Mercedes-AMG continues to redefine open-top driving experiences with the introduction of the 2025 Mercedes-AMG CLE 53 Cabriolet. Combining the exhilarating performance of a 443 horsepower mild-hybrid engine with the liberating sensation of a fabric top, this latest addition to the AMG lineup promises to deliver an unmatched blend of power and luxury.
Power and Performance
At the heart of the CLE 53 Cabriolet lies a electrified twin-turbo 3.0-liter straight six-cylinder engine, shared with its coupe counterpart and the E53 sedan. This potent powerplant churns out an impressive 443 horsepower and up to 600 Nm of torque, ensuring blistering acceleration and dynamic performance on demand.
Enhancing its eco-conscious credentials, the CLE 53 features a mild-hybrid system, harnessing additional power from an integrated starter generator. This not only boosts performance with an extra 17 kW (23 hp) of power and 205 Nm of torque but also contributes to the overall efficiency of the vehicle.
Design and Styling
True to its AMG heritage, the CLE 53 Cabriolet boasts a striking exterior design that exudes athleticism and sophistication. From its aggressive grille to its quad round tailpipes, every element of the exterior reflects AMG's commitment to performance.
However, what truly sets the Cabriolet apart is its electrically retractable fabric roof, allowing drivers to seamlessly transition from enclosed comfort to open-air freedom with the push of a button. Combined with a redesigned rear deck, the CLE 53 Cabriolet embodies the spirit of top-down motoring in its purest form.
Luxurious Comfort and Technology
Step inside the CLE 53 Cabriolet, and you're greeted by a wealth of luxury and technology. The interior features AMG-exclusive equipment, including a free-standing 12.3-inch fully digital driver display and an 11.9-inch driver-oriented central display, providing essential information and entertainment at your fingertips.
The seats, upholstered in ARTICO man-made leather and black MICROCUT microfibre, offer both comfort and support, while dynamic ambient lighting sets the mood for any journey. Additionally, advanced features such as AIRCAP® and AIRSCARF® ensure year-round driving comfort, allowing occupants to enjoy open-top motoring even in cooler temperatures.
Performance and Handling
Equipped with a fully variable all-wheel-drive system and active rear-axle steering, the CLE 53 Cabriolet delivers exceptional traction and agility in any driving situation. The AMG RIDE CONTROL suspension, with adaptive adjustable damping, strikes the perfect balance between comfort and performance, ensuring a smooth and engaging driving experience.
Furthermore, the AMG DYNAMIC SELECT driving programs allow drivers to tailor the car's characteristics to their preferences, from efficient and comfortable to highly dynamic. Whether cruising along scenic coastal roads or tackling challenging mountain passes, the CLE 53 Cabriolet offers an exhilarating driving experience like no other.
Safety and Innovation
In addition to its performance prowess, the CLE 53 Cabriolet prioritizes safety and innovation. Targeted reinforcement of the body-in-white, combined with a rollover protection system, ensures exceptional structural integrity and occupant protection, even in the event of an accident.
Furthermore, advanced driver-assistance systems such as PRE‑SAFE® and a comprehensive array of airbags provide peace of mind on every journey, while features like HANDS-FREE ACCESS and KEYLESS-GO enhance convenience and ease of use.
