Car B
Mercedes-Benz CLS 520
The Mercedes-Benz CLS 520 is a premium 5-seater that blends strong performance (0–100 km/h in 5.0 s) with a useful 520‑liter trunk for road trips and growing families. Less ideal for city-focused efficiency due to its petrol powertrain and performance bias.

Pros & cons
Mercedes-Benz C-Class Coupe
- Explosive acceleration (0–100 km/h in 4.0 s) and strong 422 hp output
- Usable 4-seat layout with a 450 L trunk for weekend bags and road trips
- 8.5 L/100 km combined consumption is efficient for its class given the performance
- Good value in its segment for buyers prioritizing speed and everyday usability
- Two-door coupe body limits rear-seat access and overall family flexibility
- Less suited to cargo-heavy use despite the 450 L trunk
- Petrol consumption may not satisfy efficiency-first or high-mileage drivers
- Not the best fit for harsh winter driving
Mercedes-Benz CLS 520

- Seats five with a 520 L trunk, fitting family travel and luggage.
