While the 2013 Mercedes-Benz A45 AMG makes its private debut tonight ahead of its public debut tomorrow, Motor Authority is on hand to view it--and the CLA45 AMG. The A45 AMG was revealed by recording artist Usher and Mercedes and AMG executives in Geneva before tomorrow's motor show press days--but the CLA45 AMG was tucked away discreetly in a separate room, sealed off from photography by a checkpoint for cameras and recording devices. Though no photos of tonight's CLA45 AMG reveal were allowed, we talked with officials bullish on the prospects for the new sports sedan, especially in...

Does Mercedes’ Super Bowl Ad Explain Justin Bieber’s Popularity? Video
We tip our hats to Mercedes-Benz, who admittedly had us beyond puzzled with the build up to its Super Bowl XLVII ad. While we certainly don’t mind reviewing footage of Kate Upton, we couldn’t see where she fit into the grand scheme of things - until now. While we can’t say...

We're not immune to the err…charms…of Kate Upton, but at the same time, we can't really figure out how she became famous.

2014 Mercedes-Benz CLA: 2013 Detroit Auto Show

Now, there's a new small Benz coming, and soon--but will the driving wheels make all the difference with the 2014 CLA 250? With the CLA, Mercedes-Benz...
