Mercedes-AMG CLA 45 S Shooting brake

The Mercedes-AMG CLA 45 S Shooting brake reaches 60 mph in 3.61 s (100 km/h in 3.83 s) and covers a standing quarter mile in 12.16 s, tripping the lights at 112.2 mph. It clears the first 60 ft in 1.84 s and the eighth mile in 7.78 s, reaching 100 mph in 9.31 s.

Simulated, not measured — computed from published kerb mass, rated power, gearing and drivetrain, then fitted to this car’s own published acceleration figures. Dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.

About the CLA 45 S Shooting brake

The 2020 Mercedes-AMG CLA 45 S Shooting brake is an all-wheel-drive turbocharged estate of 1,668 kg with 416 bhp, which works out at 249 bhp per tonne. All-wheel drive is worth most in the first car length: it covers 60 ft in 1.84 s, which is where a four-wheel-drive car takes its margin out of a rear-drive one with the same power. Against the 14,946 cars in the set it is the 730th quickest to 60 mph, inside the fastest five per cent, and the 20th quickest of the 63 Mercedes-AMGs here. Its 112.2 mph trap speed sits about where its 0-60 puts it, so it launches and pulls in roughly equal measure. The simulation is trimmed to 10 of 10 published acceleration figures for this car.

Questions

What is the Mercedes-AMG CLA 45 S Shooting brake 0-60 time?
The Mercedes-AMG CLA 45 S Shooting brake reaches 60 mph in 3.61 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 730th quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the Mercedes-AMG CLA 45 S Shooting brake quarter mile time?
12.16 s at 112.2 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 7.78 s and clears the first 60 ft in 1.84 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the Mercedes-AMG CLA 45 S Shooting brake have?
416 bhp and 1,668 kg, which is 249 bhp per tonne. It is all-wheel-drive, turbocharged, with 7 gears and a quoted top speed of 270 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the Mercedes-AMG CLA 45 S Shooting brake?
Closest here on pace: Alpina B3 S Biturbo Touring Allrad F31 (3.58 s), Alpina B3 Biturbo Allrad Touring (3.67 s), Alpina B3 Biturbo Touring (3.83 s). Each one can be raced against the Mercedes-AMG CLA 45 S Shooting brake in the panel at the top of this page. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
Are these real measured times?
No. Every figure on this page is produced by a physics simulation, not by a stopwatch at a drag strip. The Mercedes-AMG CLA 45 S Shooting brake is modelled from its published kerb mass, rated power, drivetrain and gearing, then trimmed until it reproduces 10 of its 10 published acceleration figures. Conditions are the same for every car in the set: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.

Figures regenerated 2026-10-12. Every number on this page is computed by the simulator at build time, so the page and the app can never disagree.
