Is the Mercedes-Benz CLA a pure import?

All vehicles in the Mercedes-Benz GLA category are pure imports. Here is some extended information about imported cars: 1. Imported cars refer to complete vehicles that are manufactured and assembled abroad. Before entering the Chinese market for sale, these vehicles must undergo necessary testing and comply with Chinese regulations as required by relevant regulatory authorities. Only after obtaining sales approval in China and clearing customs by paying tariffs can they be legally sold as imported vehicles. 2. However, imported cars are expensive due to tariffs, import quotas, and production limitations from manufacturers. This generally makes them much more expensive than their domestically produced counterparts. Additionally, the configurations do not increase significantly; on the contrary, many original imported features may not be suitable or even usable in China.
