2025 Mercedes-Aamg Cle 53 Cabriolet | UK review

Mercedes -Ag Cle 53 is a car we are reasonably familiar with – and a mulon – on the pH is now. This Caprio was drove abroad, the coupe enjoyed a few months on the pH fleet, and in fact every Cle model. Including the lowest and four sixties, and it was somewhat admired. Don’t form anyone, for sure, but a mixture of style, performance and feeling of the occasion, and in AMG derivatives, Smarts made the right of the appropriate structure for some very attractive Mercedes – and in a completely new model.

After being immersed in the launch of the Cabriolet International, the CLE 53, the UK, arrived in a timely manner for the Heatwave wave. There can be no better time to see if it is worth a coupe, and if he can compete with more powerful alternatives-and if the different requirements of Mercedes Cabrioet are, both AMG-Dooor and Cle with four wheels can be balanced and respected. It does not seem to be the easiest question, and it should definitely be the reason that many cars of this type are rejected as appropriate enthusiastic machines – no fish or birds, because there is no better phrase.

Those who belong to the Cle look will dig the pieces. It is inevitable to be convertible, such as that gym that is chosen on the beach; You will not necessarily be called the car, but the muscle mass tends to attract the eye. As it did with the coupe, the broader tracks of the AMG model generate the type of positions that were rejected from the regular Cles. There is enough major here until it erupts. The lifting of the ceiling takes some smoke, although it is definitely a compromise that is worthy of the type of appearance from top to bottom.

The dropping of the cover can not be simpler, and with the presence of a collapse plate in anything up to 37 miles per hour, there is always a good time. The ceiling process is quiet like throwing leaves on your bed, and there is still a little to compete with the large -to -amg feeling with a million miles from the head room. In order to be fair to the painful air deviation painfully (the button for them is between the ceiling up and the roof down), it guarantees a remarkable difference in improvement without a roof, which makes a 70 -mile cruise per hour. Your Bonce gets the right amount of breeze, and soon becomes hypothetical to lift – it seems that the transferred “Pure” is more convertible more than compared. Fellow ceiling for a soft summit. There is no mistake in it in a metal roof, although he feels nothing but very luxurious.

Traditionally, one of the great convertible joys is the additional exposure to the engine business. Unfortunately, AMG does not completely provide this result, which is the main combustion sound is Huff and Puff of Turbos instead of the six straight. The exhaust roar is not all that raises, even in most of it – although the gearbox forces are very fun. AMG Sound Performance Sound (Yes, it’s a real thing) is not bad, as the last two -sessions were very convincing. But it is clear that BMW is still the company that must be overcome when it comes to Sronics in a row.

However, moderate 3.0 -liter hybrids remains a powerful engine, as modest electrical assistance really helps in the lower grades of the ReV group and provide Will to move along a large group of AMG – 2,110 kg with a driver, no less. Despite the weight gain and the head -cut, many about this Cabriolet feels knowledge of the solid surface, impressive: the weight of the guidance and the response is judged well, as the baffles are intelligently directed at the largest part, the brake pedal is strong, and there is an abundant grip. Nobody will at all guess the weight of the kirip, because gaming is guaranteed and the CLE changes impatiently – and you rarely want to get more strength as well, with the help of nine stacked proportions and fast animals.

What’s not ’53, however, is not besieged for a single convertible solution. If it is a world away from the bad old days of the fast soft peaks, there is blowing and shakes that must be tolerated. Cle feels a great feeling of the greater height and the fall of the road, less around the lumps and secondary bumps. The rear vision mirror is the most obvious gift, although the steering column sometimes feels a little filtration. It does not significantly detract from the overall experience – not at least because you should be realistic about what the four -seat open -seats can achieve – but it makes you less inclined to explore the conditions of the exotic drive. The most solid suspension of comfort only increases the disturbances, much better to use the individual drive setting to provide some credit for the driving set while keeping the comment in the most absorbed.

Our experimental car has been equipped with the Pro Performance package, the first time we tried Cle 53 in the UK with the option of 7500 pounds. It features a race motor, red calipper, a great group of AMG seats, a beautiful steering wheel, as well as dynamic motor holders and drift mode. It is a fully back wheel drive, instead of just a biased in the background as in some cases, Cle turns into … well, AMG more than ever. This is the root of the rooted car and control, as well as 295 rear tires divided and relatively modest (for AMG) 413 lb, that the two wheel drive does not make it in a lined phase. This means that there is some fun on a warm and dry runway, for sure, with a long wheelbase and a good strangulation, although it requires a large part of the commitment. It is possible that it is a box that can be left uninterrupted – but we recommend that you not sit in a car with the seats, otherwise it will be very difficult to resist it.

Another reason to avoid PPP is the simple truth that pushes Cle 53 towards the BMW M4 area. Add it to Night Edition Premium Plus Cabriolet as here with two other bits, and the Mercedes march is achieved 94,835 pounds sterling – the BMW starts at a price of 95330 pounds. Yes, this specifications are fully loaded for standard competition, but then the M4 does not require the thousands that are spent for the rear driving option. He has 530hp. And weighs 115 kg less – which must be the first time that the M3/4 generation is lighter than a competitor. This does not need to detract what is a fast, fast -implementing experience. It is luxurious and defeated when needed, capable and satisfied on a good path, and it is generally pleased to be present. This last thing is intangible, of course, but an important part of Caprio’s attractiveness; Each car without a roof is an object of desire and not necessary, after all. Beyond the steering wheel (or camera lens), Cle 53 is really desirable. Regardless of that it does not accurately pay the coupe – the feeling of satisfaction is more than sufficient compensation.
