The aggressive lines of the all-new 2014 CLA aren't
merely for show, however -- they also help create aerodynamics worthy of a
supercar. Likewise, alluring form and superior function come together in the
sculpted headlamps, available in Bi-Xenon with integrated LED Daytime Running
Lights, and standard LED tail lamps.
An even greater degree of visual ferocity
can be achieved with the available Sport Package, with chiseled sport body
styling that includes a larger front apron with massive air inlets, as well as
flared side skirts and a sleek rear diffuser. The Sport Package also includes
the diamond-pattern version of the front sport grille -- boasting brilliant,
silver-tipped studs instead of black -- not to mention 18-inch twin 5-spoke
alloy wheels and sport front brakes with perforated rotors.
