When you’re in a hurry to feel the wind in your hair, few cars do it better than the new 2025 Mercedes-AMG CLE53 Cabriolet. Want to cruise stylishly down the boulevard? No problem. Need a car for a quiet and scenic highway drive?

Today, the Mercedes droptop range is pared back to just two: the 2+2-seat SL roadster, which focuses firmly on the top of the market, and the four-passenger CLE Cabriolet, which has just added this range-topping Mercedes-AMG CLE53 trim.

With the reveal of the CLE63 imminent, the ‘does it doesn't it’ Mercedes-AMG V8 speculation will shortly come to an end

The 2025 Mercedes-AMG CLE53 Cabriolet is the new top offering in the CLE convertible range. It sits above the CLE450 and CLE300 convertibles. The 2025 Mercedes-AMG CLE53 Cabriolet starts at $83,750. As in the other CLE models, seating is for four. AMG Performance front seats with aggressive side bolsters are available.

2025 Mercedes-AMG CLE53 Cabriolet's AMG-style fascia, vertical-slat grille, and swollen front and rear fenders distinguish it from the lesser CLE450 and CLE300 models.
