Mercedes new electric CLA goes on sale this summer at a price of around €50,000, far more than Chinese competitors, and will test the strategy of going more upmarket in the battle for buyers.
The momentum behind EV sales in Europe has dropped amid mixed messages from governments and industry, leaving the market wide open for Chinese manufacturers.
Styling is inspired by the brand's competition cars.
