Only a few months after launching the CLE 53 in coupe form, Mercedes-Benz Australia has
announced local pricing and specifications for the CLE 53 Cabriolet, which is now available to order.

Priced from $175,600 plus on-road costs – or $16,700 more than the 53 coupe and $38,000 more
than the four-cylinder CLE 300 convertible – the AMG CLE 53 Cabriolet uses the same
turbocharged six-cylinder engine and 48V mild-hybrid drivetrain as the coupe.

Making 330kW of power and up to 600Nm of torque on overboost, the CLE 53 Cabriolet hits
100km/h in just 4.2 seconds – only 0.2 seconds slower than the lighter coupe. Power is sent to all
four wheels through a nine-speed automatic transmission.

Standard equipment on the CLE 53 includes 20-inch alloy wheels, automatic all-LED exterior
lighting, adaptive damping, rear-axle steering, the AMG Exterior Night Package 1 and 2, keyless
entry and start, and the company’s ‘Aircap’ electric wind deflector and the ‘Airscarf’ neck-level
heating and ventilation.

Inside features black leather upholstery with red stitching, carbon interior trim, a Nappa leather
steering wheel, 64-colour ambient lighting, a 12.3-inch digital driver’s display, an 11.9-inch
touchscreen with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, digital radio and a Burmester sound
system.

Safety equipment includes 10 airbags, autonomous emergency braking with pedestrian and cyclist
detection, adaptive cruise control with stop and go functionality, blind-spot monitoring with front and
rear cross-traffic alert, active speed limit assist, safe exit warning, lane keeping assistance,
adaptive lane guidance, traffic sign recognition, a 360-degree camera, front and rear parking
sensors and adaptive high beam.

Buyers wanting to personalise their CLE 53 Cabriolet can choose the $2,100 Plus Package with
heated and ventilated front seats, memory parking assistance, air-balance package and the
energising package plus.

The $8,900 Carbon Package is also available and includes carbon fibre trim on the steering wheel,
dashboard and doors, front splitter, mirror caps, lip spoiler and side sills.

AMG Performance Seats are also available for an extra $5,400.
