Mercedes-Benz CLE 2024– car dimensions: 4853 mm long, 1935 mm wide and 1435 mm high. Unladen weight is 2,110 kg. Braked towing is 1,800 kg.
The cabin pairs a 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster with an 11.9-inch central touchscreen running MBUX, including wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto as standard. Dual-zone automatic climate control is fitted, along with heated front seats. Standard driver aids include Active Brake Assist, Blind Spot Assist, Active Lane Keeping Assist, PARKTRONIC with Active Parking Assist, and a reversing camera (often 360-degree surround view on this model). Basic cruise control (TEMPOMAT) is standard. adaptive DISTRONIC comes in the optional Driver Assistance Package. AIRSCARF neck heating and AIRCAP wind deflector make open-top driving practical year-round.
Boot space is 385 litres with the roof up and rear seats in place, dropping to 295 litres with the roof down. An electric cargo divider separates the folded top. The 60:40 split-folding rear seats expand capacity for longer items and can be released from the boot.
Braked towing capacity is 1800 kg and unbraked is 750 kg. Payload is listed at 380 kg. The AMG RIDE CONTROL adaptive suspension is standard but is tuned for performance rather than heavy work use. No specific heavy-duty cooling or reinforced suspension for towing is noted.
Sport seats with strong lateral support come standard in MB-Tex/microfiber or available leather with a special coating that stays up to 12 degrees cooler in sun. Power multi-way front seats with memory and four-way lumbar are standard. AIRCAP wind deflector and AIRSCARF neck heating make top-down driving usable year-round. The multi-layer acoustic soft top keeps the cabin quiet when closed. Optional multicontour seats add massage and adjustable bolsters for longer trips.
WLTP combined fuel use 9.3-9.8 l/100 km. EPA around 19 city/26 hwy/22 combined mpg
Premium unleaded required. tank capacity 17.2 gal or about 65-66 litres
ASSYST Plus flexible service: Service A about 10,000 miles or 1 year, then alternating A/B
Eleven airbags standard including centre airbag and rear head airbags
PRE-SAFE system and rollover protection with reinforced A-pillars standard
4-year/50,000-mile new vehicle limited warranty in US markets
The mild-hybrid 3.0-litre inline-six needs premium unleaded and returns WLTP combined figures of 9.3-9.8 l/100 km or EPA estimates near 19/26/22 mpg. Tank size is 17.2 gallons or roughly 65-66 litres for solid range on longer drives.
Servicing follows the ASSYST Plus system that adjusts based on use. Typical first Service A falls around 10,000 miles or one year, with oil and filter, fluid checks, tyre inspection and soft-top mechanism check. Service B follows at roughly 20,000 miles or two years and adds cabin filter and brake fluid. AMG-specific fluids apply.
Safety kit is extensive as standard: eleven airbags covering front, side, curtain, knee, centre between front seats and rear head protection, plus PRE-SAFE that pretensions belts and readies the car. Active Brake Assist, blind-spot monitoring, lane-keeping and attention assist are included. Rollover protection deploys behind the rear seats with strong A-pillars. No dedicated cabriolet crash rating is published, though related coupe testing exists.
The multi-layer acoustic soft top opens or closes in about 20 seconds up to 60 km/h and needs regular seal and mechanism checks at service. AIRCAP and AIRSCARF keep open-air use practical in cooler weather. Keep the top clean and lubricated as directed to maintain quiet closed-cabin driving and weather sealing.
