Mercedes-AMG announces the **CLE 53 4MATIC+ Coupe, a sporty and elegant two-door model. The model combines the best of both worlds: the agility and sportiness of a C-Class car, and the space of an E-Class car. 3The 0-litre inline-6 engine is equipped with twin superchargers and is equipped with an electric additional compressor, providing a powerful power output of 449 hp and a maximum torque of 56 Nm (600 Nm when overcharged). The integrated starter generator provides additional power and torque and is connected to an AMG Speedshift TCT 9G gearbox and a fully variable AMG Performance 4MATIC+ all-wheel drive system.
The design of the front apron is impressive, with an A-shaped bulge that forms a large air intake. This also applies to external air intakes with two crossed slats. The protruding large front and rear fenders and 19-inch rims create aggressive styling that is as good as its performance. The muscular rear emphasises the car's spaciousness with smooth surfaces, smooth transitions, and split LED lights with three-dimensional light bodies.
The interior features exclusive ARTICO leatherette micro-cut black microfiber integrated seats and the latest generation MBUX infotainment system. It was equipped with 123-inch gauge and vertically mounted 11The 9-inch central control screen makes the characteristics of the vehicle clear at a glance. In each door, a band of light runs along the contours of the armrests and waistline to the rear area.
*The CLE 53 4MATIC+ features a completely revamped 30-litre M 256 inline-six turbocharged engine. In combination with the new electric compressor, the boost pressure is increased, providing a high torque of 560 Nm in continuous operation and 600 Nm in overboost for up to 12 seconds. In addition, the second-generation integrated starter generator (ISG) handles hybrid functions, providing a short-term power boost of 23 hp and 205 Nm of torque, with a maximum output of 449 hp.
3.The 0-lift engine is mated to an AMG Speedshift TCT 9G gearbox for optimized shift times, improved reaction times, dual-clutch capability, and multiple downshifts. The top speed is electronically limited to 250 kmh and can be increased to 270 km/h with the optional AMG Driver Package. There are five driving modes: "Slippery", "Comfort", "Sport", "Sport+" and "Normal".
On the chassis, the AMG Performance 4MATIC+ all-wheel drive system combines optimum traction and high driving safety to provide dynamic driving pleasure in all conditions, not only on dry roads, but also on wet or slippery roads. Through intelligent control, the system continuously distributes according to the situation. Its characteristics also change depending on the driving mode, with the driving behavior changing to rear-oriented after the ESP motion setting and the behind-wheel drive driving in drift mode over the entire speed range.
The AMG Ride Control chassis developed by Affalter** is clamped with a sports spring damper device and a steel suspension with adaptive adjustable damping, combining excellent driving dynamics with a high level of ride comfort. In addition, the shock absorber characteristics can be selected from three levels: Comfort, Sport and Sport+, which makes it possible to significantly distinguish between high comfort and sporty driving dynamics during long drives.
The rear axle steering system for controlling the rear wheels is also standard, with a maximum steering capacity of 25 degrees, which greatly improves cornering performance, reduces steering force, and improves maneuverability. The turning radius is noticeably smaller when turning or stopping. In addition, when the speed exceeds 100 km h, the rear wheels rotate parallel to the front wheels, which actually lengthens the wheelbase (up to 0.).7 degrees) and improved driving stability.
