What is it? The Mercedes-AMG CLE 53 4MATIC+ Cabriolet – to use the full and unwieldy handle – is the convertible, AMG-fettled version of the CLE. This model has replaced the former C- and E-Class two-doors and, at 4853 millimetres bumper-to-bumper, it’s closer in length to the latter. As an AMG , it has a wider track, more muscular appearance (via a body kit, different grille, revised bonnet and 20-inch AMG-specific wheels) plus heightened performance, compared with the standard CLE.
What does it cost? From $175,000 plus on-road costs.
