-As part of a rash of updates, changes, and enhancements across its lineup for 2016, Mercedes-Benz is tossing a few new options at its compact CLA-class sedan and GLA-class crossover. The CLA250 will be available in an Edition: Orange special-edition model, while both regular CLA250s and GLA250s get new Dynamic Select drive modes and a few new options.

Starting with the 2016 CLA, Mercedes has introduced a new dark-trim “Night package,” new contrast-stitching options for the base black or grey MB Tex psued0-leather upholstery, as well as a “welcome light show” programmed into the optional ambient lighting kit. Buyers can now opt for adaptive dampers, an enhancement that may mellow the CLA’s firm ride. As for the Edition: Orange CLA, just 750 will be made, based on the CLA250 and all-wheel-drive CLA250 4MATIC models.

The CLA’s hatchback sibling, the GLA250, receives as standard Mercedes-Benz’s newest infotainment system with a seven-inch display and a proper media interface, as well as keyless ignition, dual-zone climate control, and an adjustment for the driver’s seat cushion length. The rest of the GLA’s changes are even more minor, with multi-colored ambient lighting now part of the Interior package as well as being a standalone option; grey leather replacing the two-tone beige-and-black color scheme; a new dark-trim Night package like the CLA’s; a 180-degree view for the backup camera; and a new Kryptonite Green paint color that replaces last year’s Universe Blue.

Not exactly earth-shattering stuff, but meaningful improvements nonetheless; unfortunately, we won’t know how much the updated CLA and GLA cost until closer to their on-sale dates, but we do know that the twins’ more-powerful siblings, the CLA45 and GLA45 AMG models, are slated for a power bump for the same model year. There are no such updates in store for the 208-hp CLA or GLA.
