The 2024 Mercedes-Benz CLE 450 4Matic Cabriolet Is A New Luxury Ragtop For Cruising in Style

The 4-seat luxury ragtop is a shrinking segment, but thankfully, #MercedesBenz is adding a new entry in the space with the introduction of the 2024 #CLEClassCabriolet. This new vehicle replaces the old C-Class and E-Class 2-doors and #CLE450Cabriolet is currently the most powerful and luxurious #CLEClass and just like the coupe, this model blends the size of the old E-Class 2-door with the more affordable price tag of the C-Class coupe.

I'm grateful for cars like this still exist in a world of monotony of crossover suvs.

A little splash of glamour in a sea of grey Crossovers and SuVs.
MB merged the C & E class to make the CLK back in the late 90s, so this really is the third generation CLK

Your camera guy was absolutely right about the rear end looking like the Toyota Solara

[axle]

This car's rear end looks great and I don't see the comparison to Solara much. Any car's angle can resemble another random car.

Excellent review as typical Sofyan. I really appreciate the time you take to make your video the best they can be and show the car in its best light. The vehicles are always clean and framed against a nice back drop. It puts the focus on the car instead of the dirt and crap left the car.
This is not usually the case with most reviewers. I watch a number of car reviewers and many are good but there is only one number 1 !

A few little fun facts for context of this vehicle…I haven’t read a comment talking about the spirit of this car being one with the old CLK…which if you look at MBs design language of the time, the CLK adopted more of a C design up front and E out back..this was also a time for Mercedes’ where they didn’t have dedicated E and C class cabriolets…
When they did have a dedicated cabriolet E, it’s platform was majorly and adaptation of the C class architecture though it was distinctively “E” in its styling! I love this thing…they can come down a few notches on price though..

I love this car. It is my dream car. I want a brand new 2024 Mercedes Benz CLE Convertible 450.

5:13 Jared is spot on. The rear looks very much like a 2nd generation (2004-08) Solara.

[thomasgriego]

The taillight looks so similar to Lexus taillight.
It’s actually not a bad idea for Toyota and Lexus to bring back the Solara/SC430 As a luxury convertible. I think it would do pretty decent. And yes, it would not look much different than the Mercedes and probably would cost about half the price. Not a bad idea.

With the electric motor providing torque at 0 rpm idk if brake torque launch method is needed, anyone can confirm? I just bought a CLE 450 and haven’t tried. Great review gents, I went from a 2018 C300 to the CLE 450. Engine was part of the decision as a 4 cyl turbo is fine for commuting but the 6 cyl turbo in a different world for spirited driving. I’ve watched I think every CLE review and build quality does’t get mentioned too often but I want to say the build quality is excellent. No creaks, squeaks, fabric issues, etc. CLE is a gem.

Beauty, elegance. The most attractive Mercedes.

Malibu is Always so nice and Quiet this time of year 🤣

[Scotty_B]

I can't unsee the two vents and the cubby in the backseat looking like a frightened robot.

[TonyKimtheamusementparkfan]

I'm waiting to see when you'll review the CLE 53 AMG version of this car, with this same engine boosted to 443 HP

[randymurray]

I like when you do your review's with out a side kick. He distracts from what I'm expecting you to say. Nice car

[georgearevalo]

Awesome review..not fond of that rear..

[Youtuber_YusukeFromGermany]

So beautiful coupe/cabriolet! This is what makes Mercedes beautiful for me! Not SUVs!

[travisbruce]

Awesome car but i wish it had the e class interior and thats wild that plastic at the bottom of the door for 85g's, last e class coupe was all good material on the door. This to me is basically a c class with e class power. Interior not adequate for 85k and thats that price, i seen 1 for 91k which is crazy. Mercedes new gen cars make me appreciate my cls and other previous gen Mercedes. These new ones are not it. Technology is dope and engine engineering is amazing but everything else is not

This is not a replacement for the E-coupe. It's a long C-coupe. I think it looks great, but the interior and driving dynamics (other than access to the 6cyl) are identical to the C-class. In fact, it's the same wheelbase as the C-sedan. The problem is that the interior of the current w206 C-class is beyond abysmal, low-quality, cheap trash; it's not even good enough for an A-class-tier car. I have an E-coupe and would never replace it with this. Don't listen to the marketing. It does get access to some E-class features that the C-class doesn't get, but doesn't mean it's upmarket. I guess if all you care about is having good looks and a Mercedes badge, you're doing well because you get the extra rear legroom compared to the outgoing C-coupe. However, I actually care about interiors and think Mercedes should be ashamed because this is unacceptable.

I'll take an LC500. The build quality is impeccable, it's built at the Tahara plant and it's got a bulletproof screaming 5.0 L V8.
