather and Alcantara (a soft, suede-like microfiber) with red contrast stitching throughout the interior are what reminded me of some of my favorite luxury handbags – an interior beauty and function that matches the high-end design of the exterior.
The ambient lighting shows off the European design of the interior finishes just perfectly with light inlaid on the door handles and headrests, and all along the front dashboard and even at your feet all throughout the car.
Aluminum finish door handles, speakers and steering wheel spokes have a look of shine and maybe a touch of glitter. The 2020 Mercedes-Benz CLA 250 just shines.
