The inclusion of a Mild Hybrid Electric Vehicle (MHEV) system and an integrated starter/alternator ensures that power delivery is both immediate and smooth, perfectly complementing the Sporty Engine Sound that hums during spirited drives.

Even with the top down, the MBUX voice activated audio controls allow you to adjust your playlist or find a destination simply by saying Hey Mercedes.

Comfort & Interior

The interior of this convertible is a masterclass in luxury, featuring a bold Power Red/ Black Leather upholstery that creates a striking contrast against the Metal Weave Trim. Both the driver and front passenger are treated to Heated Front Seats with 4-way power lumbar support and 10-way directional controls, ensuring perfect ergonomics for long drives. To extend the convertible season, the AIRSCARF neck and shoulder heating system wraps you in a warm breeze, while the Heated Steering Wheel and Heated front windshield jets provide additional comfort during cooler mornings.

The Power convertible roof operates with precision, and the AIRCAP automatic wind blocker ensures the cabin remains quiet and calm even at highway speeds. With Selectable color ambient lighting and MB-Tex upholstered surfaces, the interior feels like a bespoke lounge designed for relaxation.

Safety & Driver Assistance

Mercedes-Benz continues its legacy of protection with a comprehensive suite of safety technologies in the CLE 300. The Active Brake Assist system provides forward collision mitigation and pedestrian detection, acting as a second set of eyes on the road. Navigating tight spaces is made simple with the Parking Package, which includes PARKTRONIC front and rear parking sensors and Active Parking Assist to help guide the vehicle into spots automatically.

The Blind Spot Assist and Exit Warning Assist systems provide crucial alerts when changing lanes or exiting the vehicle near traffic.

Furthermore, the GUARD 360 security system and the Mercedes-Benz Emergency Call Service provide peace of mind whether the vehicle is parked or in motion.

Dressed in a sophisticated Graphite Gray Metallic, the CLE 300 4MATIC exudes an aura of modern elegance. This model features the AMG Line Exterior and Night Package, which adds high-gloss black elements and a more aggressive stance. The vehicle sits proudly on 20 inch AMG Multispoke Black wheels wrapped in high-performance tires, perfectly filling the wheel arches. The AMG spoiler lip and chrome grille style add a touch of athleticism to the classic convertible proportions.

Lighting is handled by the advanced DIGITAL LIGHT system with projections, complemented by LED daytime running lights and Auto High-beam Headlights. The black soft top integrates seamlessly with the body lines, featuring a glass rear window for improved durability and visibility.
