2026 Mercedes CLA shows off its streamlined body in advance
Redesigned CLA blends some cues from EQE and EQS, but it's a shame for a greenhouse December 12, 2024 15:24 The new-generation 2026 Mercedes CLA has less disguise than ever before. This four-door coupe has a streamlined design but comes with an awkward greenhouse. It will be available with hybrid and electric powertrains as well as front-, rear- and all-wheel drive. The redesigned Mercedes CLA has been a familiar sight for the past 22 months, but the model is finally entering its sprint phase. Now it's being celebrated by taking off its clothes and showing some skin. While both the front and rear ends are heavily camouflaged, the latest prototype has exposed bodywork.

Formula One has confirmed major changes to the 2026 calendar, with the Canadian Grand Prix moved to May to better align with the Miami Grand Prix. Starting this year, the Montreal race will be held on the third or fourth weekend of May, replacing the traditional mid-June date.

In addition, the 2025 Formula 1 season will feature an Oceania-Asia debut, starting in Australia, via China and Japan, and then on to Bahrain and Saudi Arabia in the Middle East. These updates reflect Formula 1’s commitment…
