Factory specifications, fluid capacities, torque values, EPA fuel economy and the federal safety record for the 2015 CLA250.
The 2015 Mercedes CLA250 is characterized in this reference by a 6.0-quart engine oil capacity and approved viscosity options spanning 0W-30, 5W-30, and 0W-40. These values represent the complete set of confirmed fluid-service specifications for the model year. When researchers assess this variant’s place in the model’s reliability history, they must note that no supplementary mechanical or durability data accompanies those figures here. Consequently, the 6.0-quart fill and the prescribed viscosity range stand as the only verified benchmarks available for 2015 CLA250 maintenance.
