For a volvo this is very nice, I like how they continued to keep the interior and exterior design unique to their brand and not like what other car makers offer.

But at the end of the day, it's a Volvo and the CLA is a Mercedes, saying you own a Mercedes sounds MUCH better than saying you own a Volvo. With a lot of CLA buyers to be first time MB owners, a good number of them are buying just to say "i own a MERCEDES!!!"

The V40 kind of looks like a hatchback/wagon.

Very different style vs the CLA.

Yea it's more so a direct A-Class competitor, but depending where you live, if the A-Class isn't available, then this can be compared to the CLA to some extent.
