The 2016 Mercedes-Benz CLA (C117) 220d 177 is a front-drive turbodiesel saloon of 1,525 kg with 174 bhp, which works out at 114 bhp per tonne. Front drive caps what it can put down off the line — 60 ft takes 2.47 s — so most of what it has to give arrives once it is already moving. Against the 14,946 cars in the set it is the 4,527th quickest to 60 mph, and the 576th quickest of the 1380 Mercedes-Benzs here. Its 91.7 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 2 of 2 published acceleration figures for this car.
