Mercedes Benz CLS 2018 - If you've spent time inside the latest E-Class, then the interior of the CLS will be very familiar to you. Front and centre is the new widescreen cockpit display – made up of two 12.3in screens, with the central screen given over to infotainment and navigation while the right acts as a virtual instrument cluster. As standard, though, the CLS comes with only one 12.3in screen.There's also a new multi-function steering wheel borrowed from the S-Class, complete with touch-sensitive pads for controlling the COMAND infotainment system.Also new is a third rear seat, meaning you can carry five people in the CLS for the first time. There's no change in luggage capacity, at 520 litres, meaning it should take a couple of suitcases without any trouble.

The new CLS is only available in AMG Line trim right now, but that means you get a good amount of interior gadgets and technology as standard. For example, every CLS will feature a 12.3-inch infotainment screen, an additional 12.3-inch cockpit display, ambient lighting, parking sensors and a reversing camera.

There are three engines to choose from at launch, with most buyers likely to head straight for the entry-level diesel option, the 350d. This is the same engine we recommend in the current CLS, and it produces 282bhp – enough to get the CLS to 62mph from a standing start in 5.7 seconds. Official fuel economy is rated at 50.4mpg, with CO2 emissions of 148g/km.
