On the design front, the new AMG CLA 45 and AMG GLA 45 features subtle changes to the exterior design. The cars feature a new glossy black paint scheme with yellow detailing. A matte black racing stripe runs through the bonnet, roof and boot. The new models also sport AMG styling kit which includes black grille, AMG badging on the slat and an aggressively designed bumper.

The side profile of the AMG CLA 45 and GLA 45 features AMG graphics above the side skirts and yellow detailing on the front bumper, ORVMs, tyre wall and rear bumper. The GLA 45 comes with a rear spoiler with yellow accent. Both the cars are equipped with 19-inch alloy wheels. Other prominent features of the new AMG models include projector headlamps, LED daytime running lights, quad exhaust, rear diffuser and LED tail lights.

The interior of the AMG CLA 45 and GLA 45 features an infotainment system with Apple CarPlay, Android Auto and MirrorLink. The dashboard gets an all-black theme with red stitches on the side panels and leather seats. The steering wheel is also wrapped in the black leather with red detailing.
