Well this is not groundbreaking news as the CLA45 AMG was expected for the USA but it is nice to have official confirmation. The 2014 CLA45 AMG will make its debut at the 2013 New York City Auto Show on March 27th. There is an AMG sneak preview night to get a look at the car before the general public. It will be interesting to see what the USA MSRP is considering the CLA250 starts at $29,999 which means the AMG version will likely be in the $40's.
The car will of course have all wheel drive, a 7-speed dual clutch transmission, and a fire breathing M133 turbocharged
354 horsepower direct injected 2.0 liter four-cylinder with 26 pounds of boost from its turbo. Talk about a fun entry level AMG tuning platform. Things are getting very interesting on the boosted front with the Germans.
Audi will fire back with an RS3 sedan, the question becomes if BMW will enter the entry level battleground as well.
