Mercedes CLE now offers something its BMW 4 Series rival can’t – plug-in hybrid power. This feature should help boost the appeal of Merc’s classy two-door, four-seat coupe among company car drivers. Under the bonnet of the new ‘CLE 300 e with EQ Hybrid Technology’, …
The new Mercedes-Benz CLE Cabriolet is bigger than both the C- and E-Class convertibles that it replaces. You can tell. The back seat is genuinely usable by adults, or as I found out, perfectly acceptable for installing a gigantic child seat. It wasn’t even hard to …
It seems churlish to describe an £80k vehicle as a ‘halfway house’, but that’s what you’re getting with the Mercedes CLE 53. It’s an accomplished cross-country cruiser, with comfort and refinement, but its character can’t quite stretch enough beyond that to deliver a true AMG experience. …
The new Mercedes-Benz CLE Cabriolet is available to order in the UK, with prices starting from £52,995 OTR for the CLE 200 AMG Line. Combining the expressive design of the CLE Coupé with a multi-layer fabric soft top that can be raised or lowered in …
The highly anticipated Mercedes-AMG CLE 53 4MATIC+ Cabriolet is now available for order. According to the press release of its maker, its prices start at €89,388.04.

There’s plenty to like with the Mercedes CLE Cabriolet; its well-appointed cabin and decent cruising refinement stand out. But even with mild-hybrid assistance, the four-cylinder engine in the CLE 300 can’t quite deliver the sort of effortless performance that a car like the CLE Cabrio deserves. …
In a time when many cars are discontinued in order to make way for electric replacements, Mercedes is taking a different path with the C-Class and E-Class coupes and convertibles. Rather, it is merging those two paths into one, and keeping it powered by internal combustion. …
The top version of the new CLE, the Mercedes-AMG CLE 63, will have a V8 engine with 48V mild hybrid technology and not the PHEV system from the AMG C 63 S E Performance, British magazine Autocar reports, citing Mercedes officials. Mercedes had begun an …
Though Mercedes-AMG has yet to confirm it, evidence is mounting that the upcoming CLE 63 coupe and convertible will be fitted with an engine that makes almost 100 fewer ponies than the one in the C 63 sedan. It sounds entirely counter-intuitive, but it’ll have …
Mercedes has ditched plans to stick a 2.0-litre PHEV in the upcoming AMG CLE 63. It will instead use a twin-turbocharged 4.0-litre V8 petrol. The C-Class became a four-pot-only affair in 2021 with the introduction of the 206 series. One year later, the GLC followed …
