Mercedes-Benz introduces the AMG CLE 53 coupe, which is considered an extension of the C-Class and E-Class coupes. It was officially launched in India in August 2025. It has the sportiness of the C-class and the comfort of the E-class, making AMG CLE 53 a perfect combination of both. Priced at Rs 1.35 crores, Mercedes has launched this hybrid performance, two-door coupe, which will stand out with sophistication in the Indian luxury automotive market.
Mercedes-AMG CLE 53 Coupe Price in India
The ex-showroom price of Mercedes AMG CLE 53 is ₹1.35 crore in India. The direct competition can be seen with the BMW M2 or M4.
Power-packed Engine and Mileage
AMG CLE 53 Coupe has a 3.0-liter twin-turbo, inline 6 cylinder petrol engine, and it is combined with a 48V mild-hybrid system. Both combined deliver 443 hp of power and around 560 Nm of torque. Mercedes claims that the speed of the AMG CLE 53 Coupe can go from 0-100 km/h in just 4.2 seconds, and the top speed can go around 250 km/h.
Exterior Design and Color Options
Since CLE is somewhat a combination of C-class and comfort of the E-class, it does have some similarity to the C-class design, but it still retains its individuality. The highlight of the car is the Panamericana grille; very elegant and very stylish, and right in the middle, its signature three-pointed star logo is positioned. The wide air intake for engines and the splitter below the number plate manage airflow.
The color options are perfectly contrasted with the rest of the body. The headlamps have digital LED, which is very creatively designed like a brow. The standard wheels are 19 inches, but the noticeable part is the optional 20-inch alloy wheels. The CLE 53 looks slim yet muscular, the color contrasts, the tail lamps, the head lamps, everything is perfectly coordinated to make it look like a luxury sports car.
The Mercedes AMG CLE 53 offers a bold color palette in the Indian market, and those are:
- Sun Yellow
- Patagonia Red Metallic
- Spectral Blue
- Opalite White
- Alpine Grey
- Obsidian Black
- Premium “Magno” and Graphite Grey
Premium Interior With Safety Features
Mercedes is known for luxury and the premium features that it offers, and the CLE 53, being a mid-tier AMG, justifies the same.
There is an 11.9-inch portrait-oriented touchscreen that connects with music and navigation. There is another 12.3-inch digital driver display for the driver to check on the key riding information while driving. The interior is enhanced with 64 colour ambient lighting, which adds to the sophisticated vibe of the interior.
There is an AMG head-up display so that you don’t even need to look down for navigation or to know the direction while driving. Wireless charging system, OTA software updates add to the convenience of the drive.
The steering wheel has a unique four-spoke design. It has two small rotary dials: one of them is to switch between driving modes, and the other one is to adjust suspension stiffness or the exhaust sound. It is tricky to use it sometimes, and it is not usually preferred.
The Mercedes AMG CLE 53 Coupe comes with essential safety features. It has 8 airbags and a 360° view camera. It also has other features like ABS, EBD, and TPMS. The CLE 53 comes with the needed safety measures, like the ADAS features, to facilitate your driving and to protect your journey.
When everybody thought that C-class and E-class models would be missed in the market, that’s when Mercedes-Benz introduced the perfected combination of both. Launch at a premium price, Mercedes AMG CLE 53 Coupe offers performance, safety, and classiness.
