Ravishing, runway-ready style. A pair of potent powertrain options. And a list of creature comforts so long, it'd likely take us several blog posts to cover them all. These are but a few of the many winning qualities that comprise our compact luxury sedan, the 2016 Mercedes-Benz CLA-Class.

So, with that in mind, we'd like to now link the following video. Tag along with Autotrader reviewer, Jabari Jones, as he reveals the top five traits of the incredible CLA-Class:

Loaded with luxuries, the allure of the entry-level CLA250 trim is altogether undeniable.

"Burgers, fries and tasty salads. The food truck “Buzina” brings fine food to the streets of São Paulo. In the beginning, the investment in the vehicle represented a great financial risk for the two founders Márcio Silva and Jorge Gonzalez. But now the food truck based on the Sprinter is one of the meeting places for everyone who loves good food. A truly Brazilian success story."

"On the horizon the heavenly blue melts into the silvery glitter of the sea, the light is soft, the air gentle and the scent of lavender, rock roses, thyme, rosemary and Mediterranean pines lingers everywhere. The perfect landscape in which to discover a classic Mercedes-Benz car sparkling in chrome."

"Xiao Li is one of China’s most promising design talents and her involvement in the 'Mercedes-Benz International Designer Exchange Program' marks an exciting time for Mercedes-Benz and the London Fashion Week catwalk schedule. With an unmissable event on the international fashion calendar, Xiao Li had the honour of closing London Fashion Week this season, an accolade which comes after winning the Mercedes-Benz China Designer Award 2015."

What doesn't kill us makes us stronger. The challenges we face in life teach us important lessons about perseverance, starting from the day we're born. The challenges we face as children shape who we become as adults, and Mercedes-Benz wants to see which ones shaped you.

"The Mercedes-Benz Cars division, comprising the Mercedes-Benz brand with the sub-brands Mercedes-AMG, Mercedes-Maybach and Mercedes me and the smart brand, once again accelerated along its path of profitable growth in 2015 and achieved its targeted return on sales in the ongoing business in 2015. Unit sales increased for the sixth consecutive year and passed the two-million mark for the first time with 2,001,400 vehicles sold (+16%)."

Typically, the full-size sedan is just a larger, more amply-equipped version of the brand's smaller cars, but the S-Class is so distinctively styled, it's really more of a distant relative than a sibling to its lineup mates. Even the base S550 is bathed in luxurious convenience, safety and entertainment features, some nearly unheard of in the mainstream marketplace.
