Mercedes CLE Cabriolet Features
The new CLE is built on Mercedes’ Modular Rear Architecture (MRA) platform, which is shared with the existing C-Class and forthcoming next-generation. The CLE shares stylistic features with the outgoing E-Class coupe and cabriolet, including a wide grille with a shark-nose effect, a tall bonnet and an automated, multi-layered fabric hood that folds neatly into the trunk.
Its interior has the same design as the C-Class, with an 11.9-inch infotainment display in portrait mode and a 12.3-inch instrument cluster. Its newly designed front seats come standard with headrests, heating and four-way lumbar support.
The 2.0-litre four-cylinder turbo-petrol engine of the CLE Cabriolet 300, which is mated to a 48V mild hybrid system and produces 258 horsepower and 400Nm of maximum torque, has been introduced to the Indian market. The engine is connected to a 9-speed torque converter automatic transmission as standard. The CLE Cabriolet, according to Mercedes, can reach its maximum speed of 250 kph in just 6.6 seconds from zero to 100 kph.
