A sleek electric sedan with serious reach

Drive a CLA-Class

If you're browsing Mercedes-Benz rental options, the CLA-Class is the brand's entry-level sedan — now reinvented as the first model on its all-new MMA platform. It keeps the low, coupe-like silhouette that made the CLA stand out, and the 2026 model goes fully electric.

You book your CLA-Class car rental from a local vehicle owner on the Turo car rental marketplace. Listings include earlier gas-powered generations and the new electric model, and pickup and delivery options vary by listing.

Efficient electric power, built for distance

The 2026 CLA 250+ pairs a rear-mounted motor with a two-speed electric drive unit for 268 hp and 247 lb-ft of torque. Its 85 kWh battery delivers an EPA-estimated 374 miles of range — enough to cover serious ground between charges. Want more punch? The CLA 350 4MATIC adds a second motor for 349 hp and 0–60 mph in 4.8 sec.

Fast charging on an 800-volt system

The CLA-Class charges fast, adding about 202 miles in roughly 10 minutes at a compatible DC fast charger. That speed comes from its 800-volt architecture, which lets the sedan accept up to 320 kW at peak. Your results depend on the charger you plug into, so pick the quickest station on your route.

For your trip, that turns a charging stop into a quick break. Plug in, grab a coffee, and stretch your legs — then head back out with enough range for a few more hours of driving. It's a big plus on a road trip, when every minute at the charger is a minute you'd rather spend at your destination.

Intelligent cabin tech with MB.OS

The CLA-Class runs MB.OS with the latest generation of MBUX, so the cabin feels as smart as the sedan looks. AI-enhanced conversational voice commands let you ask for what you need in everyday language instead of memorizing set phrases. Predictive personalization learns your preferences over time and brings up the settings you're likely to want next.

For a rental, that means less time hunting through menus and more time enjoying the drive. Talk to the car the way you'd talk to a passenger, and let the system handle the rest. Even if you've never used MBUX before, the conversational approach makes it easy to settle in within your first few miles.

Stand out with a CLA-Class

The CLA-Class fits trips where you want polish and range in one package. It's a sharp pick for stylish city driving, business trips, and long weekend drives — 374 miles of range covers a lot of ground. It's also a low-pressure way to try an EV before you buy, and you can compare more electric vehicle rentals on Turo.

Top CLA-Class features

Design lineage

Three things set the CLA-Class apart: its design lineage, a choice of drivetrains, and five-seat everyday practicality.

The CLA-Class started life as the brand's four-door coupe, and that heritage still shapes its look. For 2026, it becomes a true sedan, with a larger greenhouse — the glass area around the cabin — and a roomier interior. The sloping roofline stays, so you still get the low, sleek profile that defined earlier generations.

What this means for you: more light and space inside, with the same sporty stance outside. If your listing is an earlier model, you'll get the original four-door coupe take on the design. Either way, you're driving a sedan that looks sharp parked at the curb and feels easy to live with on the road.

Choice of drivetrains

The 2026 CLA-Class offers two electric drivetrains, and Turo listings add gas options to the mix. The CLA 250+ uses a single rear motor for rear-wheel drive and the longest range. The dual-motor CLA 350 4MATIC brings all-wheel drive, 349 hp, 380 lb-ft of torque, and an EPA-estimated 312 miles of range.

Both electric versions come in standard, Exclusive, and Pinnacle trims. Earlier-generation gas CLA 250 sedans on Turo deliver 221 hp and 30 mpg combined. Match the drivetrain to your trip — maximum range for a long drive, extra power for a spirited weekend, or familiar fill-ups for a quick getaway.

Five-seat everyday practicality

The CLA-Class seats five, so it handles everyday errands, airport runs, and dinners out with friends. The gas sedan's trunk holds 11.6 cubic feet, according to Edmunds. That's a practical space for weekend bags and grocery runs.

On longer drives, keep in mind that the sloping roofline trims some rear headroom, so the back seat works best for adults on shorter trips. Planning a longer haul with a full car? Put the tallest passengers up front, or check the tips below for roomier options from the same brand.

Top tips and things to know before renting a CLA-Class

Get to know your CLA-Class

A little prep goes a long way with the CLA-Class, since listings on Turo span gas and electric generations. Here's what to check before you book and drive.

Start by checking whether your listing is electric or gas — the model year tells you which CLA-Class you're getting. The 2026 model is electric, while earlier generations run on gas. Before you drive off, take a few minutes to learn the MBUX screens so you're not hunting through menus in traffic.

Need more room? A Mercedes-Benz G-Wagon rental gives you SUV space for passengers and luggage, while a Mercedes-Benz Sprinter rental fits bigger groups.

CLA-Class driving tips

If you're driving the electric CLA-Class, plan your fast-charging stops before you set out. Check the charge level at pickup, and use DC fast chargers when you can to make the most of the sedan's 320 kW charging capability. Gas versions take premium gas, so factor that into your trip budget.

How much does it cost to rent a CLA-Class?

The cost to rent a CLA-Class on Turo depends on the model year, location, trip length, extras, and delivery. Recent listings show prices of roughly $53–$102 per day. Some listings offer discounts on trips of seven, 14, or 30 days or more.

Weighing a three-day trip against a full week? Compare the weekly price, since a seven-day booking can unlock a discount a shorter trip won't. Need a car for a month or longer? Browse long-term car rental options on Turo.

  1. * Any personal insurance you may have that covers damage to the host’s vehicle would kick in before your protection plan, except in limited situations for trips booked in Maryland, but this protects your own wallet. In the US, liability insurance is provided under a policy issued to Turo by Travelers Excess and Surplus Lines Company. Terms, conditions, and exclusions apply. The policy does not provide coverage for damage to a host’s vehicle.

  2. For questions or information about the third party liability insurance for trips in the US, consumers in Maryland and the licensed states listed here may contact Turo Insurance Agency at (415) 508-0283 or claims@turo.agency. For questions about how damage to a host’s vehicle is handled, visit the Turo Support site. When a trip is booked in the state of Washington, physical damage to the host’s vehicle is covered by insurance purchased by Turo, but the Turo insurance does not change the contractual responsibilities of hosts or guests with respect to physical damage to a host’s vehicle.
