The most incredible feeling one can get in a convertible is driving with the top down. There is nothing but infinite headroom, blue skies, and the world all around you. Even driving around the Metroplex, that feeling is unlike anything else.
That’s the experience behind the wheel of a 2024 Mercedes-Benz CLE 450 Cabriolet. Top-down driving that is enjoyable anywhere you go.
Jalopnik recently had one in for a review. The reviewer stated that he actually loved it.
What’s not to love about the 2024 CLE 450 Cabriolet?
It offers the driver and its passengers a lot in terms of comfort, luxury, technology, and safety, which is expected in every Mercedes-Benz. Yet, the CLE 450 Cabriolet is exceptional in delivering all of this with either the top down or up.
When you choose the CLE 450 Cabriolet, you get the turbocharged 3.0-liter in-line six-cylinder engine with a 48-volt mild-hybrid system. All told, this puts out a healthy 375 horsepower and 369 pound-feet of torque. This engine also comes with the environmentally friendly ECO-Start ® engagement.
This power comes on smoothly through the 9G-TRONIC nine-speed automatic transmission. It makes the task of driving with the roof open a breeze. When the weather changes, just put up the top and let the 4MATICâ all-wheel drive system handle the road in all conditions.
If you’re the brave soul who defies the weather, the CLE 450 Cabriolet has you covered. Wind is deflected by the AIRCAPâ, which is deployed when the top is down. Stay warm with the AIRSCARFâ, keeping your neck – and the rest of your body – from being windblown or cold.
The rest of your body also has its own climate control. Heated seats are standard, but you can add ventilation and a massaging function. ENERGIZING AIR CONTROL keeps the cabin’s climate balanced and comfortable.
When you raise the top back up, you are protected by the triple-layer "acoustic" fabric soft top. It is raised and lowers in seconds by just one button.
One question convertible customers ask us is about body rigidity. Jalopnik happily reports that the CLE 450 Cabriolet is “stiff.” They found that the body and its platform could not flex compared to other convertibles. Mercedes-Benz has always engineered its vehicles—built with or without roofs—to be constructed so that the structure remains unbending and strong regardless of purpose.
Inside the CLE 450 Cabriolet, you will enjoy the finest Mercedes-Benz has to offer. The fusion of technology, driver assistance, and safety features is melded to the driver's expectations. This is why the CLE 450 Cabriolet is considered “the best or nothing” when it comes to top-down driving.
