I actually like the CLA's circular vents its a more up to date look and trendy although it gives me the impression sometimes that they are speakers. But compare to the flat and boring c-class , the interior needs an update thats for sure.If I were to be nitpicky I don't really like the circular vents lol. I prefer the interior design of the C-Class.

I can't tell you much about build quality from these three brands but when it comes to design and materials used, these days Mercedes is on top the rest IMO. BMW interiors are nice but not as nice as Mercedes.How would you guys rank the interiors between BMW, Audi, and Mercedes? Is there a clear winner in terms of build quality?
I like the sporty and sophisticated look of the CLA interior compared to the C Class which is more subtle and boring.If I were to be nitpicky I don't really like the circular vents lol. I prefer the interior design of the C-Class.

I agree, it looks like someone placed an iPad their, even BMW is like this.Looking at the interior if i have to absolutely point out one thing its gonna have to be the Screen how it is attach like that. I'm sure some will say they like it for being creative and different from the rest but maybe it'll take sometime getting use to.
One of the bigger issues that I think everyone has a concern for is the lack of headroom the CLA has.
That would be an odd addition, considering the infotainment system is Mercedes focused. It's not like an ipad, which would have apps for different purposes.Does anyone know if it's removable? If it's not, I don't understand why they would do it, cause IMO having the infotainment system installed like in the C-Class or E-Class is the way to go.
I can quite confirm on this yet but the BMW screens look as though if they are able to pop up and down to be hidden. Gives you the freedom have the screen out or in at any given time. I doubt you would be able to remove it, then it will just be prone to getting lost. Now that would be a pain.I agree, it looks like someone placed an iPad their, even BMW is like this.
