The 2012-2015 Mercedes-Benz CLC-Class, based on the W204 platform, was a compact executive car that represented a shift in Mercedes' strategy towards offering a more youthful and sporty alternative within the compact executive segment. While technically a facelift of the previous C-Class (W204), the CLC-Class was marketed as a distinct model with unique styling and design elements. Its exterior featured a more aggressive front fascia with redesigned headlights, a prominent grille, and a sportier bumper. The rear end incorporated a new taillight design and a revised diffuser.

Inside, the CLC-Class was equipped with a more driver-focused cockpit, featuring a three-spoke steering wheel, a revised instrument cluster, and a standard 5.8-inch infotainment display. The interior also benefited from higher-quality materials and a more refined overall aesthetic. Mechanically, the CLC-Class carried over the same engine options as its C-Class predecessor, including a range of gasoline and diesel engines. The CLC-Class offered a choice of manual and automatic transmissions, as well as rear-wheel drive and 4MATIC all-wheel drive systems. While the CLC-Class provided a sporty driving experience, it also offered a comfortable and refined ride, making it a suitable choice for both everyday driving and longer journeys.
