The Week That Was: Peugeot 2008, Mercedes CLA 200, Lexus ES… And Moke?

Peugeot’s 2008 compact SUV arrived in Australia this week, priced from a very sharp $21,990 plus on-roads.

The 2008 offers a choice of two petrol engines and one diesel, with the diesel powering the range-topping ‘Outdoor’ manual, priced at $31,990 plus on-roads.

TMR tested all three 2008 model variants - Outdoor, Allure and Active - and all three drivetrain options; check out our review.

The Mercedes-Benz CLA sedan is now on sale in Australia, initially available in CLA 200 and CLA 45 AMG trim.

A CLA 250 Sport model along with the CLA 200 diesel will join the range next year, with the CLA 250 Sport priced from $63,400 plus on-roads.

We drove the CLA 200. It's the world's most aerodynamic production car; it's also a super drive with typical Mercedes-Benz quality at under $50k.

We also drove the CLA 45 AMG, which has got enough power and grip to make your nose bleed.
