Used Mercedes-Benz CLS Cars and Second Hand CLS's for sale

The CLS was launched in 2004, based on the E-Class Mercedes, which was designed to be a practical executive vehicle. The styling of the CLS is similar in style to a coupe, due to its sleek sloping roof. This does reduce room in the back, allowing for only two rear seats, but since it has four doors it can serve as a comfortable and practical car for a small family.

The first CLS generation was available at a basic level with a 5.0L engine and a high-end AMG version with a supercharged 5.5L V8 engine in 2004. In 2006 these engines evolved into 5.5L and 6.L V8 respectively. To complement the sporty engine, the AMG has sports seats, alloys and wider wheels than the standard CLS.

Mercedes-Benz CLS cars provide all of Mercedes' cutting-edge safety features, some as standard and others as optional additions. One optional extra includes its pre-crash system which predicts an impending crash and takes measures to help prevent injury, such as tightening seatbelts and adjusting seats. Air-suspension technology is another hi-tech feature on the CLS that allows the suspension to be adjusted to three different settings according to the road type allowing for a more comfortable drive. Other standard features include heated auto-dimming mirrors, rain-sensing wipers and automatic climate control, which can sense and adjust the temperature and humidity in the car.

Mercedes-Benz CLS sales were successful enough for a second generation to be introduced from 2010, with a more aggressive, sporty design. A nearly new Mercedes-Benz CLS would make an ideal used car for anybody looking for a second-hand vehicle with modern technology.

It is clear when looking at the sleek and aggressive styling of the CLS that this car was built for a thrilling drive but, due to Mercedes' ever-advancing technology, this can be driven to its full potential and still be safe, comfortable and luxurious. The beauty of this car is not only in its looks but also in its technology.
