The CLS-Class embodies the luxurious spirit of the Mercedes-Benz name and combines it with creative utility. This ultimate culmination of excellence leads to what Mercedes-Benz calls a 4-door coupe. It has the stylish body styling of a coupe with a sporty stance, yet it still has 4 doors to maximize convenience and comfort. For this reason, the CLS is a staple of the Mercedes-Benz brand name, bridging the gap between two segments. If you are looking for a 2016 Mercedes-Benz CLS-Class in Scottsdale AZ, then you are in luck because Mercedes-Benz of Scottsdale has the best selection in the area.
The CLS can be though of as a mix between the CLA-Class and the S-Class. It is compact, sporty, and stylish, but it is also spacious, elegant, and sophisticated. Available in three distinguished trims, the CLS ranges from 329 horsepower with a 3.0-liter biturbo V6 to 577 horsepower, made with a 5.5-liter AMG biturbo V8. All CLS-Class models can be equipped with 4MATIC all-wheel drive and the latest in driver assistance features such as PRE-SAFE PLUS braking and Lane-Keep Assist.
Each trim of 2016 CLS-Class comes with a different engine. The base model CLS400 comes with a 3.0L biturbo V6. The CLS550 is paired with a 4.7L biturbo V8, and the CLS63 S AMG comes with a 5.5L biturbo V8.

New Features
For 2016, the CLS-Class is a carry-over model, but it also features some new upgrades that keep the new model at the front of its segment. One of the most exciting improvements to the CLS is the 9-speed automatic transmission. It was available last year with the AMG models, but it is now a standard feature on the CLS550 and the CLS63 S AMG. To further segregate this model from previous models, Selenite Grey has replaced Palladium Silver as the standard exterior color and the Night Package is now available for the first time on the CLS.
