Engineers weren't able to completely disguise the front end because covering the fascia's corner intakes would prevent air from cooling the engine. The egg crate grille is most likely something temporary. The production model would feature horizontal bars across this area. The headlights point diagonally into the center of the vehicle, which creates an effect like furrowed brows. The CLA 45 will use a 2.0L turbo 4-cylinder with over 400HP. It will debut in 2019, but the AMG versions might not be available at launch.
