Merc CLA 45 AMG unveiled on PS4

Mercedes has given its new Mercedes CLA45 AMG an early reveal in digital form, ahead of the hot new saloon’s official debut at the New York motor show next month.

This sole image of the CLA45 AMG was revealed by Mercedes to promote its involvement in the new DriveClub racing game franchise on the upcoming PlayStation 4 gaming console.

Mercedes has officially confirmed the CLA45 AMG will use the same running gear as the A45 AMG hatchback, which was recently shown ahead of its Geneva motor show reveal later this month.

Power will come from a turbocharged 2.0-litre four-cylinder engine with 355bhp. All four wheels will be driven through a seven-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission.
