CLE Cabriolet

Sunlightenment

DESIGN

In a sense, the tradition of open-air motoring in a Mercedes-Benz started with the very first automobile. And with every generation, it grew more elegant, more exuberant, and more exquisite. It's time for a new grand opening.

Romance for the digital age

The spacious, stylish CLE Cabriolet offers generous room for four with a distinct driver focus. Its digital cockpit pairs a reconfigurable 12.3-inch instrument cluster and a subtly angled 11.9-inch multimedia touchscreen.

Tailored to suit any season

The triple-layer "acoustic" fabric soft top is offered in three rich colours. It lowers in seconds via one button to reveal the richly appointed cabin. Open-pore woods and modern metals complement a spectrum of upholsteries.

Comfort in every climate

Power front seats feature heating and AIRSCARF, innovated by Mercedes-Benz to let you keep the top down longer. Options include ventilation and massage, as well as the enhanced air quality of Energizing Air Control.

Ambience in new dimensions

A network of LEDs can outline the flowing cabin in any of 64 colours you can personalize. Available active features can offer helpful alerts. As you enter the CLE, a field of animated stars can welcome you to the experience.

Enlightenment before your eyes

LED headlamps feature automatic highbeams and distinctive Daytime Running Lamps. Optional DIGITAL LIGHT headlamps feature 84 individual LEDs per module. ^{Disclaimer[1]}

Enticement for admiring gazes

The AMG Line option pairs muscular styling with AMG wheels, a sport-tuned suspension and sporty cockpit elements. The Night Package adds gloss black exterior details.

Inspiration for second glances

CLE wheels range from a standard 18-inch design up to 20 inches in a variety of colours and designs. AMG wheels, 19s or 20s, complement the sporty AMG Line styling. ^{Disclaimer[2]}

INNOVATION

Artificial intelligence and genuine ingenuity unite in technologies that can anticipate your desires, adapt to your ways, and even advance over time.

Digitally enhanced

The Mercedes-Benz User Experience (MBUX) features an even more intuitive digital voice assistant. Standard MB Navigation can be enhanced to overlay turn instructions on live video of turns. A colour Head-Up Display is also available. ^{Disclaimer[3]} ^{Disclaimer[4]}

Audibly augmented

Speakers integrated into the front seats help make the available Burmester® 3D Surround Sound more immersive, especially driving top-down. Sound Personalization lets you create and store your own listening preferences. ^{Disclaimer[5]}

Redefining routine

Your CLE can use your fingerprint to activate your personal profile. It can also automate some of your routines, linking settings and situations or locations using customizable templates, such as heating the seats anytime it gets chilly.

Untethered connections

Phone charging, Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto are all wireless, so you can stay connected without needing to plug in. ^{Disclaimer[6]} ^{Disclaimer[7]}

Visionary vigilance

Standard and available driver assists keep their virtual eyes on the world around you. Standard Exit Warning Assist can also warn passengers if it's unsafe to exit. Advanced options can bring driving ease to traffic jams and lane changes. ^{Disclaimer[8]}

PERFORMANCE

There's something electric in the air when you drive a CLE. Quite literally, thanks to turbo and electric boosts. Standard all-wheel drive is more evidence that this is a cabriolet designed to be enjoyed year-round.

Refreshing and resounding

Turbo torque inspires the 255-hp inline-4 CLE 300 4MATIC to perform. In addition, its 48-volt mild hybrid systems can add a burst of power gas-free, along with exceptionally smooth ECO-Start/Stop engagement.

Surefooted and quick-witted

Standard 4MATIC all-wheel drive can continuously send the engine's torque to the wheels that can best turn it into traction. Lightweight and nimble, it can add to you confidence on wet roads and to your exuberance in dry corners. ^{Disclaimer[9]}

Eager and easygoing

With an electronic column selector, shift paddles on the steering wheel, and three overdrive ratios, the 9G-TRONIC 9-speed automatic transmission offers brisk acceleration on demand, breezy efficiency when cruising.

Flexible and fun

DYNAMIC SELECT lets you retune the CLE's character with the tap of a console button. Selectable drive modes can vary the shifting, throttle, steering and more. Modes include ECO, Sport, and an Individual program you can customize.
