Nothing says spring has sprung quite like a new drop-top Mercedes - the CLE is on sale now
Though Mercedes has now diversified into almost every possible automotive niche, it certainly still has areas of traditional expertise, those cars that Benz makes better than any other. Opulent drop-tops must surely as one of those niches: nobody does wind-in-the-air luxury quite like Mercedes. See the prices currently being asked for cabrio 124s and R107 SLs. has already proved itself so quietly impressive. It feels very Mercedes in all the right ways, so a lot is expected of the rag top.
That buys a 200 AMG Line, with 204hp and 236lb ft from a mild hybrid 2.0-litre turbo - meaning 147mph potential, and 0-62mph in 7.9 seconds. AMG Line spec brings 18-inch wheels, Thermatic climate control, 64-colour ambient lighting , LED headlights and a reversing camera. It can also be had with the 197hp, 324lb ft CLE 220 diesel, which is just as fast as the petrol while adding 15mpg to the WLTP official combined.
AMG Line Premium is the next rung up, which makes the wheels an inch bigger, the LED lights into DIGITAL LIGHT beacons, augmented reality for the nav and a Parking Package. It can be had with the 200 petrol engine and 220d , plus brings the more powerful engines into play: the 258hp CLE 300 costs £59,745, then the straight six, 381hp 450 coming in at £70,265.
Still with us? Good, plenty more to come. AMG Line Premium Plus adds £4k to the price of all engines, and brings with it 20-inch wheels, something called an Energizing Plus Package, a head-up display and a 17-speaker Burmester sound system. Expect that to be popular for the swankiest cabrio experience around.
Much better to spend the cash on some good colours inside and out. White is the only standard CLE paint, with a range of £715 metallics and the Manufaktur shades - including Patagonia Red - at £925. Black, red or grey are your choices for the roof, at no charge, albeit with ‘potential added costs due to additional required equipment’. Same inside, with black, white and tan upholstery offered. There’s going to be a CLE spec for everyone in there somewhere, certainly.
