With its fully electric soft top, capable of opening and closing within 20 seconds at speeds of up to 60 km/h, the CLE 200 Cabriolet offers a year-round open-air experience.

The standard AIRCAP electric wind deflector system and the AIRSCARF headroom heating system have been further developed to enhance comfort during open-top driving experience.

The standard fabric acoustic soft top, available in black, red or grey, plays a key role in its usability over the year. Its multi-layer structure with extensive insulation allows for optimal thermal comfort in all temperatures and reduces wind and driving noise. 

As the largest convertible in the mid-size segment, the CLE 200 Cabriolet offers generous space and comfort for four passengers. The vehicle measures 4,850 mm in length, 1,861 mm in width and 1,424 mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2,865 mm. These dimensions, coupled with an expanded boot capacity of 385 liters, make the CLE 200 Cabriolet a versatile choice for long-distance journeys.

The interior of the CLE 200 Cabriolet is a showcase of sporty luxury, featuring a 12.3-inch fully digital instrument display and an 11.9-inch central display that can be tilted to prevent glare when the top is down.

To prevent the leather upholstery from heating up under the sun, the seats have a special coating that reflects the sun’s near-infrared rays. As a result, the leather remains up to 12 degrees cooler in direct sunlight as compared to untreated standard leather, even with the top closed.

The dynamic ambient lighting, black Nappa leather upholstery and advanced MBUX infotainment system with third-party app integration all contribute to a highly personalised and interactive driving experience.

Under the hood, the CLE 200 Cabriolet is powered by a 2.0-liter inline four-cylinder engine, delivering 204hp and 320Nm of torque. This is complemented by an integrated starter generator that provides an additional 23hp and 205Nm of torque, ensuring a smooth and responsive drive.

In addition to the CLE 200 Cabriolet, Mercedes-Benz Singapore also announced the launch of the high-performance Mercedes-AMG CLE 53 4MATIC+ Coupé (pictured above), further expanding the CLE family.

This sporty and elegant two-door model combines the agility of the C-Class with the luxurious space of the E-Class, creating a vehicle that is both dynamic and refined.

Powered by a 3.0-liter inline six-cylinder engine, the CLE 53 delivers an impressive 449 hp and 560 Nm of torque, with the ability to generate an additional 23 hp and 205 Nm of torque through its integrated starter generator.

The fully variable AMG Performance 4MATIC+ all-wheel drive and the AMG SPEEDSHIFT TCT 9G transmission ensure that this model offers an exhilarating driving experience, with precise handling and rapid acceleration, achieving 0-100 km/h in just 4.2 seconds.

Visually, the CLE 53 4MATIC+ Coupé stands out with its distinctive AMG-specific design elements, including the A-shaped radiator grille, full-LED headlights and 20-inch wheels that give it a powerful presence on the road. The interior is equally impressive, featuring exclusive materials, the latest generation MBUX infotainment system and an array of AMG-specific displays and controls that enhance the driving experience.

“We have poured our hearts into the CLE range, with design, technology and comfort all taking precedence, to give our customers an unforgettable experience in these enthralling two-door beauties. At Mercedes-Benz, we are staying true to our goal of developing the most desirable cars in the world, and the Mercedes-AMG CLE 53 4MATIC+ Coupé and the Mercedes-Benz CLE Cabriolet are on the cutting edge of what we seek to bring to market, and we look forward to fulfilling the dreams of many of our customers in Singapore with them,” says Claudius Steinhoff, President and CEO of Mercedes-Benz Singapore.
