Mercedes-Benz prices rise on several models for 2015

Prices for a number of Mercedes-Benz models have risen for 2015, with the A-ClassCLA-Class, GLA-ClassE-Class, S-Class, SLK Convertible and G-Class all affected by the increases.


The manufacturer's list prices for each vehicle have risen only slightly, though, and according to Mercedes-Benz Australia senior manager of public relations, product and corporate communications, David McCarthy, buyers are getting off lightly.

"There's never an ideal time to do it," McCarthy said of the price increases. "We just try and keep it to a minimum. In no case is it more than the inflation rate," he said, "which was last measured at 2.3 per cent in September 2013."

While numerous models see price increases but no additional equipment, the CLA-Class small sedan receives a number of new goodies as part of its price change.

The entry-level CLA200 petrol and diesel models increase in price by $1000 (to $50,900 plus on-road costs), but gain a new larger 8.0-inch media unit, a new wide-angle reverse-view camera, updated steering wheel and instrument cluster, a rear armrest, Collision Prevention Assist+ with auto-braking, and push-button start.

The CLA250 Sport AWD doesn't see any price rise ($64,900 plus costs) but gains new red highlights around the air vents. New 19-inch two-tone alloys are also available.

The flagship CLA45 AMG has risen by $1500 (now $88,400 plus costs), and gains all of the above standard items, as well as a new steering wheel with Nappa Dynamica trim.
