Mercedes-Benz has expanded its upcoming CLA electric line-up in India with the addition of a new CLA 200 ‘Standard Range’ variant. The model will join the CLA 250+ ‘Long Range’ version and is set to launch in India next month, with bookings for both variants now open.
Customers are required to pay Rs 1.5 lakh to reserve the sedan. Deliveries of the CLA 250+ Long Range are expected to begin by the end of April 2026, while the CLA 200 Standard Range will start reaching customers from June 2026. Customers who pre-book the car will also receive a complimentary wall box home charger.
- New CLA 200 Standard Range offers 542km WLTP range
- Fast charging adds up to 320km in 20 minutes on CLA 200
- Tentative prices: Rs 55 lakh (CLA 200) and Rs 59 lakh (CLA 250+)
Standard Range variant offers a lower entry point
Tentative pricing expected to start at Rs 55 lakh
The CLA 200 Standard Range has been introduced following customer feedback seeking an additional variant with a shorter driving range and a potentially lower price point.
Mercedes-Benz said the new variant will have a tentative ex-showroom price of Rs 55 lakh, while the CLA 250+ Long Range is expected to be priced around Rs 59 lakh. Final prices will depend on foreign exchange rates at the time of launch, scheduled for mid-April 2026.
Despite the difference in range, equipment levels between the two variants are largely similar. The CLA 250+ Long Range gets the AMG Line styling package as standard, while the CLA 200 Standard Range features ‘Progressive Line’ styling, along with comfort seats, a multifunction sports leather steering wheel and two trim options.
