    I drove the Mercedes last December, so I am pretty sure it was a 2025 model. Aesthetics aside, my criticism is of the build itself. On the other hand, the BMW i4 and iX (also 2025 models) feel solid.

      Which model Mercedes did you drive? I’ve heard good things about the iX, but haven’t driven it. Unfortunately I don’t have money for a car. But if I did, I’d be tempted to get a new CLA.
