The 2021 Mercedes-Benz CLS is a compelling luxury sedan that blends elegant styling and performance. This midsize four-door coupe is part of the third generation that debuted in 2019. The 2021 model is powered by a 362-horsepower turbocharged inline-six coupled with a mild hybrid system, which pairs with a smooth, responsive nine-speed automatic transmission. Available in CLS 450 and AMG CLS 53 trims, both models come with standard rear-wheel drive, but 4MATIC all-wheel drive is optional. Major features include a 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster and another 12.3-inch touchscreen for infotainment, both running Mercedes-Benz’s user-friendly MBUX operating system, which supports Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Key safety features include standard blind-spot monitoring and optional active safety tech via the Driver Assistance package. This luxury vehicle saw minor tweaks for the 2021 model year with the addition of the Mercedes' latest steering wheel design.
