The Mercedes-AMG CLA 45 S 4MATIC+ Final Edition has arrived in South Africa, with only 15 units available for local customers. This limited-edition model combines the precision engineering and aggressive styling AMG is known for, offering an unrivalled performance experience in the four-door coupé segment.

Unmatched Performance

Powered by AMG’s 2.0-litre turbocharged four-cylinder engine—the most powerful four-cylinder engine in series production globally—the CLA 45 S produces 310 kW and 500 Nm of torque. This engine enables the car to sprint from 0 to 100 km/h in just 4.1 seconds, with a top speed limited to 270 km/h. Following the ‘one man, one engine’ principle, each power unit is hand-assembled by a single technician at AMG’s Affalterbach factory.

The eight-speed AMG SPEEDSHIFT DCT-8G dual-clutch transmission delivers lightning-fast gear changes, while the AMG Performance 4MATIC+ all-wheel drive system with AMG TORQUE CONTROL distributes power wheel-by-wheel for optimal traction—or for spectacular drift capability.

Striking Exterior Details

Each Final Edition comes in exclusive Night Black with bold edition-specific features. Large “45 S” decals adorn the doors, complemented by AMG logos in yellow on the mirrors. The car rides on 19-inch AMG forged wheels in a matte black cross-spoke design, featuring AMG-branded hub covers and gloss black brake calipers. Other bespoke touches include silver chrome fuel-filler caps with black AMG lettering and optional AMG Night Packages I and II for high-gloss black trim and chrome-free exterior detailing.

Driver-Focused Interior

Inside, the CLA 45 S Final Edition exudes a sporty, race-inspired character. AMG Performance seats combine ARTICO leather and MICROCUT microfibre, accented with yellow topstitching across seats, doors, and the instrument panel. The front headrests are embroidered with “45 S” emblems, while the centre console bears a “45 S Final Edition” badge. Nappa leather AMG Performance steering wheel, aluminium trim with AMG patterns, illuminated door sills, and custom floor mats with yellow stitching complete the high-performance interior package.

Limited Availability and Pricing

The Mercedes-AMG CLA 45 S 4MATIC+ Final Edition is strictly limited to 15 units in South Africa. Pricing is set at R1 721 234, including VAT and a 5-year / 100 000 km service and maintenance plan, ensuring both exclusivity and peace of mind for owners.

This Final Edition CLA 45 S reinforces Mercedes-AMG’s reputation for combining high-octane performance, precision engineering, and bespoke design, offering enthusiasts a unique opportunity to own a true collector’s car in the compact coupé segment.
