TCC’s Bottom Line
The redesigned 2022 BMW 2-Series coupe offers more style and more fun than its four-door Gran Coupe counterpart. The 2022 Mercedes-Benz A220 gives shoppers a taste of luxury in a small sedan package. The 2022 Mercedes-Benz CLA-Class prioritizes style above rationality, and that’s just fine with us.
