I've never understood the point of small sedans. It's not like folks will be comfortable in the back. Might as well get the coupe
There has always been a market for small sedans or subcompact. First they tend to be cheaper/cheapest in the car brands line-up as evidence by the likes of 1-series, A3, etc... This isn't just for luxury brand either. Toyota had the Tercel and then the Yaris, Nissans Versa, Hindas Fit, etc...
In this case, this is a subcompact (actually the CLA is probably more of a compact, comparable the size of a Corolla/Civic? Most are saying it is just slightly smaller than the current C-Class, which is much roomier than the IS) sports sedan. Also, some people just prefers sedans over coupes the same way you prefer coupes over sedans.
