What exactly are the differences from the Mercedes CLA-Class Sedan and Coupe vs. Mercedes A-Class Hatch. Both have the same design, front ends & side profiles are nearly identical. Unfortunately the U.S. is not getting the A-Class hatch, seems to be a Europe only vehicle.

The CLA is a 4 door sedan. There are no coupe of hatchback versions, at least not yet. The A-Class is basically the hatchback version of the CLA, but is only available in Europe like you said. The CLA is for North American release. I don't believe Europe will get it.

Here are some images. To me, they look alike except for one being hatch, and the other a sedan. The interior of the CLA and A Class look practically the same.

If the CLA becomes succesful I wouldn't be surprised if the A class comes to America.

the interior of the A class and CLA look completely identical. I wonder what the real difference might be? Is the length of both vehicles the same?
