It looks a little generic but still okay, says ultra tech nerd MKBHD—though he also notes it feels somewhat weird and unusual. The YouTuber admits that you don’t see many CLA EVs in his New Jersey neighbourhood, probably because it costs around $65K and most people prefer a Tesla Model 3 or Model Y.

MKBHD confirms that it does feel premium on the inside, but there are still some things that need fixing. The seats, for example, are comfortable—so far, so good. However, he points out some cost-cutting measures and a few odd electrical issues.

Another strange issue he highlights is the usability of the music controls on the steering wheel, which he describes as a surprising oversight. Indeed, it’s the small usability details that stand out most, rather than the overall sense of luxury.
