Mercedes twin baby AMGs are thrashed about by Auto Express
Tested on both open road and track conditions, the 2.0liter 355 horse four cyl really shows its worth ( the most powerful engine per litre in ANY production car!!)

Highlights:

Adaptive 4 wheel drive provides TONS of grip
Mighty brakes and pin sharp steering
Immense power, immensely useable
Not fans of the tranny

check it out

very nice find!

with so much power coming out of these 4 cylinder engines, i really hope that reliability isn't compromised. I want to be able to drive my CLA 45 AMG, if i get one, just about anywhere I wish for how long I want to without worry.

That was one of my concern just for how long will the engine stay in tact without issues and serious maintenance.

 

[WildBenza]

I have to admit the amount of power that this 2 Liter engine makes is impressive I am sure may can say the same. I wonder what he didn't like about the transmission.

I am sure all the internals in the CLA 45 AMG are top quality and all forged.

yea same, AMG is known for bomb-proof engines

It better be bomb proof. All that power in 2.0L 4 cylinder means lots of stress on the internals.
