Mercedes-Benz All-Electric CLA 260 L Launched

[New Model Launch] The Mercedes-Benz all-electric CLA 260 L has officially launched, starting at RMB 229,000.

Core Development: Entry-Level Variant Lowers the Barrier to Premium EVs

Priced from RMB 229,000, the CLA 260 L joins the all-electric CLA family, carrying forward the design language of the CLA 300 L, featuring a closed front fascia, a grille with 142 illuminated stars, and the same fastback coupe silhouette. It measures 4,763/1,836/1,471 mm (length/width/height) with a wheelbase of 2,830 mm.

Key Specifications: Positioned as a Compact All-Electric Sedan

Compared to the previous CLA 300 L, which started at RMB 249,000, the 260 L further lowers the price threshold. With a curb weight of 2,005 kg, it omits the passenger-side entertainment screen to focus on delivering essential premium features.

Strategic Rationale: Accelerating Coverage of the EV Portfolio

As Mercedes-Benz simultaneously unveils the GLC EV (with over 700 km of range) at the 2026 Beijing Auto Show, the addition of this entry-level CLA variant aims to broaden the brand’s reach in the RMB 200,000–250,000 all-electric market segment.
