The Mercedes-Benz You Can Actually Afford After Graduation

Graduation season is upon us which means those late night cramming sessions for UCI students are over, and it’s time to prepare for the real world. And what better way to journey into a new chapter in life than with a stylish new car like the 2018 Mercedes-Benz CLA to get you there! Chances are you’re probably thinking you can’t afford to buy a new car, especially a luxury car. But did you know that the 2018 CLA Coupe is one of the most affordable Mercedes-Benz models you can buy? In fact, for about the same price as a non-luxury car, you can get all the alluring qualities of a three-pointed star!

Graduates Will Love These 2018 CLA Features

Aside from being one of the most affordable Mercedes-Benz on the market, this 4-door coupe also comes with an abundance of features we think you’ll absolutely love.

Coupe For 5

We can agree you can probably use a break after being nose deep in textbooks for the last quarter, and taking a road trip sounds like the perfect way to reset and refresh this summer.  With the sleek profile of a coupe and a spacious interior for five, the CLA will make even the longest trips the most accommodating.  Whether you’re looking for a luxury sedan or luxury coupe, the 2018 Mercedes-Benz CLA Coupe will give you the best of both worlds.

8-inch Color Display

Featuring a large 8.0-inch color display and a central controller on the console, the CLA gives you convenient control of audio, video, hands-free calling, and optional navigation functions. Many features can also be accessed via the integrated steering-wheel controls. The freestanding display combines a big viewing area with a sleek design, with no need for a bulky visor.

Hands-free Bluetooth® Interface

Now that you’re leaving mom’s nest, you’ll probably be bombarded with calls from mom and dad. With the standard Hands-free Bluetooth® interface, you’ll be able to Place and answer calls, and even access select phonebooks without taking your hands off the steering wheel.

USB Audi Port

The 2018 CLA also comes standard with two USB ports to keep your phone charged and allow for plug-and-play enjoyment from your iPod® or other MP3 players.

In-car WiFi hotspot

No need to leave the Internet at home, or to worry about your cell-phone plan’s data usage rates with the optional in-car WiFi. Your CLA can be a rolling 4G LTE WiFi hotspot, with a secure, high-speed connection that powers such features as the search tools of Mercedes-Benz mbrace® and the power of the Internet in your dashboard. Your passengers can sign in as well, with as many as eight external wireless devices at a time, helping keep everyone connected on the go.

Apple CarPlay™

The available Apple CarPlay™ brings its own interface and apps to your Mercedes-Benz. Integrating with your car’s in-dash color screen, a central controller and steering-wheel controls, Apple CarPlay lets you enjoy a variety of apps via an interface that looks and works like your iPhone®. That’s because it links your iPhone and Siri® to your car, so you can make calls, hear or dictate text messages, navigate to a destination, stream music, podcasts and audiobooks from a variety of sources, and more.
