Mercedes-Benz CLS450 Performance Overview
Positioned as the six-cylinder, coupe-roof midsize entry in the modern CLS range, the CLS450 is represented here by 4 verified tests spanning 2019 to 2019. All recorded results fall within the C257 generation, where the model used Mercedes-Benz’s M256 3.0-liter turbocharged inline-six with a 48-volt mild-hybrid system, rated at 362 hp and paired with 4MATIC all-wheel drive. In this dataset, the CLS450’s performance window is narrow but clearly defined, with 0-60 runs ranging from 4.9 to 4.4 seconds and quarter-mile times averaging 13.18 seconds at 105.9 mph.
Chronologically, the model’s benchmark arrived immediately: the 2019 AMG Line 4MATIC Sedan set the quickest recorded 0-60 at 4.4 seconds, while another test of the same trim returned 4.5 seconds. Additional independent runs logged 4.8 and 4.9 seconds, showing the spread within the single model year covered here. The quickest quarter-mile pass was 13.0 seconds at 107 mph, again from the 2019 AMG Line 4MATIC Sedan.
