For 2015, the Mercedes-Benz CLS Coupe and CLS Shooting Brake got a new face to match with the automaker’s incremental design iteration, heavily influenced by the S-Class W221 flagship.
On the outside, you get a redesigned front end, a reshaped grille, new LED headlights with an optional Multibeam setup, a new lower bumper with bigger side vents as well as new wheels, slightly adjusted LED taillights and rear bumper, all perfectly combining contemporary luxury with passionate sportiness.

There are no major changes inside as far as design goes, but you do get a new generation of the Comand infotainment system with apps like Weather, GoogleTM Local Search with StreetView and Panoramio as well as an enhanced navigation system. A new pack of services is available for the European market called the “Mercedes connect me” and offers emergency call support, accident, maintenance and breakdown management. On the powertrain sideM the refreshed second-generation CLS comes with a new four-cylinder diesel engine (CLS 220 BlueTEC), a turbocharged V6 gasoline engine (CLS 400) and a new 9-speed automatic transmission that replaces the old 7 G-Tronic seven-speed. Just like its predecessor, the new CLS is available with both rear-wheel-drive and all-wheel-drive depending on engine version, including the CLS 63 AMG models.
